Red face feelings for the whole OZ thing summed up.

Forgive me all i write this while half drunk after the death of my Grandpa and realising just how much this whole thing means to me & mine.


Our dreams rest on a faceless name
Sometimes i think a hunters game

your life you feel it every day
your trade, your meds they could make it sway

life in limbo, sell a house
right decision for me & spouse?

your kids they wait, they know no better,
they crave your love, your food & shelter.

i am a decent guy, some say a bloke.
please god let us see OZ before i croak.


Madsad.

Madsad, sorry to hear about grandpa. I'm sure you have good memories and always will.
You never forget your loved ones, no matter where you are or what you're doing. I was thinking about my grandad yesterday, he's been gone 20 years next month but always in my thoughts.

Neither do I! But if it makes you feel better, it must be good, I think!
