Set the vivid fears aside in the sun & watch them fade
Kneel to...

Way't...
Slow to the music, fast to the times
I admit a few memories of stepping over a dollar to pick up the dimes
Money never a part, the places I saw worth while
I keep close to heart, fondly daunting with a smile
Luck more than...

Night thoughts - 5. - because why not
Ever relapsing into darkness
I sift blindly through my minds possible mess

Chosen out of opportunities never proposed

Deep-ending...
