 “The whole problem

 with the world
is that fools

 and fanatics
are always
so certain  

of themselves,
 but wiser people
so full of doubts.”

" To love

 another person

 is to see the face

 the conduct of mankind

is surprising. "

to be silent

just as one

must learn how

to talk. "

truly useful,

 you tend to vent 

the pent up energy 

in something useless
 but available,

 like snappy dressing.  "

next year.  "

 anywhere. "

We grow up in a world

and learn about it-

It is OUR world

and there are things

that EVERYBODY knows.

It knocks each of us

for a life loop

when this big solid world

begins to shift

and change

with US in it!

New people come along

who never knew

the "facts" we learned.

They do not know

the pillars

that held up 

OUR sky!

Or know them only

as curiosities,

irrelevant

like us.

Jenny Lind,

Rudy Vallee, 

John Lennon,

Caruso.

Justin Bieber.

All the immortals

at last

grow quaint.

We cannot warn

the young;

some things must just

be lived

and lost.

What a ride?!

YOU

decide.

" It's hard for me to get used to these changing times.
 I can remember when the air was clean 
and sex was dirty.  "

George Burns
