And then it goes. That's all you know.

Open books shall always exist for those with an opened eye and pure heart; for Truth can only be seen by those with truth in them.

Nothing like poetry when you lie awake at night. It keeps the old brain limber. It washes away the mud and sand that keeps on blocking up the bends.Like waves to make the pebbles dance on my old floors. And turn them into rubies and jacinths; or at any rate, good imitations.
