I wrote this while trying to keep a production budget from spinning out of control..but there may be broader meanings...or no meaning at all..

Don't look down
It's such a long long way to fall
No turning back
you want it all

Don't be afraid
There's nothing you and I can't conquer
Just believe it
and it's yours

Now the light is crashing
through the window
From this room
I see the crowd grow
Bathed in neon, washed within
We're just prisoners
of this crazy world
There comes a time
we have to go
Where the grass is greener still

So don't look down
You haven't fallen far behind
You're moving faster
gaining time

Great wisdom. I hope you were able to corral the budget.

“You're moving faster
gaining time…”

Sometimes, that’s all we can ask for.

If the grass is greener anywhere, I have yet to find a place that it is, except the place we are in at the moment, life belongs to us, it is up to us to make it better...interesting post Ed...
Peace thru the Write, Ed & rufuz

Omega Factor by John Henning

Take some time to walk outside of your own mind and into another, walk slowly and carefully; the mind that you step on might be your own.
