Nothing moves the auction along...

Like some 8th grade eye candy.

Sometimes, just like this.

We had said good bye
and exchanged hugs.
I was stopped at the door with
a question
and then he said
"Wait a sec, give me
another hug".

Golden silence

Stretched between us,
holding us gently in the arms
of quiet harmony
only to be broken at
the very end
with the remonstration
"Its been nice talking to you"

On NPR Morning Edition

Pigs are a member of the
order Artiodactyla
(....pause....)
Even-toed ungulate
(...pause...)
Go look it up.

It was a joke...

If protested from my lips
means its already
to late and I am
screwed.
