A tale of cliches

My brain has cliched, exclaimed the writer. For whatever I write sounds familiar. Every word I choose has been used before. Everything is cliched, even my eyes, my tongue, my skin, my body. I have seen it all, tasted it all, felt it all. The whole world is cliched.  That's new, exclaimed the critic.  A cliched world.  Wow, you are a genius chanted the crowd.        

Self

I am this, I am that. I was this, I was that. A time comes when all that will pass. Like water under the bridge to nowhere. Some times you are the nut. At times the wrench. Never a bolt that latched on to the truth. Deep down we are all something, something that no one realizes. A fast bike, a crazy song, rich man's perfumes and what not. They don't define you my friend. You are just another face in the crowd.

Thoughts

She could see into my soul with that instrument, he thought. No I can't, she replied. But, how did you know what I am thinking, he asked? Another nut case, she just smiled and shook her head.
