Quote
You are a man, not God; you are human, not an angel. How can you expect to remain always in a constant state of virtue, when this was not possible even for an angel of heaven, nor for the first man in the Garden?

I’ve been having trouble concentrating, still. Ever since the trip. I have gotten a thing or two done, however. Tuesday night I formulated a very tight general implementation plan, and I need to go over it to see if it makes sense. Or if I can reduce it further, even. As far as everything else, the brother is in town on business, been here a bunch of times recently, it seems. Also, I’m getting the iTaxi stuff done, too. We’ll see how far that will go. And as far as everything, as a sum total, I’d have to say that life is pretty darn good. We should be thankful for these times, even when we don’t have anything to be ecstatic about. Seriously, if it were all ecstatic, all the time? How could anyone get any work done?

break
at the breaking of the light, the splitting of the dark
while the mind turns a thought over and over and over
i am stranded on a foreign shore, afloat in a dream
as the disinterested current washes over my slow dying
the life that leaves me, as i bleed time: roses folding
but as the dawn yawns open to lift the stellar night away
i remember when i stopped consulting the oracles
and how i was thrown into the stark, limitless freedom
and as the dawn overtakes all memory of darkness
there is life left in me to start again: a rose yet blooms
the fragrance of the day a strange flower, still, still
hope growing new on the vine, drinking from the river

Is what I am trying to accomplish too ambitious? Is it too much for one man? Such things Albert Einstein was told when he tackled gravity, and out came General Relativity. Took him 10 years. Myself, I don’t know if what I’m working on quite encompasses that scope, but it is true that I have bitten off quite a mouthful with my objective. More than I can chew? So far, it has proven very chunky, but who knows? I had a small vision in my mind on the 19th: I saw something of a t being crossed, an i being dotted, and for a moment I felt as if I had it, had the thing figured out enough to think, I might be able to get this thing working, after all. Really, who knows?

In other news, an old friend is having issues about his life and, as he put it, would not like to “re-engage” with me at this present time. I don’t really know what’s going on there, but I was something of family to him and his blood back when. A couple three years back, I let out a careless chuckle, and that seemed to trigger something in him, something perhaps that was waiting to spill over. He is perhaps bitter with the way his life has turned out, being a Harvard graduate and ending up cataloging music in Canada. One wonders if he will resolve these psychologies, but for now, all I can say is that I will pray for him. Been praying for him for quite a while.

What else? Right now there are like females (sorta) in my life. Actually, should italicize and bold the “sorta”. Not the ex, of course, who is the one whom I really would like contact with, but oh, well. May be nothing but a blip, though, and a rapidly passing light in the dark. The cool, cool dark, where I spend most of my hours. But stranger things have happened than me with company, and I have been through some of those experiences. So this is what it’s like for this cloistered soul, here in the greatest city in the world. Which means it’s probably what the Book of Revelation called “Babylon”, meant for destruction at the end of time. Sigh. You just can’t win.

In which I’m pretty content, for once in this bedazzling life.
