Gold Ballet Shoes and a Deciduous Tree

WTF is this about. Gold ballet shoes and a deciduous tree. A tree that loses it's leaves in the Fall. As in the fall of man or leaves. Maybe thats what happened to me. Like narcissus I thought I could cheat death, do what I damn well pleased, bought some gold ballet shoes being that gold sneakers are all the rage now and dance my way through life.

Wouldn't it be nice to have them shoes. Almost a fairy tale too. What would the the lesson be about. Don't get too hung up in shit, life's a dance? Go as fast as can? Nasty shit could happen. Probably. So go with the flow. Bring it on and various other Zen stuff cause shit definitely happens. You could be looking at TV turn to get something and throw your back out. Walk down the street and bam some young punk sucker punches you in the head.

So life is random. If you get curious, want to have some fun well put on your gold ballet shoes take a walk and watch the leaves drop from a deciduous tree. Unless of course instead of the leaves it's the tree that falls on you. Then you will have to hang up those gold ballet shoes for a long time. How many seasons do you have to wait? Time will pass and the leaves will drop, the snow will fall and spring will come. The deciduous trees will bud and grow and in the Fall will drop again. By then maybe you can put on your gold ballet shoes and really do a dance. Be happy your alive and didn't get crushed by that damn tree.

So you have to wonder if I had just paused for a moment on my walk for any thing that day, the damn tree might have missed me. But truthfully, that fucking tree was falling anyhow, When I went for a walk there was nothing I could do about it. Bam!
