A Sampling of Maybes
Maybe I’m wasted. Maybe I’m non-icon. Maybe I like using hyphens. Maybe I’m all about cultural stupidity. Maybe I’ll write a story about a man who does nothing but sit in his apartment and look at leaves fall. Maybe I’ll reflect the disgruntled stupidity of whatever. Maybe here we are in interstellar space. Maybe there is the plethora of information. Maybe I need to blow it all up and start again. Maybe I'd like to get back the buzz of old days. Maybe the dark hanging tree the those dead yesterdays the shady days of young never will be. Maybe I'll climb Everest and buy my own island and get into selling coconuts. Maybe I am coconuts. Maybe I'm partially asleep. Maybe I'm so far asleep that I'm snoring and drooling and I don't even move when an air horn makes noise. Maybe there once was a man. Maybe you'll never see me again. Maybe you won't mind when I use the word "bereft." Maybe I'm the shallowest man on the planet. Maybe I'm so polite that I can't even eat cake anymore. Maybe not maybe. Maybe you should think more of an English-style pub. Maybe you'll become Kansas. Maybe I'll become Wyoming if first you become Kansas. Maybe I'll be road schematics. Maybe I'll be road schematics with ink blotch roadkill. Maybe the sun breaks through the trees and illuminates the room. Maybe I'm writing to you from the future. Maybe I'm writing to you from two seconds in the future. Maybe I'm the coarse remains of a Chaucer scrap heap. Maybe this is not autobiography. Maybe the moment never fades away.
