Suspended Kinetic Xmas

We are having a competition at my office on who's work space has the most creative xmas setup. well, our office took the prize (literally the co-workers that were competing came in yesterday morning, saw this and said we give up! ha) I built the supports and wood track to support this 027 Gauge train. Track dimension is 8'(l) x 2'-3(w)". It took me about 8 hours of design and construction time to complete. I plan to upload another video with the office lights off and the xmas lights in full regalia!

13.What a number
It's good to start over
My bookmarks are gone
no longer am I clung to
10 Of the Most Secret Programs Developed by The C^#
or How To Live Underground And Still Get A Suntan
or How to Travel Tunisia And Survive The Sinking Sands
or What Makes Time Relevant and How Did I get Involved in This Process Anyway
or How to make an Omlette Without Eggs In E flat

I am a new man
a myth of my proportions
I make no standard
I set it all myself
And there it goes out the window
like a dove into the ether

drifting sleep
random words
and something precise
like that time we huddled
in the caves
drew lines and representations
emulated the hunt
good portent
good omen
I like where I am
in the riches of mind and soul
only the priveledged can know
I've been up
I've been down
I've been all around
this garbled traffic mind of mine

Life is a busy
downtown street
car and truck vye for position
struggling to make the light
sticking down on the brakes
to avoid an accident
pedestrians run to avoid getting
run over by bedlam and pure destruction
within the traffic current
