Outpost
I dream my blood might show
some life; jump out of me.
At present the idea of spending
the whole winter tied to a couch
sounds quite pleasant. A cryogenic
hibernation, an acceptance that I
have nothing to offer under a certain
temperature. There is no other organism
here. No green tree, no roaring fire.
Just me and the cheating computer.
Same as every year. I will wait a little
while and see. I'll tie myself
to the couch. It's only when
you start making comparisons
that things seem off.
