Again and Again

I wonder how old is that beautiful girl staring back at me as I wait in the parking lot. She’s on the me salvé! propaganda wearing a grey t-shirt and ripped jeans. Her smile is lovely.

Nothing New Under the Sun

I’m walking again, same old road, Realizing my life ain’t unique or special Nor my experiences.

50 said Many men wish Death upon him And now I’ve lost count of the times I’ve wished death upon Myself. As I enter and close the Door, the flickering lights hurt my eyes, make me feel I entered a horror movie. But I am in a horror movie. I exit and there’s an old… Continue reading That’s Life
