It’s like living in a film
Where someone else has pressed Play
You are unable to Rewind
And you cannot hit Pause
To Fast Forward is inconceivable
As all you want to do is Stop
And Eject

An oldie but a goodie this one.
Think I might start sprinkling some of my early ones in every so often ππ€

I do that from time to time: I always check first whether my current followers followed me when I first posted the piece; most have dropped off π¦ I don’t know whether that says more about me or them π

Ach, that’s just the nature of WP I guess isn’t it – folks come and go with time…
But yes, I kind of tested the ‘repost’ element with this one and it seemed to work out okay so look out for more of the same coming up

I think it’s good to mix the old with the new — and there’s always the opportunity to ‘sharpen’ or ‘energize’ the old piece

“Please adjust your tracking” has just come to mind in connection with this piece and thinking about video tapes. I know what you mean though about a little edit here and there.

Really love this. As a retro head I love the association with a VHS video. Do you ever feel like you’re the cursed tape from The Ring? Someone else’s nightmare π³
