i think too much

I think I made it all up; like when i was a child and drew maps to Joe Lightning’s house-

I think I wanted to believe it soo bad- it isn’t real, believing is innocense-

I think I imagined it, a hallucination, non existent reality-

I think I created it; Masterpiece art-working-too-hard-

I think I was fooled, like a child throwing pennies in a well, honest, just misguided-

I think I hang on too tight, gripping while slippping from the edge-

I think I tasted it. Perfection-

I think I overcame it; what doesn’t kill you…-

I think I’m really 62, I just forgot the past 40 years-

I think life is a battle, it’s too bad i’m a pacifist-

I think i’m better off; life’s too short for pain-  

I think i’m living my autobiography, and this is just a chapter-

I think ”this too shall pass“; pass out, become pas(t)(é), or pass you by-

I think beauty always wins, and the simple things are most beautiful-

I think you get the benefit of the doubt, until you lose trust-

I think jazz is life; random, flowing, and melodic-

I think your own heart can decieve you; balance wins-

I think i think too much-

  1. It’s been interesting to read the progression of your thoughts and experiences in these blogs. I think this one is my favorite so far, I have fond memories of Chadow and Joe Lightning

  2. do you remember the map on the front of the garage door?Or the lite-brite maps? I swear i thought i was going to live in the clouds…

  3. I do remember the map on the garage door and the Lite-Brite maps. Maybe you do live in the clouds, at least metaphorically speaking

  4. I loved that map on the garage door – very inventive for a four year old. And, at least metaphorically speaking, maybe you do live in the clouds :)

  5. I also love reading your blog & poetry. AND, I remember Chadow & Joe Lightening, the Lightbright maps, crayon maps, and how excited you were about all the adventures you three (?) went on. I also remember the adventures you and Mitch would go on in the cul-de-sac and your corresponding maps.
