The funny thing
about legends
is that they take on a life of their own
even with my extended exile
my continued absence from civilization
my legend continues
not only to exist but to grow
I meant to post about this
long ago
but the words failed me
when I was in seattle
this past december
I was reacquainted with mine own legend
it was a peculiar experience
in many different ways
from the girl I went to high school with
who finally, having the security of a long term relationship
found the nerve to admit a long held crush
to the man I'd never met
a large and fairly burly fellow
of the sort I'd prefer not to meet in a dark alley
were I given the choice
whose ass I'd apparently kicked
a few years back
and ever since been fast friends with
it could be true
perhaps I was unusually drunk
but I doubt it
someone recently said to me
"I do not understand you"
and my dears
let me assist you here
if you want to understand me
assume the worst of me
always
and I shall never dissapoint you
I see people
from time to time
whose lives are blessedly black and white
a simple choice between right and wrong
such is not my life
my choices are simple
between the right that is wrong
and the wrong that is right
and yet
you can be assured
I will always choose the wrong one
I am
regardless of stature or ability
a man
fallable in every way
is that they take on a life of their own
even with my extended exile
my continued absence from civilization
my legend continues
not only to exist but to grow

no subject
no subject
my lawyers require the signing of a waiver
releasing me from liability with regard to any therapy
resulting from the use of my journal
but other than that
knock yourself out
no subject

disappoint.
