This and That
As promised, I finally sat down tonight and typed up some of the miscellaneous scraps I found the other day. Before I knew it, there were 10 pages! So I stopped there.
You Set Me Free
Never will there be a day
when I don’t taste your talent,
when I am not set free
by the thought of you.

Sad
I was standing at the front window
peering into a funky little antique shop
and watching their reflections as they passed.
“She don’t believe in his dreams anymore,”
one said to the other.
I paused, stunned.
I can’t imagine that.
I will always believe in your dreams.
I promise you that.

Waivering Faith
In the guts of a God
that knows no grace,
is a heart of eternal flame
dressed in thorns
*
Ill Humor
Self-fulfilling prophecies,
the ultimate ironies
of fate’s ill sense of humor
*
Overheard
“I’d totally do acid and shit, except I don’t have access to it” – a 12 year old on the sidewalk smoking a cigarette as cheap as her eyeliner.
