ALONE.
Just alone.
That is a state I am valuing more and more.
I fled my home to escape trouble
And with it, I fled the matrimonial tide.
My friends are pairing off and reproducing.
Am I alone in wanting to be alone?
Sometimes I envy Adam of Eden
strolling luxuriously among the beauty
talking to God or the animals for company.
He being the only human.
Cheese?
Alone is okay for a while, but it gets quiet. Reproduction is a 20 year commitment, after that you can charge rent and board. More and more 20-30 year olds are living at home. I'd be happy just to have someone to play Scrabble with from time to time. I was considering solitude earlier today. Like Lewis Black, the commedian, and I paraphrase: "I come into my apartment and I hear it! Quiet. I love it!"
