A wooden ladder against a wall

Twelve feet in the air

Painted with drippings

 

Walking under it doesn’t change luck

Climbing it takes you nowhere

Asphalt to concrete

 

Nobody is working

Nobody is around

Nobody is climbing

 

The drip painted ladder

That leans against nothing

Nowhere to fall

 

Nonentity, no gravity

Like light on a sun dial

Sun shines down the alley

 

Looking west is blinding

Looking east burns your back

Cracked black asphalt under your feet

 

The mysteries of life will never be clear

Blinded on one side

Burned on the back

 

Remember to forget

Forgotten memories

 

How did I get here?

Did I put that ladder there?

Was I supposed to be working?

 

Nothing to paint

Nothing to fix

No reason for this ladder

 

What was I thinking?

Re: Ladder to nothing
how you doin??? ---> said like Joey from Friends!!! you have my email and I think about you all the time but I don't want to start sending you mushy or unsolicited bable... send me a line sometime.  I have pet squirrels that come to my window everyday, just two but everytime they come I think of you.

 

They really like the tortilla chips with lime...

How cool! He's sooo cute, your little friend. Have you named him? If not I think this one looks like a "George".
