Overweight . . .

. . . baggage? I hope not.

https://mymodernmet.com/heavy-bicycle-loads-10-photos/

Six AM,

The buses aren't nearly as crowded

As the night before.

Someone said there was

Music and laughter

Behind all the shutters and doors.

What was all of it for?

Who needs friends?

There's barely a minute for breathing.

Everyone here works so hard.

There's no party.

When I reach my doorstep

I struggle to pull out my key.

Where's the meaning for me?

You see but you're unaware

There's life on the other side.

But there's no bridge to cross.

I'm looking through the fog

For some way out of here.

I've baggage here to toss.

Bless my soul!

I've read about you in the paper.

I've seen your picture somewhere.

When you speak it's in volumes and volumes.

I can't hear a word that you say.

Funny it happens that way.

I've been told

That envy's the thing I've been feeling

For your kind of work and your play.

But to tell you the truth

That it's only a wish

For a new kind of day,

When worry and fear melt away.

Could be

That a day will come

When you just might understand.

I’d like to go away.

And go there to stay.

But I can’t find the way.

So it goes,

But change never really comes easy.

Resistance is felt all around.

But inevitably something happens

That makes the old ship run aground.

We all stare in awe of what’s found.

Like me you appear to be

Looking for some meaning here.

The San Jose shooting suspect spoke angrily about co-workers, his ex-wife says. . .The shooter had two semi-automatic handguns and 11 magazines with ammunition, Smith told CNN. . ."They were handguns of the type that would be legal in California," Smith said, adding she didn't know how or when the gunman obtained the weapons. . . bomb-sniffing dogs alerted investigators to the gunman's locker at work. In the locker, investigators found "precursor things for explosives ... ingredients for a device," Smith said Thursday. . .
