The Skinny

I'm in the process. I'd like to expand on that, but it's in the process. I go about my business under the guidance of gut-feelings and universal street signs. I see myself as a very quiet person. Not because I have little to say, only that my abundant thoughts know not where to start. As a child I fantasized about looking through a telescope to give me truth about the world. It amuses me now that what I am doing is looking down a microscope in an effort to reevaluate my holistic position. I am a loner, a drifter, a dreamer.

Code Blue



I think that heart surgery I had as a child was a flop. They sutured up the hole in the largest chamber, but they neglected to tighten the laces. Consequently emotions don't stick around long. Troubling symptoms arise. As fresh emotions enter my ventricles, they slip through the leak and mix with the used. Thus diluting everything I feel with a touch of the old. My heart sustains me, but serves only to suspended me in this comatose place. I don't have the mechanics to rise into consciousness. Still, this does not distress me. I lack the capabilities to feel even that.
