I lost my temper with a friend

Marked him and treated him with rudeness

And though i tried to make amends

Feel i miss him and walk a dark corridor



Woke up one morning

Doctor buck's letter

Of my own making, i walk a dark corridor of my heart

Hoping one day a door will be ajar

At least so we can recompense

Our betrayal of our hard worn/won(?) friendship

In vulgar and arrogant abeyance

To what was untrue underneath our parlance



I open the envelope, doctor buck's letter

Re: welfare benefits reports



J. mccarthy, approximately 10-15 days

I got down, i was depressed.

It was doctor buck's letter.



Turn the radio on



Doctor buck's letter

Cheer myself up

Put the radio on, get the magazine out

And read about the ¡®essence of tong'



Checklist:

I never leave home without:

1 sunglasses: i wear them all year around, and seem to need them more often, it's a habit

2 music: cassettes cds

3 palm pilot: it's my lifeline i think it's my p.a.'s computer, she rules my diary and i download it

4 mobile phone

5 amex card; they made such a fuss about giving it to me but i spent more time getting it turned down.



I was in the realm of the essence of tong.
