On all the crap I learned in high school
It's a wonder
I can think at all
And though my lack of education
Hasn't hurt me none
I can read the writing on the wall...


Here I am in the capital of my state, not my mental state or even my physical state of being, but rather the capital of the region of my country that is known as a state. And so here I sit after eating some of the local food and my belly is full and I feel rather bloated about the entire foodfest. And still here I sit flashing back to my days amongst the vampires as I watch the vampires flashing across the big screen in front of my eyes. The vampires that are immortal, saved, archived forever in some giant database of all things from that time. Immortal, yet they were all too human as they lived out their lives in some grand play, and there I was amongst them - at times more of a vampire than the rest, and at times far too human to survive in their midst...

And there was the cult - the religious order that would sweep out amongst the vampires, sucking some in with its intensity, its excitement, its firm hold on the world of man. Much of it has come and gone, much like a rocket that burns brightly as it reaches toward the Heaven, explodes in all its glory, and the embers float gently to earth and are one by one extinguish but a few. And these few continue to smolder waiting for a gentle breeze to reignite the flames religious fervor...

As I sit here remembering the past in a land far from home knowing that I can never again go back to what once was. The past is gone forever and will never return. Nothing can go back to what it was, everything changes, nothing remains the same, and this is the only truism of this existence - life is a one-way street that leads to a dead-end...

And so I sit here in this strange town so far from home thinking about the past whilst I move further from it. I sit here ponder the fact that I have been flashing back to my days amongst the vampires whilst hold the remote for the television that has a flashback button upon it. I have never held a remote that allows one to flashback with the pressing of a single button. Interesting is this strange land with its strange devices...

And such is a single day in my life far from home...

This is the Word of the AntiCrust...

Praise be ye who Read the Word for ye are Blessed amongst humans...

Very nice words - but I am polluted by some references and I don't know why but I want to say... FLONK.

 

But this was a lovely post, truly! I just can't get the flonk out of my head...

My Dearest, I do not even know the meaning of the word Flonk. And I sincerely mean that. Really I don't. Funny it was how it came about, I was watching some vampire program and I looked at the remote and there was a flashback button upon it and I wondered what it would be like to press the button and it flashed me back to the Golden Age of the UN...

And thank you ever so muchly, I am pleased that you have enjoy a bunch of words that flowed out of my head...

I've been all into Simon and Garfunkel the past few days.

Sounds like you've spent way too much time watching professional politicians. But then, that's probably just me.

Re: When I think back...
It just happened that being in the capital of my great state I had to go up and down the dial to find some music that I could listen to. And during some of this searching I ran across Kodachrome and thought I'd use it. And being that I am of great age, everything I have from S&G and Paul Simon (the only Art Garfunkel stuff I own is on cassette) is on them big ole frisbee things and I don't get to listen to them often. Alas this is a tragic tale of woe that I weave...

Well, you can adjust your music world, as I have very recently done.  My ex took all the music.  That was seven years ago.  Just this past year I started building my own CD library....one at a time, about one or two a month.  It's really fun to listen to all the old stuff on CD.  It sounds much better than the old LPs, and they're so easy to store.  It's like a whole new world.

Re: When I think back...
I have about 400 LPs, and some I do have in multiple formats, many of The Beatles and The Band have gone digital. The problem I have is that musical folks keep putting out new music that I must have, which cuts into my budget for replacing older versions. I cannot make them stop releasing new music. They must be stopped so that I can get caught up with all that needs replaced. I mean like I already have 400-500 CDs and I don't have enough, I need more, I need my fix for I am addicted to music. I need help...

Wow.  I think I'm up to about two dozen CDs now.....LOL!!
