"give"

i seem to recall that was the word
although i never played team games
then either
_______________________

well, it's i give up
but of course
i never even questioned it as a kid
just wondered why the hell
people just kept yelling
"give"

---------------------------------

didn't go to my staff x-mas party
got dressed ( a few times, the first
clue of unease ) put on the horrid
gifts they gave me, feeling sheep
like. knew i was expected. i had
been called earlier in the day.
twice. i even confirmed. picked
" the salmon". i like salmon. then
i didn't go. went to bed in my coat
and boots, like i was waiting for
the fire to start...

laundromats are fascinating places...i wanna open one up, one day.
water comes in and magic things happen, how cool is that?

hey don't worry about it. i NEVER pitch up at these things despite always accepting. i used to feel bad about, but know i figure it's my right not to go if i don't want to.

My photo
if a photo, image or dress isn't mine i'll identify who's it is, or at least from whence it came.
