quite inevitably
I’ve gotten nothing accomplished today.
Strolled back from my morning appointment in the still vanishing morning.
The way the sun bounced off the world reminded me of patina and zinc and other things metallic.
Wondered if all people have to concentrate so hard on just walking -- fighting off the urge to run at full pace.
Had a bloody nose halfway home and considered turning back.
Suddenly all come over -- light headed and nauseous.
Counted out the math on my fingers.
24 hours since I’d eaten.
Longer since I’d slept.
Made it home a bit shaky. delirium.
Still trying to find focus, but I’m having trouble keeping myself reigned in.
My eyes just keep closing and closing.
