You know that feeling you get when you are tipping your chair back and you
almost go crashing back on the floor but you just catch yourself? I feel
like that all the time.
-- Stephen Wright
If you rap your knuckles against a window jamb or doo if you
brush your leg against a bed or desk, if you catch your foot in a curled-
up corner of a rug, or strike a toe against a desk or chair, go back and
repeat the sequence....
If I could read your mind, love,
What a tale your thoughts could tell
Just like a paperback novel,
The kind the drugstore sells,
When you reach the part where the heartaches come,
The hero would be me,
Heroes often fail,
You won't read that book again, because
the ending is just too hard to take....
