untitled

for a change,

nothing to say;

just a photograph,

that stands on its own

stairway to heaven

"And a new day will dawn
For those who stand long
...
But in the long run
There's still time to
change the road
you're on"
--Led Zepplin

life is...

puddles of light in the dark

puddles of dark in the light

the gambler

playing with fire.

nonzero risk of getting burned.

but the payoffs, oh the payoffs.

worth it? the house always wins.

never stopped anyone from trying.

smouldered

outside, no fiery finish, crescendo, catharsis;

from afar still substantial and whole;

inside, deep, feverish, unrelenting, suffocating;

up close, scarred, consumed, crumbled, from the core

虎穴に入らずんば虎子を得ず

nothing ventured, nothing gained


nothing lost and nothing changed

looking behind, looking ahead

where am i going?
where have i been?
in need of direction
some would have say
not all who wander are lost
the journey IS the adventure

Lead

in?
on?
out?
thru?

What turns you on?
