Eargasm: Clocks
Yesterday was a long and tiring Wednesday. I started my day at 7am and ended at 6:30 pm. College sure is fun..in a weird way.
It became stormy towards the end of the day, and I had to seek shelter in the EGI building before heading off to PE class. I was with Anne, who was cuddling with her boyfriend next to me. So I preoccupied myself with the rain. I stared and stared at it... yeah, boredom.
My thoughts drifted to the countless raindrops that came splashing down on roofs, pavements and people's heads. I wondered if these are the same raindrops that came down in the year 1649. What was a rainy day like, say, in England, in the year 1649? I imagined dark, rainy days, light drizzles...I thought of what people were doing on a rainy day in 1649..One could be at home, writing letters to a loved one, another could be frantically grabbing the laundry left outside to dry and another could be facing a crowd of hundreds as they come to watch his execution. For some reason, it fascinated me.
I gave myself random dates and thought of what it would be like on a rainy day..It would definitely be different. On a rainy day like yesterday, people were just running for shelter and others were talking and smoking.
here's something i'd like to share with everyone:
the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk,
mad to be saved, desirous of everything at
the same time, the ones who never yawn or
say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn,
burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles
exploding like spiders across the stars...
- Jack Kerouac
