Hump Day Chatter

Chevron Gas Prices o' the Day (19th Avenue)
$4.55
$4.67
$4.79

I am here and you are there with time surrounding us everywhere. The fog covers this old town as if blanketed in cobwebs. Everyone is on holiday to celebrate their independence although gas prices have gone up. And I am one of them. I am intrigued as I discover a treasure trove of 16th century music written by a man named John Dowland. There are still legends among us--diamonds in the ancient dust of time. Must respect our elders. I stumble upon the rough terrain of life--barefoot and tattered--my daily existence is that of a hunter and gatherer in search of peace in a world so full of conflict.
