2009

Weather respite Now just winds and minor flooding SLUSH! The human animal begins to believe There is a God after all Oil and dirt soaked snow outside doesn't look so bad After all a spell indoors has restored Pride in living Floors swept Everything meets the eye dusted Hot tub after Hot tub So? gained a few pounds over The holidays Hell! One feels like walking The mall Grocery store Yes! Restore depleted stock And more..... After sales And after after after After maneuvering the aisles After slushing through streets parking lots After the impersonal experience renews So? What's new - Same old adrenalin surge Same rejection after Same morbid insecurity 2009 Back in the hole again

Time to give it a go and get out of that hole. Your poetry touches on life for many. When I look back, it was much much worse years ago, but we were happier. Have a wonderful 2009. Vince
