Friday swings around quickly. Layton is waiting at the entrance gates like heaven can wait . Sharon is twisted in a time warp and Bush is swinging a raquette. My camera captures all the faces that missed the big ball dance. The ticket booth is vacant and the clerks are home at last drinking green tea reading cereal labels while the TV blares the same old noises and commercials tell no lies.

Friday night rolls around like warm bread out of the oven. Bagels boast empty smiles.
Drink to life drink to life for there's only life to drink.

Have a great Shabbos!!!!
