The falling rise story.

Fall came with falling grace,
I thought about free falling,
Got a call, someone said,
Fall is here to be.

Rise with the fall, rise instead,
Rise with the rising costs,
For if you stay free falling,
You’ll only be seen as lost.

So with them, I discovered,
What rising was all about,
To rise with us, you must only
Fall in line, or fall out.

So I fell out, and I’m free
Free as free could be
Fall comes, brings with it
More offers to rise with thee

But free I was, free I am
Free is all I have.
Free to think, write, express,
And travel the world a tramp.

    Enigma of the free fall. An awesome assembly of words, I must say.

    "And travel the world a tramp" Reminds me of the Free Bird and Free Falling Song at the same time :)

    I'm ready to ride a stamp,
    I' ready to be as small as a flee,
    and travel the world a tramp.

    And I have no fears at all, at all,
    I have no fears at all."

Found & Lost.

Women claim men are too fast, too insensitive and too often too direct. They think we want to be ahead in the equation all the time, and would do anything to maintain control of the dynamics. In our defense, we are scared of uncertainties. Habitual to direct, open conversations ("Pass the beer, dude", "Stop bein' such a wussy!") when we find a friend in trouble, we just say, "Your car got stolen? Bummer. Lets go catch a drink." and spend the next two hours drinking and watching soccer. ("That kick is blanking brilliant!", "Did you see that crazy save?") So when a woman says phrases like "Lets see.", "Nothing.", "Suppose you try to guess.." and "I don't know/I can't say anything now.", it leaves us scratching our head and wondering what we are supposed to do next. Wait? Be on our best behavior till further notice? We know they are talking sense at their end, but it don't make no
