pen and paper

Aug 23, 2005 23:35

the stroke of blue ink to white crisp paper. creating the folds and bents of a letter. creation, which brings us closer to the words we make. not punching in QWERTY, representation of letters by numbers through electrical circuits.

paper and pen. it was an inky pen, with a short metal nob to direct the flow of the ink. flip the paper over and you can't feel any imprints which ball point pens would have definitely made. fountain pens scratch the paper, whiffs of the paper gathers on tip.

it was a sensation of haze which brought me to choose pen and paper versus keyboard. can clouds clear itself up? because that was the kind of haze it was, clearing. on the surface, what is beyond cannot be seen. but step into this 'haze' for the other side is completely clear, and you'll realize that the haze was paper thin. how quickly we'll assume the difficulty of what lays ahead.

i don't know what you'll find on the other side of your haze. maybe a pot of gold or a whale waiting. if all the world is a stage, then i found a play which i was a main character. it was happiness, exactly what doctor marina ordered. and each scene was so simple. the script beautifully handwritten, with details left to the imagination of the viewer. the main scenes were in cars, and how quick and ephemeral they were, one would not have guessed their sway in the storyline. because they became the reason to life.

so now the scene has been set, the actors must now consistently play their role, incite passion and change. because this is how you keep coming back to it, like disneyland is to children's happiness. everything is set up that way. am i speaking about eternal happiness? eh...? what i would like to point out is that we weren't given the gene of 'The Concept of Time' at conception, pity the man who must plan for us.

And yes, this is my attempt at writing about happiness, without a picture. first on paper, then further explained with electronics. and you're kind of right, it feels as if it can't get better than this. but then again, when have i been able to clearly explain myself with words only?
