AGAIN


What are you doing, he asked.

I replied, Sitting in the dark,

Alone,

wishing I could get rid of

The blackheads on my forehead,

the tickling in my ears,

cease scratching my ankle hives

And eat less

While solving the ills of the world

Before sitting in the dark,

Again.

  5. Back in my youth and days of doing acid we easily solved the world's problems. Trouble was, we could never remember the solutions when we came back down.

  7. Lovely photo of you. I don't think I've seen this one before. I've just woke from a brief nap here at the computer. Sewed two rows on the quilt this morning and will put another two together before the end of the day. Take care and I'll do the same.
