All while I am laying here on the sofa watching a full season marathon of community while actually stills going TO community college…. Sigh.. Ain’t life grand.

The people outside scare me. they are perfect and know all the secrets. outside is a daze,  a fog over a moat that keeps me from them. and i think i can be out there and i thought it was clear but i wonder what was that? something without fear. 

I want to learn French so that I can speak it in my head to myself. Walking down the street today I felt like my whole life I’ve had my eyes shut. I had clear thoughts and saw a lot of beauty in  a way that I haven’t seen it in a long time. I thought about the sound of train tracks underneath you as you drift quickly through rice patties and mountains in jungles: The sound of being asleep.  For a brief moment I realized that my subconscious was not focused on the way my arm was swinging, or the tilt of my head, I was looking out, and I think I began to see.  I don’t know, but when the walk ended I drifted back to my world of closed eyes, but I’m begging, pleading with myself, keep them open, I don’t want to live asleep.
