super saturday

It was great seeing the students again. It reaffirmed why I wanted to go into education: to help underprivileged kids find a way to college, to find a passion of their own.

I spent the rest of the weekend with Brian. It was pleasant. Saw VI was a decent movie. I purchased a new pair of frames for ten dollars.

Pleasant. Nice. Fine.

I was hardly able to sleep Sunday night, though. New environment. New implications. Many things kept me up. Changes. Consistencies. Expectations. Disappointments.

What much else can I say?

stare medusa right into
her bloodshot eyes
gazing into a monster
to become a monster
and die a little inside.

blood stops
the heart hardens
keep staring until
every last fiber
becomes stone.
