with creamy Alfredo and...

there were four of us sitting there
around the bonfire
when the night began
thunder from a storm that doesn't come

Could ever change anything

Turn life into a repentance for living
The demoralization of heavens acceptance
Gives anyone...

Passed innumerable hours never bored always enthralled

Abraded by wear of near instant replay nostalgia...
