And What shall I Write

And when the Shadows fall
upon the empty page
and when the wrinkles
write the long days
I will not fret

and I will write nothing
and watch the shadows
spiral
and watch the shadows
Fall..

I suggest you write the word "YES" in big block letters. But that's just me.

Also, you've acquired a new fan of the pictures you take.

I LOVE it! The shadows tell the tale and you should write the great American novel of course! We are due for it.

If I were a younger man, I would write a history of human stupidity... and I would climb to the top of Mt. McCabe... and I would take from the ground a piece of the blue poison that turns men into statues... and using my tablet as a pillow, I would make a statue of myself glaring up at the infinte One and grinning horribly.
