Something i wrote based on a dream i had.
I have to leave a token here at the toll gate. there is a man here with a strict demeanour who has made this silent demand. and it is this piece of writing that i leave him. the walk has taken it's toll on me, and now i have to pay the price.
It was all like a credit card. have fun now...but pay for it later. the game is called american express...it is a game of cards. you play a particular suit and if nobody else has it...you take back all that you have put down. payback time. it will get to you sometime. enjoy the ride...try for the aisle seat at the spinning wheel! the game is called express...american express...U.S express...now, the meaning has changed...express as in display...U.S display. now it is us display....we display. we express....what?
we express a lot, at express speed, play all your cards fast...one suit...put it down. and then if it doesn't suit the other, you take it all back. you can have all the fun you want, but you will have to pay while taking it back. the game is called american express...
it is now payback time for me. the toll is heavy; can never be satsified. but i still play cards, will always. the toll will keep increasing and i have many more tokens to leave.
What stayed with you?
A line that lingered, a feeling, a disagreement. Great comments are as valuable as the original piece.
