"I never did like those boom tubes."

Fast fits the desires, satisfies the immediate need. But I guess its the slow and easy part that does the cultivation.

She's quite a girl huh?

Yeah, good teacher too. But some things can't be taught. Some things you only get to experience.

Like what?

Clarity.

I've been happy before when all I got was 3 minutes with you there the first time you tell me 'bout the skies you like. I was juz sitting there on my own. Never asked for anybody to plomp their asses beside me.

Now I haven't even got 3 minutes. And whether I've got the right to whine for someone to plomp their asses down beside me or not, I'm still sitting here alone and not asking. Not contemplating 'bout pizza either.

I sure hope there isn't going to be a third week though. I've got plenty other stuff to sigh about and accept as part of lousy life.

If everybody's a bigger hotshot than you, and there's just stuff to be done, why should any of it be your problem? The smaller stuff are expendable, and nobody treasures or respects them much. But they also fit in easier, get to slip through the cracks, harder to miss, faster to weave their way through anything. Life's easier when you're small.

A lot of scum are small too though. Somehow you gotta be bigger than that.
