Ever so often, I will come across a poem in my old journals that I giggle at and because it is so far removed in years, I wonder – What in THE hell was my train of thought on this one…
The Constant Lover
Out upon it! I have loved three whole days together:
And am like to love three more if it prove fair weather.
~Sir John Suckling
“I burn for you.” ~ Sting, Brimstone & Treacle
“…and I think to myself, what a wonderful world.” ~Louis Armstrong
“My Shangri la, I can’t forget why you were mine. I need you now.” ~Gerrard McMann
I must have been pining for someone and my feelings were hurt because of it.
Then there was a personal journal entry:
1989-05-13
Mass hysteria, confusion, mania. The world is a hopeless place, dog-eat-dog, delusions of grandeur, crazed drowning people reaching furiously to grab hold, only taking more people down…
Yes, I read the news.
Glad to see some things never change.
