Every Picture Tells a Story concerned mother scolding her child the roaring of the crowd gone wild the melting sun setting into the sea an old drunk in the bushes taking a *** a weeping soldier sitting on his helmet standing in line waiting for a permit pitching a tent in a national park searching for your dog in the dark migrant workers tending a garden prisoner of the state pleading for a pardon solar flares lighting up the sky licking your lips for that apple pie city workers digging up the street marathon runner with blisters on her feet working the formula in an algebra class sipping wine from a long stemmed glass walking the streets looking for a job toothless old man eating corn on the cob loosing your home to a banker of greed growing your future from a single seed climbing a mountain all the way to the top keeping the faith until you're about to drop going out in a blaze of glory you can find a picture in every story Morpheus aka Gomer LePoet...
