Walt, when you see the burnt toast you know it is over and all we can do is step out of the picture and give them their reins and hope your heart will heal. A good write!

Inquisitve nature demands I wonder just what the true signifigance is of the burnt toast...is it the final play in a lover's quarrel or somthing else all together different.

Hey Bro! Stan was choppin up dead chicken and then amid the dead flesh he stole a New Year's kiss, just too romantic! There is hope for everyone, for every pot there is a lip, and some pot is a lookin for you! LOVE YA! Sissy

And now it's time to toast a whole new year, to chill out, and perhaps, have a beer.

Oh brother! here we go again...kitchens in the morning are an awful place to be alone, next time invite someone wearing a very short morning gown so you will have a real reason to cry over a burned toast

Walt there are so many deep emotions in this it's hard to sort them out. A simple looking complex poem. You do this so well!
