I was born in Brooklyn, and the photograph looked like it could have been taken at Coney Island. The video seemed to focus on the darker side of the experience, but I chose to identify with the repeating first stanza! Cheers- Joan

Such a strong depiction...even on life itself The innocence speaks boundaries and those boudaries are limitless, unless we choose to cramp them.
You have a style, and within there is a sincere and good person. It reflects in all you write.
You have a good day, my good friend.

When I was a lil' kid I was afraid of the dark. Still dont really like it, though I dont cry anymore...-smile-...at least when people are looking...haha. Anyway, I slept upstairs alone in ah big loft I guess....I was ah reading, with a lamp on the table next to the bed...and there was a monster who lived in the closet across the way. closet door was open a crack...and my peripheral vision constantly measured its every dimension in size. It was the light that kept that monster from me...and of course the light suddenly went out. In the pitch of the dark...I ah had a fit. heart racing frightened one at that....and I frantically sought its immediate remedy...tried everything fast...but it was the cord...I had to climb over the dresser to barely reach the wall socket...and ew man, I almost had it but...just wasn't a tall, long , big enough....dam was it frustrating...because I also have ah sense...not sure what number, but my left ear twitches like Mel Tillus stutters whenever someone or thing is sneaking up on me....so here we are me , the monster who is now out of the closet and breathing down my back, ass end exposed, desperately trying to save my life by the light that wards off all evil...and just cant reach it...almost ..God almost. I was ....a gonner...so prayed for real for the first time in my life...I prayed.."IF this light does not go on this time...there is no God"....and poof.....the room was a glow of bright white. The closet doors crack hadn't moved one cenimeter...and he was still inside. Ever since that night....I've always known He's watching me...-smile-...so it matters what I do and dont. Hope you're well Bro. .love michael

Yes, the ferris wheel goes round, but sometimes it seems it gets stuck. At first I did stuck on a line: "never close open soon" because I read it as one and it didn't make sense then I realized there should be a commabetween, "close, open" Since you didn't use any punctuation, maybe dividing the line might be better. Of course, I know now how it reads now. Love the up & down atmosphere you've presented. Great job! Les

As a former gambler, I can tell tell nothing is for certain even though people will tell you they can predict things for certain! Truth of the matter is, one can't eat gold or silver, and one can only do the best we can. Well done, some beautifully modulated metaphors Michael, this is a remarkable clear narrative, you've written, I enjoyed this very much, well done, blessings, Roy.

Forrest Gump.....love that "made up man". everything about that book...movie...leads to true love's simple trust. some say "simple mind"...and what the pick-up truck is wrong with that. I had a friend once..when I was real young grade school still, Danny...big, beast of a boy/man...we played football together and went to school the same way. He would do anything for me...Anyway, if there were more Gumps in every life there would be much more awareness of just what were missing. I pray your Mom and sister are doing better. love you michael

love you too baby...I love the person he played...innocent to hate...true to his love...and thank you for your prayers...talk later...Linda xxoo

You have some awesome combinations here. When strung together; verse, music and video it makes for an impressive presentation. the repetition of the first and last stanza with that small reverse n the last line is effective. Nice job, Michael.
