Does it seem that way when you've been awake for an hour and its already been a ****** long day, does it ever seem that way to you?

Doing my best because a change is as good as a rest.

I'd like to think but then again I'd like to do lots of things that are beyond me, but beyond me is where I find lots of like-minded company,

am I rambling?
I looked and thought he looks like me

amazing what you see in the mirror.

But that's only a reflection of what goes on in the mind of John, it's like a windmill up here, sails going around, corn being ground into the flower of my youth.

it doesn't do to be namby-pamby about the nitty gritty when you live in this city, you have to take the rough with the rougher get tough and be tougher or drown and suffer the fate that would await you if you were honest and decent, from the back row   (again) he shouts, like a good Catholic or Protestant?

Good God I reply, I'd rather dye my hair green than to be seen as one of them or perhaps it's one of those who knows

and in the mirror, I look again and see the rain pouring down because it wasn't the mirror it was the window and do you know I wasn't surprised at all.
If forever is the distance between now and never how long will it take to get there?

some things are intolerable

I'm still awake and it's still night,

years ago my Dad said that if I swallowed apple pips trees would grow in my stomach, I swallowed them anyway and no trees ever grew, I think Dad knew that and was kidding me.
When eventually came,
we eventually gave it another name
for convenience, they told me,
but I finally understood
that nothing good comes from eventually
when it becomes known as the certainty.

So
now I'm waiting for the Mayan calendar to kick in.

She in her wisdom tells me
it's a certainty
that if I don't go back to sleep
I'll be tired later on.

eventually, I will.
The Salvation Army came storming in
the Major ordered a pint of gin,
that was his personal
War Cry.

Many pretended not to hear,
drowning the noise out
while drinking the beer,

I was looking at a good-looking
majorette
who got me to put a penny in
her tin ( not a euphemism )

the Major ordered another pint of gin
I think
I like him,
but I like her more.
