a mysterious lady told me i am a landlocked mermaid:emerged from the ocean with legs and a shine i can't lessen even though others might try to make me. i now give much heed to mysterious ladies. girls i grew up playing Nintendo with are having babies and starring in their own personal generic happily ever Mormon afters and the guys are being shipped off straight from high school to preach a gospel they neither understand nor care about, two years of being ***** and righteous and shrink-wrapped in guilt. i think they are the landlocked ones i am getting out of this ocean-less place with a tactic that goes a little something like throwing a dart and chasing it with my eager feet wherever it  may go.
