Maybe I was naive the first couple of moments - that being seconds, hours, months or years depending on your time frame - and yes, I rely on Earthly terms when defining time spans, because, why not, as you say? I found that the best way to express myself was in short sentences, because, why not? I mean, that at least made me one of you. So, I recently discovered that the best way to keep hair away from your face is to cut it off or draw it back in a ponytail. That, indeed, confused me, because I did not quite had the ability to imagine myself pulling my hair back in a ... animal's tail. I allow myself to hate my style of writing, dislike my ordinary - well-adapted - behaviour and praise my own lip syncing skills. I certainly would not miss the internet for the world! What are your favourite trends? Retro tech, avocado sandwiches worth Instagramming or cyber-sex?
How has your day been, you would ask? Based on what? Weather forecast, or what food I have been consuming the last couple of hours, or the result of my English grammar test from elementary school (did that even exist when I killed the Prince of Egypt?), or the way I managed to find a tiny bit of safety in a stranger's backyard, when someone set fire to my first ever written poem, or maybe on my newly improved sense for oral hygiene that had been criticized until - oh, you know, now? Is there even a certain and reliable definition of "when" and "now"?
I am, to this day, still breathing.
I am listening. Sensing. Floating.
Because I am.
