    Friendships change like the flows of a river
    consuming elegant banks

    Some last a lifetime.

    Some fly past in five minutes
    In a moment of panicky crisis
    Or a glimpse at what might have,
    if you had just grabbed.

    Friendships are never what you expect.

    Most expect too much
    some expect very little.

    Friendships can be silent for years,
    then come alive with the cacophony of a Blue whale breaching
    mid Atlantic,
    where only the swallows cast an ear

    Other friendships crumble like the chimneys
    and the coal mines of a long gone age.
    Leaving only rubble and shrapnel to sift through.
    In a bomb site of broken friends.

    Sifting you acquire a filthy broken dolls head

    It reminds you of a childhood
    when futures were eternal
    and friends were too.

    Dutch Rukowski

    A wise man once said, "to find out who your true friends are, ask them to help you move but tell them that you can't afford beer and pizza". Actually, I said that, so the wise part is up for debate.
