    It is only when you go naked to the urinal that you realise the extent of splashback.

    When you have children, you realise you are a bit player in the musical of your life.

    When you leave the hospital, don't say goodbye, but au revoir.

    Yea, sure, I just need to find a long-enough minute Mind you, this quote gets one thinking. It's so meaningful for a poem around it

    There's something utterly profound in all these three

    "You see girls as energy drinks; exciting, addictive, and mass produced for your own pleasure."
    That's me in an arguement.
    For I have known them all already, known them all:
    Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
    I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
    I know the voices dying with a dying fall
    Beneath the music from a farther room.

    So how should I presume?
    Eliot

    That's a great point for an argument. What a sharp mind!

    It was funny. I said it and laughed. My friends like that one.
    Only thing is, girls and energy drinks are so different, that is why I so enjoyed saying it.

    Made my day. The person I said it to didn't like it, but that is their own problem. If I wasn't insulting them it would be hilarious. They should stop having so many energy drinks.

    As with the consumption of alcohol and the servings of chocolate, moderation is one of the keys to a pleasant happy life.

    That happen on the Soul
    And leave it with a Discontent

    Hehe. Hilarious.

    Only the chocolate, I can eat a lot. It is all or nothing.

    Ehh, all the inspiration I have at the moment. Horrible.

    The mouse scurries to its drawer,
    the hard drive hum recedes,
    and I withdraw to my bed.
    But the computer screen is still flashing and bright inside my head.

    Ahh, you're onto something here. Reminds me of the T.S. Eliot quote, which btw, probably has nothing to do with what you intended your quote to mean, but anyway:

    "The historical sense involves a perception, not only of the pastness of the past, but of its presence."

    Yeah, totally random, but I was just thinking about the essay from which that quote came from, and so your aphorism undoubtably made me think of it. Again, I think you meant it in different terms.
