One of Those Moments When All the Lights Are Out
a mile in my shoes
is a mile in everybody else's
only a different version
i have a massive bookmark collection
some smell like cigarettes
some smell like mixture of many different scents
whatever chapter i stop on at bedtime,
is the chapter i begin on to advance on to another
the merging with others is the inspiration for the fusion of my vocabulary of words
a journey amongst my footprints
is a journey in the travails of many others
only different stories
time is like the alphabet in an unbalanced jigsaw puzzle....such as life....
