Scattered.......God Knows where.

Time is a vacuum it sucks
in only one direction......Gone!
All of those we once knew
without warning disappear
from our lives, as the years
are whisked away.

Kids I grew up with, never
saw them again sure
Vietnam got a few, others
just moved away like me.
But I grew up in the projects,
there were thirty-five kids
per block times 50 blocks
of Veterans Housing projects.
A gift to our soldier daddies
they were rather ratty by the time
my dad got his piece of the cheap
but the kids.... where did they go??

Oh, I know Sharon died
of a drug overdose, and Dani's
been married twice and divorced
but the bulk of the gang I hung with
has been severed and swallowed by time.

Then there are the old girlfriends
I feel like some Bermuda triangle
sucked all of my past lovers into oblivion.
I have wandered many vast places
and never ever run into an old girlfriend,
what a joy it would be to do so,
I am a romantic, they all still mean
so much to me, they helped guide me
to what I am today but all I have is
some old Polaroids and a handful
of memories and letters from each one.
All tucked away lest they too get
sucked away like the girls that they portray.

I have whole lists of people who
disappeared forever, Guys I knew
in the corps, Guys I played in bands with,
people I worked and sweated with,
even the kids I taught, all vanished
from the face of the earth. Is there
a concentration camp somewhere
that holds them all where they
concentrate on everything but
ever bumping into me again.

They said you can't ever go back,
but they don't tell you that so many
of the folks in your past that matter
won't be sharing in your future at

You don't fit the commercial language in lyrics
But that's ok . AI is good platform for guys like you

We won't go there on streaming services , I'm not sure how you promote a AI song , I'm sure they're doing it , it's all $$$$$. its only old people bitching about AI songs , its the kids new fade . Beatle's Who ? Well even a 22-year old has heard of the Beatles . The name is blasted everywhere $$$$$$$$$$. The kids fad in 1964. I know I was there at 11 years old
