Echoes Seldom Lie These Days

Echoes Seldom Lie These Days

 

Hey, whoever would have

guessed ..

When I first slipped off

your dress ..

That we would still be

here together,

even after all these years ..

 

And whoever might have

thought

we would have, as much as

we have left

to play with, at the sharp end

of a very long day ..

 

They all told us not to bother

and to mostly

disbelieve each other, since

quite simply there

could not be a middle way ..

 

So the moral of this story is,

don’t believe

in anything at all, since there

are so few,

universal truths, these days ..

 

Although, there may be one

or two exceptions

for example, echoes seldom lie

and robins eggs are

almost always, some shade of blue ..
