I recieved a letter today, in the mail, and I don't understand what he wants from me.
I can't understand that he wants anything to begin with, but what it all comes down to is that
I feel quite sad,
today,
though the clouds are massive, acrylic shapes breaking up like ice over the horizon, playing out these epic battles across the sky.
They are quite beautiful, and the light is shining through my window and tracing bright shapes and colors on the hardwood of the floor and the corner of my bed.
So that's just fine, anyway.
Two things: good food, and good company.
Do you know that feeling? Oh man, it's one of the best!
It's such an incredibly human sensation! Downright wonderful.
This reminds me of the time I went to dinner in this old mansion--built sometime in the 1920s--while I was in St. Louis. It was surreal, sitting at one of those long, mahagony tables, with a lace tablecloth and four different forks, beneath old-fashioned chandiliers. Eating good food, and talking and laughing with people I hardly knew like we'd all known each other for years... while all the while, the mansion shifted with the cool weather outside and the windows grew dark with the sunset.
The full meal took about three hours, and it was wonderful.
Yes, I'm telling you: good food and good company.
That is living!
What an image I'd cast!
in a boat, moving fast
on the currents of water
bound for the sea.
So, I woke up this morning and lay in bed for a while before getting up and picking some clothes up off the floor. Then I went to take a shower; so, I'm standing in the shower, at 6 AM, and all of the sudden I realized that I really, really, REALLY wanted to write a love letter. To anyone, really, b'cuz I'm pretty much feeling like I love everybody.
So I wrote love letters to all m'friends.
It was grand.
Finis.
God, it feels good to be alive today.
