We look at the differences and wonder did we make one of those.

Who knows what the difference will be in the twenty second century ?
not me.

Thinking that the difference is what makes a difference is definitely different if only to the intransigent.
I feign indifference which is definitely different.

Trample down the outcast and
cast them out of the community
and at times isn't this what we see?

But whatever you think
there is a missing link
and tag
you're it.
what if the wind changed and your face never stayed the way it was? Is that a lie that your elders told to keep you smiling?
well,
I look at some people and figured it worked.

all those tales they told
like
keep looking in the mirror and you'll get old
well.
that one definitely worked,

so
there is some truth and I should have listened
potatoes now grow in my ears,
I should have washed them,
square eyes because I watched too much television,
monsters under the bed, and therein lies another tale.
The first day of the ninth month in the year of two thousand and twenty five and if you're alive and awake, take a moment to give thanks that you're here.

But remember
we're all installations in a gallery run by the big corporations, and they hang us when and where they can.

Good,
now that's out of the way, we can get on with the day, even though the day happens to be a Monday.
Another pest
friend request
your profile is so cool

oh yeah!

I do not believe in
those things she said that she sees in
me

scam?

and another thing
I have thoughts that are older than her.

block
shock
horror and tomorrow
another pest

my profile must be the best

haha
coffee time.
Ready and I'm waiting here
for you to whisper in my ear
those three words
that we both hold dear,
'time for coffee'

Ah!, but not the 'Bisto' one
who remembers that?
and now
I can't remember
where I was going
with this.

A bit like life
we
set off with good intentions
and get sidetracked.

Now I'm back
*** in hand
no!
not that kind of ***

the coffee ***.

She says,
Oh Sugar,
and I wonder
does
She mean me
or is She
swearing?
.. and then
She planted in me
the seeds of a thought
of where I could be
and then
I grew.
Did you ever do that thing
you never thought
that you would want to do?

it's not that important
it doesn't matter
it's not an Earth-shattering thing
not the church
nor the bells that ring
but
if you did
and it's everything to you
do it again.
