it'll look to be a long slow summer, feeling empty. looking empty. and somehow getting jammed packed. not enough time to breathe, to sleep, to sit still and be quiet. i've read 2 books...need new sneakers 'cause the miles have piled up and worn them down... the heels of my feet tell me. underneath my patella tells me. i don't need to hear it twice.

did you ever walk happily into a huge mistake? the pie in the face is coming...
the big anvil on the ole head...the hard stinging of a slap in the mouth...the crushing of heart/soul muscle fibers underneath steeltoed boots...

shock and awe baby. shock and awe.

oh the soliloquys i've recited. oh the riot acts...
the magical mixing of stray hairs and blood and spit...
the big f-off waiting for the gun...
~~~
oh hell.
i bark a loud bark but deep down inside, i'm still a huge and hopeful fan of Love. whether you get mowed down or do the mowing...it never really matters...
it hurts like hell, you move on, and then you get that bit of hope going...
as i get older, i'm beginning to laugh at myself. :-)
Yes. I am a true blue sucker for LOVE. it really is the only thing that makes living on this planet worth it. whether it comes from a soul-mate, parent, pet and/or friend...

to those that trample my fire...it only burns all the brighter.

    Only love hurts that badly, but only love is worth it.
