Damn son..

Last night was a late one, in fact it has been a week of late collapses and early rises. My head feels like it has been beaten in with my own flatly intoned renditions of power ballads from the club few nights ago. My jaw hurts and the sense of shame is overbearing.

Twice in as many days I have tripped back to the sound of bird calls, ordinarily this would be a pleasure but when the dawn light is switching street lights off down the length of road you are walking, casting a murky and angry swell of cool air, beer soaked party heads and rageful early work risers, you start to wonder if in some small respect you are being laughed at by your fellow animal.

If I were a bird I think other than spending large portions of my life flitting between here and the gulf coast, I would invest a good deal of time practicing whistling the latest tv ringtone at rum soaked moronic figures tottering about at times that God himself set aside for animals and crooks.

The way I see it, this whole universe has it upside down. There is no more horrendous feeling than waking up in daylight, the mere switching on of a light burns into my retinas like some archaic form of torture before all those drugs and sack beatings. Waking up in darkness is certainly more settling for the old nerves. I can feel the power being sucked from my very loins and not in that embarrassing fleshy way but in the deflating ebb of the vengeful hand of death. If I were in any other game, possibly astrophysics, I would try and strike the balance, get what we all want.

I feel like doing more survey but me l a z y.
