Forgetting

Apr 06, 2009 22:21

I think sometimes about nepenthe. How it could be to forget everything that has come before, the past no longer ruling and deciding our future. I don't remember where I heard it, but the sentiment is clear: "If you have one foot in yesterday and the other in tomorrow, you'll piss on today". I've never forgotten that adage.

I'm not feeling good anymore, which could have been deduced without me saying anything by looking at my poetry choices for the past couple days. I'm sure it's just stress and a little self-hate; things can only improve from here. Each day goes by quickly. I've found that if I focus on finding The Perfect Poem for the day, time goes quicker. Each day will accumulate. Already six days of April are gone, just like that. Soon, May. Finally June. The summer has never felt like such an escape for me before. :| I just want to sleep and forget things.
