Down and Out in Erie, PA
Two full days and no sleep. Nothing new. Actually that's pretty amateur given my track record of endless days. Honestly, it feels good....ain't good for my body, but it feels fucking good. Besides, I always thought I worked better with little or no sleep anyway.
Slows down my brain's usually fast and exhausting thought patterns. After about the first day awake, you make it up, over and past the "hump of exhaustion"....It's easy ridin after this. From thereon, every thought seems less weary and tiring. You are no longer on a normal sleep routine. (The everyday "get up" and "lay down" schedule that most commit to so vigorously) I no longer have to worry about how long I will be staring at the dark ceiling of solitude before I fall asleep.
The normal worries that haunt my days are now thrown to the back burner. There is a silent mission at hand...an under lined quest that is screaming for my attention. Instead of my thoughts processing this great meanings depth...i just don't care...Other thoughts now are finally free to enter my subconscious. This time, however, I approach them with more curiosity and find the new "head fuckers" to be much more revealing. Right to the point--if one is here--My ability to function on little or no sleep brings new vision to my days. Therefore, creating a world that is much, much more simple.
I need my space and freedom to fall into what most people would view as an unhealthy, black abyss of insanity--doctor's orders.
My glass floors I walk on so carefully to make do in this reality of illusions is bound to crack from time to time, And sorry, but I'm letting whatever is underneath suck me in. I'm curious and can not help but be drawn to "great unknown mysteries below".
It's true, my leashes and ropes only go so far,..But eventually when they reach their ends, I take out my knife, cut 'em all and let go--for I need to travel further. I must.
I refuse to remain content or conform to the way of living that so many have righteously adopted purely because it conveys the actions of the majority. But, I do play the "game." Oh yes, I sure as hell have and still do. Don't get me wrong, however, there is always more to be proven as just another ridiculous fact of how Life is to be lived out....
We have all been forced to rush, rush, rush and keep to schedule, OR ELSE. But what we don't realize is that we can TAKE OUR TIME!!
Rush, rush, rush implies the "Do's" and "Get to's" of the future and even further, creates our constant addiction to worries. With that all said, Thank you and take care.
