RE: everyone I don't answer to

Not picking up the phone tonight,
And not tomorrow either.
The ball, my dear, is in your court,
Be you tired, or be you eager.

Please don't put it all on me this time,
Don't be so unfair.
I fail often, that much we know,
At least I believe you care.

A charming little girl with blonde hair that was waiting for the pedestrian light to turn green.
A rough looking man with tattoos on his arms and sunnies on with two boys (sons) in the back.

Where I had escaped to: Melbourne (Art camp)
What have I been up to: Exploring the ugly, beautiful and interesting.
Conclusion: My time in Melbourne, though short lived, has transformed me. The people. The smells. The culture. The Arts. The raw opinions of others. The fashion. The stories I've heard from strangers. The strangers I now call friends.
To the point, I've been inspired by many individuals to become an explorer of the world. I may not be the next Marco Polo but I aim to 'look closer' and deeper in my travels. try it.

belated start.
