The Things One Remembers

this is a true recollection but from a while back

                                                                            It was either New Orleans or in
                                                                                    old Monterey where a
                                                                            crawfish jumped out of the pot
                                                                                and made a clean getaway
                                                                          On reflection, it’s funny what one
                                                                                    might remember on a
                                                                          cold winter day, like today, when
                                                                              delirious with a Covid viral
                                                                      infection and nowt else much to say

Well you know ...I think its a beautiful thing to remember and I hope the poor thing went on to have a beautiful life. Commiserations, I too am unwell with covid, flu, life...whatever....your words gave me a shred of hope. I just turned the tv off in disgust with the news all over a sweet little calf with bad legs when the reality is billions of cows worldwide are treated disgustingly by us as a species with most sweet little calves ripped away from their mams so we can drink their milk. Oh...the hypocrisy of the human brain. Wow...did I just rant?? Not like me at all. Get well soon Nev X

I am with you entirely M .. indeed, I quite Iost count of the number of folk who witnessed the great escape and who were cheering for him, or her (not exactly sure, since they were running away from me at the time) to make it to the grille in the sidewalk and presumably back to safety ..
Funny how so many switch sides and what it takes for them to do that isn't it ..
For some reason, my own delight felt more like exhilaration ... and I am a guy who loves his seafood & considers himself but a prawn in this crazy game we are each required to play ..
