Sometimes I Pretend I’m a Snowflake

Sometimes I pretend I’m a snowflake.
And I luxuriate in the quiet and the stillness …
And in the oh-so-slow falling that seems to go on … and on … and on.
And I revel in my own unique individuality while marveling at the collective beauty that I am a part of.

And then, invariably, I get bored, and I want to do something else.
But I’m a snowflake, so I can’t.

And then I hit the ground, and all these other assholes land on top of me … smushing me …compressing my delicate features to the point where I am no longer recognizable.

My journey, my uniqueness, my beauty – all gone.
All gone.

Gawwdd-dammmit!

I don’t know what made me think of this, but how ‘bout some Snow Patrol for Our Duncan Funk Song of the Day?

Title: You’re All That I Have
