thoughts

yeah i did
and so what

i also thought about a few other things
like hitting the concrete at ninety
the slowed down time delay before the hollow pumpkin exploding sound
of how stunning the wild roses looked
how long a white-capped wave was
how blue the mountains looked and what it once meant
whether id get there in time
about my little girl and how she would look in that hospital bed
about all those that cared and those that didnt
about hitting a logging truck on a blind curve
the way the dust rolls out behind the pick-up
the smell of freshly mowed lawn
and how green this jungle i live in is
how many islands i can see at one time when im in the mountains
and how i am truly one of the luckiest sob's alive to be able to think of this
and not another soul alive knows it
well maybe one, but that doesnt count
for obvious reasons
