where I live :: prev :: next :: this is where I live here next to you and the warmth of your skin there's nothing like it on earth all my thoughts return here the dark room the blue-white glow an eternity passes all that I do when the sun lights the sky is autonomic and only a means to an end millions of novels and I've been reading the same sentence over and over like a dog chasing his tail the numbers increase the rich get richer the great machine churns on just outside our window and I'm there with you forever and always time stands still and is gone in a blink life is a lie we keep telling ourselves but deep inside we don't believe it now and again my thoughts take that journey and it causes me to convulse and give out a little scream these decades have gone by now and worn down the runner in me but I still want to run so fast, so far away but there is nowhere to run nowhere to be free from the perversion someone slipped in the tinted lense there's no corner of the globe that's not tainted having seen the other side knowing how it looks when all's set right it's very difficult to remain here swimming in the cesspool but remain I will if not to have one more day here with you where I live © 2008 (13 october) john r. chase
