Delta

Delta means difference.  There is a difference between what I think, or thought, about my relationship with S, and the reality of it.  The symbol for Delta is a triangle.  Which, apparently I was part of, made so without my knowledge, by the thoughtless, care-less, selfish behavior of another.  But, when we know better we do better.  This is one of my favorite old songs, which was put in front of my face the other day.  I hope you enjoy it.

Waking stream of consciousness
On a sleeping street of dream
Thoughts like scattered leaves
Slowed in mid fall into the streams

Of fast running rivers of choice and chance
And time stops here on the delta
While they dance, while they dance

I love the child who steers this riverboat
But lately he’s crazy for the deep
And the river seems dreamlike in the daytime
And someone keeps thinking in my sleep

Of fast running rivers of choice and chance
And time stops here on the delta
While they dance, while they dance

While they dance, while they dance
While they dance, while they dance
While they dance, while they dance
