Back in Full Swing

It's been a long time since I last posted here. That's the beauty of a blog. I miss this space.

Different

I wish there was something
different
than
sneakers flung
over power lines,
"Derek loves Gina"
sprayed in red paint
on turnpike overpasses,
everyone's kid an
honor roll student
at some elementary school.

I wish there was some
thing
different
no...not ordinary
not the same-as...
like, but not
like
anything I've
tasted, stared at,
kissed, kicked
punched,
cussed out,
written
lately.
