i used to wander back & forth &
in & out of houses not my own
wondering what i was doing there
looking out those windows or
touching the lamps on
the tables there
one day i found i was after something
i already had
i ain't been back or forth
or in or out of any
of those houses since
because of the one day
that one day i took the road
& not for a round trip either
houses not my own
houses not my own

Re: houses not my own
reminds me of a few relationships - the eerie feeling of looking at the person and feeling like you don't know who they are - like they are a stranger. and either they or you are out of place
Re: houses not my own
lots of ways to interpret this. the literal images are are cool in themselves, a little spooky. this reminded me of that "houses in motion" song by the talking heads..
Re: houses not my own
Thx Dame, Dino, & mnaz - i enjoyed reading all your musings on this more than actually writin' the thing. Thx folks.
