I've become too complacent of late:
"You got a C in Calculus." Whatever. "You're going to be working 84 hours per week for 6 weeks." Whatever. "Gas prices are through the fucking roof." Whatever. "You have $13 in your bank account and $15,000 in student loans." Whatever. "You shouldn't go for a run, there's a bear in the neighborhood." Whatever. "You need to get those credits petitioned before it's too late." Whatever.
"Your Eddie Izzard DVD is scratched. Ruined." What. The FUCK?!

Here we are, teetering on the precipice of greatness.
And you're already stepping back.
I can feel you pulling away.

I've been watching the Minutes tick by for Hours.
Each one mocks me as it passes into Obscurity.
4:02... 4:03... 4:04...

The ecstasy was so worth the bruises.

Spring is here; a new dawn is breaking.
The sun burns through the mist and the light is caught up in the tiny prisms dotting the earth.
Each leaf, each bud is Nature's own version of a disco ball.
Soon the slumbering beasts are awoken by the melody, and they clamber to join in the ruckus of rebirth.
