Hi, My Name's Rice Wheelock!






I'd never download a film. Somebody gave me an MP3 -
haven't loaded a note. I refuse to install the web on my
smart phone. I don't take pictures, sometimes, 'cause
I'd rather the scene fade away, snapshots like an
errant Polaroid, so that my mind plays tricks
with the images all the rest of my life,
that's the way I'll know I'm still sane,
when nothing is so extraordinary,
nothing out of place, everything
where it belongs, the endless
days, oblivious and sedate -
But, although I will forget
everyone I ever met, and
every stranger becomes
my friend, so then I'll
die ... yet, to linger
a little while
longer

in `

`this `

` ` floating `

` world `
