The Thought Process

Listen to poem:
The Thought Process David J Walker I never thought it would be like this I never thought it would be I never thought Much About much at all I never thought Life would ever stop I never thought about it Coming to an end And getting off This uncomfortable passenger bus That brought us And dropped us off At a greasy spoon diner that double As a post office with no boxes And a one-street town with One eternal yellow traffic light perpetually blinking caution caution caution When we were looking for Passion passion passion In Efficacious Fashion That sublimates the scenery As it passes From town to dissolute town I never thought it would be like this I never thought it would be I never thought about us Coming and going One by one As the day is done for Another son of the 20th century Who ran the gauntlet beside us
