I overhear gossip and wonder why other men's affairs
are such a popular topic of conversation among those of the human persuasion. Is
this a hobby that will be worth looking back on in senior years? Or something easily
forgotten, shelved alongside favors owed and promises broken, behind that locked door of
things conveniently misplaced? When I was approached I saw no profit in
guessing motives and interpreting actions. Indeed, I have enough of my own to
wonder about. Oh, the burdens some will carry just to be permitted to spill a little
suspicion at the feet of those who in turn beg to share the load, never recognizing in
time that this weight only gains in intensity and volume, rather than becoming lighter
when emptied of its contents into the open seas of poisoned consciousness, which call for
aid from helpless victims who have taken in more than a single mind can hold without
bursting apart, displaying a cluttered heap of refuse, impossible for any healthy man to
digest without further injury to himself and all within range of hearing. Rick Deering |
