In years past,
like fearless daredevils,
we rode in cars without
seatbelts.
When we crashed, everyone
bounced around inside
like bingo balls in a squirrel cage.
Carnage: an acceptable risk.

Writer, poet, musician, hungry diner at the table of life, enjoying every last crumb of this meal and cleaning my plate; happily perverse in my passions.
