Raymond
























There is a strange feeling here.  It's like short-sightedness.  I only say that because I'm very sensitive and particular when it comes to my vision.  I need to have a view of something to do work, open space, and right now it's like looking straight at a wall and when I look out the window it's a wall, literally.  I'm looking at a wall.

There's no wonder, there's no story out there, just stucco across a skinny driveway.
And when I say everything is connected, this is what I mean.
I've found comfort in a beautiful cage with nothing to see.  

And as such, all the feelings that had meaning to me were lost in the bliss.  In a placenta of ignorance and numbing domestication.  It's why the cows come home and the horses run free.  

I didn't realize the reins weren't in my hands 'til just now, right this very moment.  Some had been walking me at a trot.  And I love her.



PS this is not an allusion to Carver, it's a street name.
