Touched By A Hot Reminding
Breeze (A Short Contemplation on Eternity) by WEGoss2
Touched by a hot reminding
breeze, two men, friends forever, are meeting on a dusty road. Dark witnesses stand
hidden by shadows.
Back to back, they shared
memories.
“Hello, friend, we still
have unfinished business.”
“It is how things have to
be, the reason we are.”
“When you live as we have lived,
this is the result.”
“Ten paces gentlemen, I
will count”
“One.”
“Remember when we first met.”
“Two.”
“I remember, boys at the market.”
“Three.”
“Yes, your father gave me a candy.”
“Four.”
“I remember Roxanne.”
“Five.”
“She liked me, you know.”
“Six.”
“But, I gave her a first
kiss.”
“Seven.”
“She said you didn’t know
how.”
“Eight.”
“You destroyed dreams!”
“Nine.”
“It was for the good of all.”
“Ten.”
“I am truly sorry.”
“Fire!”
Touched by a hot reminding
breeze, two men, friends forever, time after time are meeting on a dusty road.
Back to back, they shared
memories.
“Ten paces gentleman.”
