The Never Ending Story

Why are yesterday’s tomorrows? What is “have a nice day”? What is so long? Why can’t we just be here now? The answer is simple –    Because Stop and smell the coffee, or the flowers I just overheard in a coffee shop that    A man was celebrating his 42nd wedding anniversary    WOW! Explanation point after exclamation point So what is the point of this exercise Does there have to be one?   Reach out and grab it It’s right there for the taking Live fast, die young, and have a good-looking corpse* Parables, life’s lessons, does anyone really care? Are we going to hell in a hand basket? Stupid. Stupid, Stupid! Genghis Khan, Hitler, Bush, Saddam, Ho Chi Min, Palestinians, Israelis, Shin Fein, How many more? How many more? Need I go on? The list is endless. All self-serving men. Did they change the world?  Diabolically they did Stupid, stupid, STUPID. Let’s blow this place up and start all over again! CALLING ALL SAVIOURS! CALLING ALL MESSIAHS! C’mon. I dare you. I double dare you.

Additional Notes:
*from, "Knock On Any Door" by Willard Motley, 1947. I became really pissed off over the last round of suicide bombings in Israel.
