a toast to indulgance
A 21st century semi-bohemian.-
I guess thats what I'd call myself. and what do I miss about money? -
absolutly nothing. everything.-
I miss what I could get with it. -
dollar-twenty five coffee cakes and cinnimon sticks-
2 each. -
with a cup of ignorance on the house-
but the cream will be $6. -
I just inadvertally accepted the fact that my indulgance was supporting the people who dont let the enlightened ones eat enough. -
And I've been saying it for years. "Someday, I'll do something astounding" I'm indulging in simplicity. I'm empty when I do it, so why am I still here? -
I've smoked to much.-
I've drank and drugged myself to the verge of permanant damage.-
I've been in love with the thought that someone I could never have would look at me the way they look at the size 4 blonde more times than I can count.-
I've been hurt to much. -
I like sex and beer and short skirts.-
I like to dance. -
Does indulgance make me ignorant? -
I hate money, but I'll take anything free.-
and what do I have to show for what I've learned?-
compassion?-
I eat bread and mustard for days before I spend money on caviar and wine. -
Its not guilt. its that I've been there. -
Its my way of making up for not being out there, fighting the good fight, -
I'm still here.-
complacant and bored, waiting for someone or something to strip me completely of my material attachments. So I can dive in head first, stripped down and ready for the fight of my life-
ready for some damn commitment-
i say bohieman because I spend my time on the couch, starving myself and talking crazy, starved, philosophy to everyone that'll sit down long enough to listen-
I'd rather give my money to the sincere and homeless, -
if they ask for it, they obviously need it more than I do. -
and they talk crazy, starved philosophy with me for hours-
I read to much. -
and dont sing enough.-
So heres to bohiemia, heres to knowledge. -
and a toast to those who make movies for us.-
theres not as much singing as one might think,-
its harder then it looks.-
I dont indulge like I used to...-
I Think now... and I'm damn happy.-
