As I sit…
as I watch
I reminisce of the pot
looking  in and tasting hot
members move in transition
making him a part of the generation
worth elation

I sit,
step back
to see there is so much more
so much to look for
forward for
help me forget
what I see
is not what I get
this is dreaming…

alternate lifetimes, alternate lifespans
another reality
more for him than for me
we see the dance floor move
see the dresses twirl
see tears turn to smiles
we are here for a while

 dried up make-up
stained dresses of satin
so much detail to the little things
they could file for a patent
still…
what is it I am here for
traveled so far for…

I don’t feel right…

The thoughts for this one came together as I was sitting at a wedding reception watching all the happenings go on . Relating it to my own life with a short time travel and coming back to the sights of the evening. In the midst of all the “happiness” I feel off…

As Always…

Stay Positive!
