SLOW ANIMAL – “SITTING HERE”
The Future isn’t as good as it used to be. The Future is The Road. The Future is 2012. The Future’s over before we even get there. Tomorrow is already written in the fiction of today and the words are black and charred, and the sun is crashing down on our damned souls turning us to ash and cinder and ill heat.
Why, then, the rush, the plan-making, the looking-forward-to? Let time drag long and slow like broken clocks, be drawn out forever sitting here in yesterday’s blackhole.
Don’t look back? I’m not looking anywhere else. I couldn’t stand the sight.
