Slipping in the same old dodo, hauled by the famed old choo choo. Traveling the lame old track, instead of going forward, rolling back. The choo choo nears the horizon, nothing going on surprising. Hopefully there's a defeat, a change in the meat. Maybe a new day to eat, enjoy not messing up, maybe do some dressing up, to keep from stressing corrupt. Days come and days go, at times we don't know, at times we do, thinking wisely, our way through, trying hard not to, step in the same old dodo. G

Your lament contains great advice...we have to take one day at a time and sometimes just getting up and dressing helps to defeat the dreariness.

Hugs to you!

Social sure knows how to hurl it politically, romantically, socially and financially. We certainly need to keep the hip boots and elbow gloves handy, take a deep breath, hold it 'til we wade thru, in order to get past that same ol' dodo.

Thanks for slingin' these truths, Brotha Poet.
blessin's, and happy springtime Grady,

A good write, G. Makes me think of the proverb "As a dog returns to his vomit, so a fool returns to his folly." We can all use more wisdom in this area. ~~Nordette

If people would pick up their dodo then others wouldn't step in it, or we would have to create it for ourselves...there IS a message here...Ed

yeah grady...i'm on the lookout for new mistakes to make but to be sadly honest, all i've found are old worn out ones so far

Running around nowhere,

I think that's sadly probably what most of us do - most of the time.
And thanks for the kind words on my little surgery, Grady.
