Its dark outside and what I don't know haunts me ever so constantly. The work is too important and I'm no longer young. The air is cold and there is a buzzing sound coming from the vents in the low ceiling above my head, thats driving me crazy. Harvey Danger plays in my head phones as I facade my facades. Thirty minutes to go and somebody here knows what I want to know but is afraid to tell me or just doesn't know that cup a tea. I wonder why. I don't wanna get up yet, the answer is somewhere here, abstracted.
At some point I can only hope that somebody wakes up and runs a kill on something so that I can be entertained, save a life or be inspired to crash. The menu for today is pork ham choy, beef soup, fried chicken, sweet & sour chicken, fish. The man-ager calls me to the side and askes me if everything is ok, (as if I just came back from rehab). For happiness writes white. I thought. As long as I don't have to interact with anybody on a meaningful level I'll be fine. Espouse. I just want to sleep. Every so often the power goes out and I wish it didn't comeback for an hour. Warm my hards on the monitor.
I often never talk about the lives I've lived or the ways in which I can warm your soul. To know me is to love me. Because when you live by the day, pay by the hour, and sleep on the weekends, you tend to lay in the bed that you made, die by what you live by. Whatever makes you feel alright, whatever people may think, the tall grass. This is how we roll. There is no goal, no devious underlying routine or kernel, hand or mission. Everyday is like a first day and as long as the sun still rises and everything is new, now, today will always be the best day ever i.e. until tomorrow.
There comes a point every so often when I end up at a point of "culture shock". Where the patterns stop occuring as I expected. The noodles in my chow mein don't taste quiet as well. The same parties, the quietly increasing cost of the sunday gleaner, the rain, babies coming out of vaginas, secret weddings. I am not easily surprised but every now and then a new pattern begins to form, a simple enigma. Some are clear while others exist only to confuse me - change my cheque point. On such a rare occasion I will ask a question and get a weird look. Hell is other people.
I solve problems. Troubles. Tribulations. Nothing is ever quite what it seems unless you are apart of it. I have this analogy which I often use to explain a certain theory of relativity. I don't remember where I got it from(I seem to be quoting alot of literature lately - My Coy Mistress). The truth is like the sun, its benefit is totally dependant on how close you are to it. Too close and you'll get burn up in the bueaty of its firey desire. Too far and you won't feel the warmth of its glow and go mad. Not only won't you feel its effect but you'll spin off into the depths of outer space.
At the points where new patterns arise I often end up with a muse. Someone who connects with me on a level that nobody else can. Together we will create bueatiful things. A cookie in the Jar. God's child. A little monkey. Eventually we will loose communictions with our muses, life is bitch depending on how you dress her. And life doesn’t let us forget the best muses we’ve had. And our better muses tend to keep annoying us until we die.
It has been raining a lot for some odd reason which I cannot understand or out think. It makes no sense at all. Let the love back in, give us the sunshine instead of the rain. All that I want is to be happy again. I broke office style code and started wearing sneakers to work, why does it have to be so hard, linger, remain present although waning and gradually dying. I am never ready for what you do.
"Leave pretty women to men without imagination". I have no idea who said that - look it up. And I would rather not be lured into commenting on relationships even when talking to myself. I get myself in trouble. I always say the wrong things like an insensitive bastard from a far away place with wide never ending fields of grass and stone walls on the edge of the ocean. Any comment I make is usually misinterpreted, one false move, its hard to breathe, words fail me, can't trust my hands for the work is too important.
I have not written in a while and without a suitable muse, writing about anything is useless sans something beautiful. Before long I'll start writing about writing. Or I'll just not write anything at all but there is always a ton of beauty in the world that appeals to all my senses. Had I the time to stop, look, smell and kill it. It is like when you feel something for a split second and it changes you somehow that you have to go back again and feed the hunger.
Gods Child commented: sneakers to work?!
were they stylish this-is-not-a-sneaker sneakers? You know the kind--they sort of look like a soccer shoe for punks. ... read 13 more
Paradise? Most people have no Idea what programmers are like, and why they do what they do and not just get a regular job like a fireman or get pregnant. Its because we can't and I'm not even going to try and explain it because it just gets me weird looks in the "fresh fruit" lane of the supermarket. Blindfold me because what you don't know can't really hurt you. There is a thousand yous but only one of me.
Enjoying? I once upon a time subscribed to the whole: "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" theory but I've been hearing that phrase quite a lot as of late. Its become sickening. That and "Enjoy you stay". Definately a change from the cliff I was jumping off before, now I'm just climbing up can't tell you how it looks yet. Alot more structured and pragmatic like, say a prison camp except they don't kill people - with guns - but with air conditioning, subsidized lunch and bonds.
Its not so bad so far, made it a couple lunchs, read through 2 policy manuals and am planning a prision break as soon as I find an exit through the maze of cubicles. To my surprise we can go casual on fridays - yay. I'll probably still wear the long sleave and tie because I'm getting quite comfortable in them right now, keeps my arms cool and people have stopped giving me "looks" and refering to me as "paster". I'm optimistic, play secretary and the boss tonight, I no longer feel like I am going to a wedding everyday. Harder, faster, stronger.
For the past couple months I have been trying to become a normal person and its not working out at all. Even my mother seems to have given up on the prospect of onetime status quo. People have even been saying that I have not been paying them enough attention as if they are illegitamate children that I forgot to remember while lost in the jungle of my mind's eyes. I miss my muse like I miss the smell of freshly cut grass on a square foot of lawn.
If another one of my exs has a bastard child by a random stranger out of wedlock I am going to marry the first girl that thinks not calling everyday is normal. I don't know why. I have issues like everybody else. But unlike common people my issues are specific and redundantly obvious like the fact that there are no monkeys in Jamaica - literally speaking. My issues don't just popup at random, they live with me forever as if an irreplacable limp that grows out of my face. Figurately your just a poor loser and maybe this is good for you because I hear love makes you tired.
The other night live music was playing just below the limit where my ears was starting to bleed. Trying to revive what little creativety I had left. I haven't written for weeks. I was talking to the girlfriend of the guy that was on the keyboard, while sipping on the complimentary local drink/half liquor. In the pursuit of normalcy I often put astray my own desires for sake of not being locked away in the far corner of the office near the water cooler. If they had a water cooler by which to be placed at, by beside, upon, henceforth thereafter. Though I'd never thirst for the quickness there in, oh fountain of joy.
