Rust never sleeps, but it does nap from time to time.
Rumoured to be laced with agent orange, but the dude didn't have any WD-40 to loosen up the pin mechnaism.

What's the old saying ? Close only counts in horse-shoes and handgrenades. .
perhaps training should be involved?
be in the moment ~ neither future nor past are the domain of the living
swallow a live frog in the morning and no thing worse will happen to you all day!

She taught Keith her sinister glare, taught Mick her wiggle, taught Brian how to wear floppy hats.

Motorcycles have left an indelible mark on my body. Or I should say my altercations with them.
On another subject...
Communications from the Animal World
IV
It wasn't the first time it happened
A subliminal memory did resound
As something came across the horizon
Arriving pre-dawn with a rusty brown
As a palpable presence gripped me
Like the mournful cry of a lonely hound
Something outside my window
Rustled and scrambled across the ground
The night shook with a rattling noise
Again it was going off and on
A whistling insect animal bird cry
Said something must be going wrong
I woke to multiple ring tones
And finally found my phone
Buried under the blankets
Then I answered with a raspy groan
And something rustled in my ear
In an echo chamber far away
Mewling sounds that beckoned
Like the dawn calling the night to day
Louder now I understood
This feline matriarchal bray
In a garbled plaintive mocking song
Frustrated I sighed in a resolute way
"What the hell?" I asked it
Silence answered for a spell
Then softy something breathed and sighed
As I thought just as well
And hit the end call button
Noting a pungent blossoming smell
Wafting through my window then
The jasmine promised not to tell
As multicolored gyroscopic
Checkered tornadoes centered high
And bore down painfully upon me
Piercing painfully my third eye
I woke up with a headache
The phone buzzed once or twice
And I shuffled off to the freezer
To find some frozen peas or ice

NOT Everybody's a Dreamer
While wandering in wonder along the Supertopo walk
I found a sling from which was slung a nylon bag of chalk.
And from the span of a cool old bridge I spied the peak Latok.
I thought I'd better go for it and give my friends a shock.
One can't ignore signs like this that tell us where to go
And what to do once we get there among the ice and snow.
But this was not one of those times and I nearly froze
Before I got back down to the path,
Tossed the sling and bag off the cool old bridge,
And quietly left the way I had come.
