the bus ride made her unwell, added to the feeling of sickness from unexpected
warm temperatures and coming over-equipped for the weather, and unequipped
for hydration. she walked on home, the sun in her eyes. Halfway there she had
an inexplicable urge to take off her shoes and walk barefoot in the cool trickles
of water running down the side of the road. she composed herself, but marvelled
in springs progression, conveyed by the glistening reflections of sun in the gutters.
a beautiful sense of nostalgia, of care-free springs, sending leaves and twigs down
those macro rivers and watching them spiral down in the current. she thought
she might have to do that again, and soon. nothing better than a dose of childhood
innocence to beat that mundane existence and those walking blues.

You can't...

neighborhood nights

I feel like somewhere along my life there was a shift. Suddenly nothing was for fun any more, it was all necessary. Suddenly I'm bothering with what others think, afraid to link any connotations I deem negative to my being. Why do I care what people I've never met, who'll forget they ever saw me, think of me; this obscure stranger in their peripherals. It's a warped sense of mind and place, seeing the space around me in my mind's made up ways. So I stray away from everyone, isolating myself unwittingly, turning them against me. Self fulfilling prophecies, I succeed in creating this reality. I need to break free from my mind's mentalities, with which negativity has propelled me. So I've started a new sport. I call it neighborhood night dancing. Donning headphones and heading out alone to the empty streets as the city sleeps, and moving to the beat. Letting it compel me towards a freedom long gone missing. Letting go is an art. Complete release is a tough ...
