Valley Life


a cold front marches through the valley

as if it had been expected...  we dip our

crackers in the hot tomato soup like we

know exactly what we are doing...  but,

it is not the same as dunking cake

doughnuts into hot coffee...   still, we

prepare ourselves for the inevitable

just as we would for the humidity of

summer even though it came in the

spring...  we have never been much

for rules abiding, sharing similarities

with all the illegal immigrants in that

regard - we were born here - is that

our excuse?  Oftentimes, we dip our

toes down in a mess of problems that

later we wished we had not done - it is

too late by the time that foolishness passes;

we are just as abrupt as we are lazy and

most of us realize that flaw even when

we do not care to correct it...  it becomes

the torch that defines our last legacies.
