Why Me, Lord 1/23/2025 4:26:50 PM
Musings, thoughtful insights, revelations...who needs them. I was sitting in my office cubical yesterday, as I do on occasion, staring at the wall. It's a nice wall as walls go but if I stare at it long enough, I get cross-eyed. So, I'm looking at the wall and this thought comes, out of the blue.
It's a deeply profound thought about the life and times of Edgar Allan Poe. I've never met the man. I've seen a couple of his movies, sure, who hasn't. I've never read anything he wrote. But this thought was moving and eloquent and just something I usually do not think, if you get my drift.
My deepest thought to date was something along the lines of...why do gorillas not eat other gorillas. There's a lot of meat there, right? But, no, these guys are vegetarians. If they could, they would be into smoothies, I'm thinking.
They are mean enough to devour one another if the mood strikes, I'm sure. So...yeah. They shouldn't be veggie eaters. And then another thought struck. How many bananas did King Kong eat in a day. (are you seeing a pattern here, people?) My thoughts are not deep. So, I am thinking...always a dangerous pastime apparently, some alien entity entered my body and took over for a brief but meaningful moment. That's why I had such a disturbing though. I feel so much better knowing the why of things. For a moment, I thought I had actually grown up or something. A terrifying reality, right? Peter Pan has nothing on me, folks. But, I feel okay now. Just saying.
