Goodwill, Haynes Underwear for 35 Cents

Since I buy my underwear from the Goodwill, Haynes seconds for 35 cents each, I find they develop interesting holes and variations after a time. And I have to remember what everyone's mother is supposed to have said about making sure your underwear is intact in case you are in a wreck of somekind.

Untitled Poem by RAL

There is something about the “light” in fall…
only the best and brightest stand out…
I still have hope
and despite everything that comes my way to the contrary,
I will at least have that…

Just when I wanted to give up…
There’s Springsteen's “Magic”.
Then a new Radiohead….
And then, the very best thing,
Neil Young…. Does his thing with “Chrome II….

Just stop…………….. and, ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-um listen...
And then just “look?”
(I am still a fan of the “visual”, and there are good things happening there too….)

Thank God for music…
I just can’t ever give up because they don’t let up…
offering something for/to my dreams...
