Dominoes
"Wasting time with dominoes. A day
so dark, so warm, life that comes to no harm."
Started today excited. It had the best of every
possible world in it. It wasn't a neutral day either. Then, like bubbles
popping, every last bit of anything worth a fuck slowly vanished. I just want
today to be over. I want nothing that I now feel like I don't deserve. I want
to be left alone by the gods who would fuck with me. I just want to be free of
the shame and humiliation of having gotten a little too excited about the new
toys under the tree, you
know?
Fuck.
It
just proves that it is better not to expect a damned thing and to be surprised
that once in a decade when something great happens to you. Then again, trying
to make the best of it maybe I need to remember that it isn't my job to be here
to take or to enjoy my own things. It is my place to lend without expecting to
get anything back, to give without strings, to help without expectation. It is
a lot nicer when I'm in the right place to be that guy. Today I just want to
not do today anymore.
There were cool
dreams last night. I didn't update them this morning because I was on cloud
nine about tonight. Now I just don't give a fuck about some lame-assed blog.
The dream report can wait.
