No Change for the Meter

The memories zip by

like cars to a tree

on the sidewalk,

but there are those

that stay parked

at the curb...

Short, but sweet. Free-form poetry is nice. For me, it felt somewhat lacking, however... like it was trying to convey a story, but it fails to deliver which makes it kind of a let down (I personally don't like endings that are more abstract, left to interpretation). I was originally going to give you 8/10, but I bumped it up to 9/10, because I have to admit that I liked the message. At least for me, it was saying, "Some try, while others stay in safety."

Thank you man, I really appreciate it.
It could mean what ever it means to you...
It's pretty much a different way of saying day dreaming.
