It must be Winter. The sound of the insect orchestra is nonexistent. I sit upon a roof top watching chimneys lazily hack up their smoke. There is no season with greater beauty. Above me is a full moon. There is no object of greater beauty. I feel alive here on the roof, but I'm not sure if that feeling is correct. How does one feel alive without knowing how to feel dead? Is this something I test or wait to find out? If I'm dead, why do I desire nothing more than a loving hug? If I'm alive, why don't I feel so repulsive anymore? Answers can only be bought with time, and I'm not so sure how much of that I have left on loan. The sun will come soon leaving nothing but a shade of myself, a cackling mad man. And I remain with nothing but lonesome. The two of us are no longer on speaking terms inside or outside of my mind.
