read many books about life
ambulance drivers stretcher bearers during the wars
ordinary people who lived the world
still to this day

fragments of their stories
like flipping through a radio
or channel surfing
land in the middle of something

lifes like this
so true and sometimes
the facts are indeed
more stranger then fiction

But this is fiction

I do remember though when the surgeon
was taking out the screw on my left
A/C joint with the screwdriver
"Look away please"
and I could hear it twisting out of the
bone..They froze it of course
and I wish I had of looked after all
these years...I kept that screw like I still
have the one missing upper front tooth
from my head. There really is a Krissy
but I dont think she would sew someone up
But then I dont know.....she is pretty
hardcore

you havent dragged your brother up a hill with a busted
leg from tobagganing AFTER you threw your tobagan
in front of him

they could have taken a turn but they didnt and hit
a tree
so....was it the two on board of me

im just haunted anyway

now his foot is one inch shorter

and he loves me
all the old photos
etc

ha ha ha

there are so many monkeys on my back
grrrr

its a curved needle from leatherwork
there is a specific kind of stitch to
use also

basic hand sanitizer with alcohol is enough
the muliplication of bacteria in a nice
juicy land of oppurtunity is what one wants
to eliminate

Ive had gangrene in a leg wound from frostbite
was hospitalized for that
and then pnuemonia so bad I was laid out
flat transported and was pissing blood
massive migraine and throwing up
any place else left a few days more
and I would be dead

car crash that tore my shoulder
the door of the car was bent out
and huge from my body being thrown
about in the roll over at high speed
had I been ejected I would have been
dead

all part of the wonky realm
survival is not just of the fittest
but of those too odd circumstances
where there is indeed a higher order
watching over

in the meantime
Im still here
still writing dear reader
my exotic tales
of the extra
and ordinary

nothing like life to give you character
nothing like character to give you life!!

we have survived my freind
to write yet another day,
(in the ordinary and harrowing
existance that has been bestowed
upon us as a gift for our chosing!)

and should we survive the gauntlet of life
and find our winter of our season
upon our good countenance in the looking
glass,then we have indeed surpassed a
grievous elimination of chance and fate
that has culled the herd of man and beast.

just thought about it and yes she wouldnt be squeamish
she plays bagpipes and loves the dubstep dancing
exotic eyes!!

something about a flaming wheel
spinning over her head

lifes heartbreaker moments
we take the good the shady
and the everything else!!!

I always met travellers when I
travelled
and talked to tourist residents

my life is always interesting
too Ann
