crazystuff

The shop was old, its wares unsold,
The old man bent over the counter.
A fly buzzed in, and perched on a tin
Which would trap the milk-powder for-ever,
Till it was powder no more,
but lumps of time-hardened strangeness.

you pick out things to write on that would hardly appeal to people in general but you make them seem so true and strike a chord somewhere. you and your posts provoke thoughts.
