I am Jane Goodall's Tanzanian monkeys typing about bananas. My fingers are Santa's little helpers. My hope is a sporadic rainfall - yet a torrential downpour in all creative environments. I am Theseus, unspooling golden yarn. Sisyphus, sweating uphill. Bukowski, scribbling away in rooming houses. A river always flowing. I am the nightmare of stagnancy and a God of Imagination.

My 30 is equivalent to your 80...
I went through an old box of writing from jr. high to 94/95.
Strange indeeed.
I went through about half of it before I just gave up and decided that some things in dusty boxes are a pure joy to re-remember, but there's also an aspect of it that it sad. Sad in the sense that you've wasted a lot of time with your family and that you should've been a better corresponder. It's a kick though, to see some good, quality stuff that you wrote way back a million years ago.
Writing on a blog is not what that little boy from a long time ago would've expected to be doing in 05'. But, little boy would've been fucking floored that you could write something, and then have people instantly read it.
I can hear the trees sneezing tonight. Bless you.
I can hear nothing but Jack Kerouac reading something on my itunes and the hum of the air conditioner.
Spike Jones is on now, and I must end this. Nobody, and I mean, nobody can write while Spike Jones is on in the background.
Boy, man or sneezing tree...
