All the falling leaves
cannot be as heavy as
this pain in my heart.

"This pain in my heart -
it's indigestion" he said.
His famous last words.

His famous last words:
"Tell them I said something great..."
No one remembered.

@Seizan,
No one remembered
who was buried in Grant's Tomb.
Sad state of affairs.

Which one makes me thin?
Too much sugar, too much salt?
Neither one will do.

Old man walks out of the shop.
The truth is, he's broke...

@Seizan,
The truth is, he's broke...
a state many have lived through,
or not. Talk with him.

@ossobuco,
...or not -- talk with him.
He has the experience.
Maybe he won't say...

@Seizan,
When we become old
will we walk with gnarled hands on
knotted wooden sticks

@vonny,
Knotted wooden sticks.
Gnarled old hands grasping them with
loving dependence.

@edgarblythe,
Sadly one goes first
into the chamber of fear
and can't tell the next

@ossobuco,
"...and can't tell the next."
The secret has been well kept
since before we were.

@Seizan,
since before we were
here - we floated endlessly
Each breath a heartbeat

@vonny,
Each breath a heartbeat
Each heartbeat a whole lifetime
Each lifetime a blink
