Larry the bird, mysteriously flew into my yard and made himself at home. He doesn't say much but this bird's got a lot of personality, so I let him stay awhile.

A night of winning yet breaking even. But breaking even is still winning. And I drank and I laughed and I played. Then I made my way home to my lonely bed. And I laid there thinking of winning with you, with only my losses to keep me warm.

Imbalance in your life carries imbalance to the soul.

There is nothing I wouldn't do, just to be here now with you. Because there's something I need to do, with you. Since last time seems so far away, I've been aching more each day. But it's funny how I never felt this way, until the day that you led me up to your room and you showed me. She said, "This is how I want it to be between you and me." Now there's nowhere else I'd rather be. It's the memory of you, it still tastes so sweet. And the voodoo you do means you feel it to, so just call my name.

She asked if I was alive.  I told her that is a matter of opinion

I am who I am, who else could I be?

New Year’s Eve, I remember it well, not very clearly, but enough for me to tell.  There were drinks and drinks and then more drinks.  While the girls on stage danced for money.

I stayed away from the stage and poles, yet my mind was on some honey.  Sweet and sticky like my days and nights, but cutting through this sea of delights.  My mind raced and wandered, so I followed.

I reached the roof for a picture of the Strip before midnight, just before the fireworks.  When the rest of the group caught up with me, I discovered my date had become two; such are things on New Year’s Eve. The clock reached midnight and the party hit new heights.

The celebration continued on, literally until the break of dawn; which is when I passed out.  I know I don’t remember it all, but waking up I had a pretty good idea.  Happy New Year!

We are always carefully navigating the struggle between what is seen and what we want to be seen.

Oh so many nights spent here with you, over glasses of wine in our pas de deux.

The more you ignore me the closer I get, you're wasting your time.

Una pierna delgada es algo hermoso,

Pero no soy enemigo de los tobillos gruesos.

Por incluso puedo decir que me atraen.

Tienen la promesa de una gran armonía en la parte superior de la pierna.

[thedapergent]

Las piernas de las mujeres son compases,

Que recorren el planeta en todo sentido,

Dándole equilibrio y armonía.

I stumbled across this picture and it filled me with old memories.  It reminds me that it doesn't matter where you came from, only where you're heading.
