In Transit

Three Weeks Off

OK, I'm slacking. There's a lot of shit to do. I essentially have another three weeks off… I only really have class on Mondays and Tuesdays. I really have to force myself to write every day.

This is going to drive me insane.

I've got to do better than this, at least fifteen minutes a day, maybe.

Burdens

The though was "betrayal"
or maybe it was "onus"
The unpayable debt, the blood price
(And if I paid it, would I be free?)
My memories are of Atlas lifting the world on
                                                        his shoulders
Sisyphus rolling up the Stone.
The karyatid crushed beneath the load…
