I’ve grown tired and silent amidst all this language of defining with, what a woman is and ciswoman and keeping up with the genders. Do we really have this much time on our hands? I am weary of bitcoin and investments making money while you sleep because of the luxury this creates, and in all this talk about money, I’ve grown silent… I hear rumors and rumors of war, and in the silence, I think, ah…
I watched her rise and fall over our sleepy little town. That dead rock in the sky, that shines over us all… Who knows the secrets here? Where? Where everyone pretends that nothing happens.
The warm salt waters of the Gulf Stream flow north from Mexico, along the eastern continental shelf, passed Cape Breton and beyond. Cold arctic air sweeps down over frozen tundra and bristles raised hairs on hunched backs, along Labrador and into the Northumberland Strait. Where these 2 meet is a spit of land that rises out of the Atlantic, just north of New York City, and is formerly known as New Scotland. It’s because of this; the north winds and the south currents that the conversations here are usually always about the weather…
To an outsider, it would appear as if nothing else goes on here but the weather. However, appearances are deceiving. Nothing is as it seems…
Reminds me of the old joke… A man from the city asks a fisherman, “What do you do around here for excitement.”
The fisherman smiles, ” In the summertime we fish and we fuck. In the winter, we don’t fish. “
When I was a kid in the 1960s, the farmers could be heard lamenting about a changing world that they feared.
Beautiful stone cobbled streets of small towns were replaced with “The Shopping Mall Generation!” AND cities grew. “Who would grow the food?” The farmers asked.
But did anyone see this coming down the pike? A generation so smart that they make money while they sleep?
A generation who became so important that not having children became for them, the best option. Which is probably the best thing since we can no longer determine genders…
I am not afraid. I am not in control. I am embarrassed… or am I entertained?
I pretend I don’t know why there is so much unhappiness and rage.
If you aren’t cultivating relationships and you don’t have to work and you are having your food and sex delivered… What exactly are you doing with your time? I would be writing, painting, and making films, but that’s me… I am being left behind.
