My Burn

Post by Toolmaker » Fri Sep 07, 2007 8:26 am

Greeters Station:

Pulling up someone in a polar bear suit ran up waving their arms. It turned out to be Dicky who I had a nice chat with. A girl left her glass bottle of whisky behind after we emptied it. I got a kiss on the cheek by a cutie pie whose name I don't know. I made a playa angel and tasted playa. I rang a bell and than Ricks POS RV wouldn't start back up.

Finding 4&C:

Upon 4AM arrival we found Doc and Graham awake and parked it for the night. Everyone wanted sleep except for me. I wandered out to the man and watched the sun rise on Saturday morning. It was really nice seeing everything being worked on watching the final stages of the city be put in place. Around 9AM after meeting MANY great people from DPW who were likely making sure I wasn't some lunatic I found my way back to camp. I met Mongolian and chattted for a few minutes never to see him again for the rest of the week even though he was camped across the street. I was sitting on the ground roadside staring off into the distance reflecting on my experience so far in the shade of the trailer and got showered by the water truck.

For me it stopped - rolling, spinning, falling like a hub cap in front of the temple. I held it together until the song stopped and the crowd fell silent. And then sobbed like a lost soul.

Oh my sweet vanishing burn. Oh my spirit my life my loss. My burn.

...


A girl gave me her prayer beads. I must have looked a mess.

Thank you !!

I often don't realize how hungry I am until I sit down which led me to having meals in the dust storms this year.

BB Sue emerged from whiteout, searching: "Hello! Hello! Everybody ok?"
I said "Oh hey Sue! Want something to eat?"
She says "We're on Alpha. I don't get breaks."

It definitely is and it's an art form Apokiliptika has mastered. It's one of the things my g/f is still talking about.
