No matter how old you get,
sometimes what you
--{really, really need}--
is to go back to the simple,
childlike wonder of things.
Like how raindrops
meet a puddle
with perfect little rings
-- so-called "adulthood"
is always this & that
& always such & such
in the end, it's running fast
but getting nowhere in particular--
--feeling far too little
& thinking far too much.

This piece is a fragment that's been sitting around for quite a while, and which I've not yet been able to use anywhere. It was originally scrawled on a torn piece of coarse, brown paper towel off of a roller (as that was the only thing I could find to write on at the time)
I had the odd idea that if someone had perhaps randomly found that torn piece of paper towel with its scrawled words, unaware of its origin, perhaps they might wonder what additional words might lie beyond that tear, even if the actual truth is far more mundane...

Thank you. I was more than a little iffy on this... Almost felt a bit too dadaist to post it in an incomplete form. But there was also a part of me that said: sometimes less really is more.
I'm glad you seem to agree. :)

Less is more and the fact that it's "incomplete" but still gets the point across means that it did it's job without over complexity~
