DEBASER

*

It's 2012 and I'm still trying to figure out where I was in 1998.  The people I knew, online, they are gone.  Where did they go?  I was the one of the few who didn't pursue this life in the '90's.  I was the idiot who thought that maybe he had a life beyond the computer.  Idiocy runs amok.

Fifteen years later I see friends running IT corps, NYC, Chicago, Seattle, and I'm over a year unemployed.  Listening to old Police.

Strange how songs can take you back.  Secret Journey.

I used to listen to Ghost in the Machine repeatedly while playing Rogue.

*

You will see light in the darkness.  You will see joy in this sadness.  You will find this love you missed.

I missed a call from a guy selling a Jeep Cherokee on Sunday.  I'm pissed but also wondering where I would go.  I'm due for a visit down in GA but...

I'm sitting in a room, in Great Mills, Maryland.  I have nothing.  But maybe that's the key to getting it all back.
