Array ( [sid] => 180431 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => A letter to my future self [time] => 2015-01-31 15:29:34 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Did it work?

You would think from our last last letter that I would of learnt,
but the lines one the page still feels like prison bars cutting us off from the sky.
The sun shinning on our moments of propearity, but as the next line comes
so does the emptyness that often takes cafe planning to fill.

So I ask you, did it work?

Did this endless page of the mundane scribblings of a person
desprate enough to have some light at the end of the tunnel
to wright all the thoughts of himself down to stop the flow
of ink become a river of blood from a severed artiery.

Remember not everything is compared to the amout of
lost blood.

Yours truely

It worked. It doesn't matter what colour the stream is...what matters is that there is a steam.
