~~~ t . a . r                         i'm like pancho right now . my mind is like a breath of kerosene . now i'm growing old . i'm  living  on a  rope it seems . but that's the way of dreams . all  the purveyors  say  you can  only go so far before they lay you low . so the story  goes  on  about  how  i  fell . but  it's  not  true . so  the story  ends before it's told . they could have had me any day . but they  let  go  of  me out of kindness i suppose . living on the road without end . i began to cry and sank into my dreams . but that's the way it goes . c . e . j life is a tightrope walk they say . but they say a lot of things . don quixote had  his windmills . i have  my  way out . my wings . i travel  throughout their  towns  and cities . their  blood and mud  clings  to me in layers that dry to become  dust . none  of that is Important  on  the  endless  highway i  drank  myself  lucid  dreaming   of how  your  face  looked  in the moon tears  are  collecting  in my  bottle so it won't  run dry too soon . but that's the way it goes . thomas a robinson catherine e jarvis (c) october 12, 2014

I have a great respect for Thomas Robinson.  We were On another site together. He is an excellent poet as well As a great friend. It was a pleasure to work With him for the first time. I hope that this format Is easy to read. I had To really work to get it Justified on both Left and right. Waaaah!!! It didn't work! Interesting that the word Out is OUT. I'm leaving it.
