You know through all the time that has passed and all the experience that I have gained. I honestly thought I would have grown past this all. Yet I feel that warm gush of memories. Like a steaming bite of food. Too hot to swallow yet too stupid to spit it out - or in the company of pretentious ***** Either way I can't help thinking I should of learned by now. After Zoe and Nanette...and Claire...Rene, Beth, and so many more. I still fall into the same gear. Down the same path. And always wonder why I hit the dead end. and the bitter sweet irony is that I know of the on-coming demise. But that's what we do. Doing the same thing over and over hoping for a different result. This poem has no message. Just thought that by sharing my "idiocracy" with you, that maybe you won't experience the same. Just maybe.
