JOB DESCRIPTION:
I enjoy waking up early and slugging into the kitchen to prepare a breakfast drink of some sort to down my Adderall with. Lingering on the couch sipping it away until my little dog begins barking in the back yard for me to let him in, then wishy-washing whether or not I should A. watch an episode of Degrassi, B. read a bit of fiction, or C. go back to sleep to wake up because sometimes counter productivity is the best production produced.
I attempt rubbing away the hoof prints from last night’s mares.
A. is out of the question because I watched at least six episodes last night while simultaneously hoping Prince Charming in a Maserati or Humbert Humbert in a Melmoth would ring my doorbell, drive me cross country, and drain my heart for the fuel.
Who said gas prices have gone up if you can afford me?
B. I let Kauvuo in and he races around the living room, almost knocking Survivor off of the couch’s armrest. I go with placing second this morning, the book survived the fall and I’m curious to see if Tender Branson will too.
Sometimes life ends halfway and this is the in between extreme of choices.
C., I like reading in bed with morning light shining through my flexed window blinds. There is no (window) pain and my room glows as brightly as what a Sol might resemble—this is why I painted it yellow last November. It’s just me and gravity surviving the bottom of the abyss with enough character development to scramble back out using our tight rope as a climb rope, ready to lecture on the knots along the way to the precipice of the Lake of the Dead.
We just have to get there first.
Full circle we rise, fall across a sea span of days where I have completed the whole alphabet, you C. Eventually I drift back into sleep’s hull—but not before setting my alarm to shoot off with lyrics of all-too-hoped-for Armageddon in just over an hour—after reading a chapter of misery and what I assume to unfold into imminent incest that I can relate to because sometimes counter productivity is the best production produced.
Please submit all applications in the form of a question of my sincerity.
