Unsorted
The usual phrase is “out of sorts”, I know, but I'm not frazzled, nor frenetically enfeebled. Nor confused, nor depressed. Nor happy nor sad. Seville Orange, anyone?
No, not even that.
This is one of those times where what you thought was terra firma has been whisked away, revealing that bedrock is actually further from firmament than you thought. And I suppose that the dowsing realization's most dismal prospect is that of losing Heaven. Or at least proximity thereto.
When I remember that that isn't the case, when I look at the fog over the City and take it as evidence that Heaven is only as high up as you imagine it to be, I'll have sorted my life—quickly, bubbly or binarily—into something where balance is restored and the devils of mediocrity, mundanity, modernity and [insert alliterative multisyllabic “M”-based muttering bon mot] will just have to go back to not understanding the sublimities that usually infuse and orbit my magical me.

Sometimes the news reports landslides and they show those pictures of houses that have crumpled down a hill. That hill was once so solid, and people built their homes upon it.
That's kinda like life sometimes. Under the right circumstances even stone moves like water.
has that evil stepsister, ennui, grabbed you by the balls? it'll pass...i have to kick that bitch's ass at least once a month myself...xo. d.
Oh, if only it were just ennui. It's the opposite, actually. A recalibration of the innerworld and outer. Siiigh.
But even though it's not ennui, the same kind of thing is effective at distraction. You know what I mean, right, Dean? :)
meh. maudlin maunderings. muzzle!
mayhaps make merrier?
yeah, i DO know what you mean...that's the OTHER evil stepsister...good thing I didn't go into counseling :-)...see what an oblivious listerner/interpreter i can be? yikes! xo d.
Jeff:
You write so well. I am in constant awe of your talent. I have the sneaking suspicion that you have the ability to actually insult someone without them ever realizing it. That is a gift!!! Keep up the good work Jeff! ;)
