Unpredictable Velocity Expect a rough ride & plan on landing hard: or it might be cross-eyed stairs you can't climb or an amp that goes up to fifteen. You may have to muscle pass aimless grease or sneak-in the snaking line round the block. Then, perhaps it'll appear as a fingernail clipping of some spinster or a fine feather floating in chicken broth. In its shaky claim to the future it might put on a bathrobe with saggy sleeves or a nurse's uniform with scuffed white shoes. In any case, the story line's the same. The restraining order is still issued to the stockbroker while he dines at a buffet. The glint you see is still a mirror or a glass eye. And the figurative line in the sand's just a coil of razor wire. So don't count on a cozy retirement-plan. Just try to enjoy your bit-part while your helmet still rattles & fogs away in a craggy mischance. |
