avoiding the slip slide

this is the kind of mantra
old senile people make

[i guess i must qualify]

but, "november i'm going to pwn you 

like october never was".

soon there will be photos to match

[hello new camera]

and less deadlines

[who am i fooling?]

more time with friends.

bring on the new year

and the following christmas to slow

its heady pace

bucking cliché trends
i want a pony.
