Quit the bitch- Last 12 hours of pure WALL prose
Within the releam of a daily diet consisting of word-threading and frozen pipe fixing, there came the understanding none of you, or none of this terrorist war, or none of this mayhem exists other than through media as entertaining sub-plots to a movie which ends with the move-goers, mine, yours, death. People being killed on news feeds has no apparent affect on my life, just as people being killed in some James Bond 007 movie does. Drop a bomb and annihilate a country, or assassinate an Arizona judge by a crazy dope head- in reality, has no affect on you, me or us, unless we were there. The images we see, the words we read and hear are the false realities we react upon- not the incident itself. And there in lies the rub: we are all so bored with the world intimately surrounding us, that those images and crises make us feel involved and important especially if WE have an opinion. But you see, take away the images and words read and heard, you're left with you. Look around. Any blood? Bodies? Mayhem? I'll answer for you. No! There isn't. Or you wouldn't know what I just wrote because then your life would be fulfilled with that which you seek from those images and words: a sense of fear, of hate, of sorrow. Without those images filling in holes in our stagnant lives, we'd be inclined to only bitch about the weather. Is that such a bad thing though? Smiles :)
