I like personifying abstract notions, because then I can twist them around my little fingers, and make those notions speak exactly what I want them to speak, not necessarily what they would otherwise symbolise.

Thoughts
Like children, after the school bells ring at the end of the day,
Racing with each other, jostling, almost scrambling over each other to get out first,

Once outside
Some line up, holding the other by the hand, forming a pattern inherently beautiful
A smile
An expression of memories joyous

And the others?
Oh, they run helter skelter, whilst you threaten punishment, whilst you try and shove them in a line
Escape from your clutches they will, those fidgety devils, for too long have you held them back
Tears
Tracing a ragged course down the cheeks


Current Music : November Rain - Guns 'n' Roses (IMHO, one of the best-named bands around)
