daze
So I've sat around.
what of it?
Complacency is what you make of it.
So you've been around?
that's nice.
I choose to stand still.
We are all creatures of our own device.
The break has brought me many great adventures
that I have overlooked.
They brought me hours of "boredom" that I wouldn't trade for the Eiffel tower.
They brought me a glimpse of freedom.
I have sought the great treasures of the world
and thought I failed,
but the failure only comes with not trying.
I have sought the world,
and I have taken away with me a part of it...
unique to any other piece
that fits in with my great plan.
7,000,000 more pieces to go
and I'll have the complete set

but who's counting?
I'd like to say not me.

Today I had fun for the first time in
a lifetime...
or at least what seems to be so.
And life is so bittersweet
when my ashtray is full
and I can go to sleep content
with things to do

even if they are just foolish dreams
and I am a foolish dreamer.


on a side note I would like to say
that I met a man i had not seen
he was not along the way, but I
stopped to say hello
and in return he stopped to acknowledge me
there is no greater thing
than the meeting of two minds
along a dismal and dreary road
where one may otherwise be too
busy to take notice.

well that was my day.
how was yours?
