Infinite / Finite


Everything is infinite.
Space never ends.
You have a finite number of books left to read in your lifetime.
You have a finite number of films you will have time to watch.
You have a finite number of games you can play.
Have you reached saturation point yet? Can you enjoy everything you have?
There are a finite number of drinks and food.
There is a finite number of times you can get drunk.
There are a finite number of times you can be kind or unkind to people.
You have a finite number of kisses you can send out into the world.
You have a finite number of times you can tell someone how you feel about them.
You have a finite number of times you can have sex with someone. Have you had your last?
Have you had your last kiss?
There are a finite number of people left for you to meet.
There are a finite number of times your heart will beat.
You have a finite number of breaths left.
You have a finite number of days in the ground before you are ash.
Everything is infinite.
Space never ends.

This is not a suicide note.  I am not allowed to do that. That would make me the bad guy. If things were a bit different though I would deffo be eating toast in the bath. I hope I get ill again.

I am now old enough to know I will never get what I want in my life. This is it, my best days are behind me and I wasted them on making do. The sun comes out and I get sunburn in the hope that it will fix my skin. In the hope it will make me better. It just makes my skin fall off in different ways and hurt from a new angle. I look for stuff to fill the box I live in. The space is getting smaller and ...

The Eternal

And then they all stopped talking. What had they been saying? It was definitely something to do with me. I don’t mind. It just makes me laugh to myself. I need to laugh. Even if it’s just an internal thing.  The guy with no hair is round again. Buzz buzz buzz . You open the window but the wasp won’t flay out. He would be better off out there in the world but he would sooner be banging into windows. You bump into the criminal by accident. What do you say? Does he know I know? He must do. He knows the environment. He knows what’s happening. What do you say? You say ‘alright’ and then you move past. You are glad you don’t have your child with you. That would have been weird.  You go back through history. You see all the relics and ignore them for plastic hiding in cabinets.  You are melting. Your skin is coming off. The machine won’t work. Why won’t the machine work? And you try and you try and you try and everyone is looking at you and you are melting.  An...
