Entering the Millennium

*********************

And I am sitting here

With the southern Californian Chardonnay

Dancing in the half-full glass

On the table in front of me

With the passionate waves

Of romance and politics

Storming my brain

And I am armed with

A broken pen

But the gun standing by the wall

Is loaded

We are all sitting in the same café

On chairs too far away

No motivation to stay

Not able to leave

Staring at the dance

Waiting for the first ray of sunshine

Guiding us where and how

To head from here

But the curtains

Are too thick

With no windows behind

On the Dark Age walls
