i know, i've been serious, haven't i? for my whole life, i suppose, except for about two years in sacramento where i avoided much of my difficulties and just lived. should i do that again, can i live with such abandon? no, i can't. not now, now with all this weight. and yet, i dont' think i have to be so serious, don't think i have to ignore the blooms and the worms and the clouds in the sky. lately, i've looked at them with forlorn, as if they're a part of a different world. but we share the same world, don't we? so i've secluded myself, so i've drawn inward and inward, every chance i get. how do i push outward? or maybe i just need to enjoy a few things. this is not such a deep puddle; i was enjoying myself just days ago in oklahoma.
i am comfortable and safe here in my apartment, with my bed nearby and water from the sink in case i need them. if i venture outside, i have to deal with other people, not having everything i want, and accepting the world for what it is, rather than how i would make it. maybe i'll take my sillly putty around with me today, a piece of show and tell, a reminder that silliness is a virtue, and i have as much time as i need.
