When I open

My mouth, Is it

Digital tongue

Of long ago

Apollo?

Soon the neurons

Will be equaled

In virtual

Slaves. Will they be

Enthralled by my

Flesh music

Or become Maenads?

I am torn...


Today I promised to help my wife with the laundry.

I even went to the laundry mat and carried the load there.

However, I got hungry and went to the Blue Diner for pancakes.

When I got back, she had the laundry done.

Serious, questioning, then funny...a good read.

The last time I took my husband to a laundromat he went next door and bought a boat. Luckily for him, there was a bank next door to the boat place.

goodness, did you make him sleep in the boat? :)
