*NOTE: I wrote this last night and today the Boston Marathon was bombed. I am not surprised people would do such a thing because I see people do bad things all the time in my work. I am sure many would feel like the singers watching the TV as they suffer inside at the scenes in front of them. I had no idea how apt it would feel when I wrote this last night. I do not edit it so it will stand as it was.
Have you ever had a week where you just feel bled?
I've had a few such weeks recently, as we all have, but these last few just about take the cake. Much like the video above, I feel as if I've been slowly bled. Pristine white turned to crimson as the time goes effortlessly, and yet, the blood flows smooth and quick without notice.
I am looking around at my stained clothes as week-three looms. Wounded by a thousand paper cuts. I may have overestimated the shelf-life of specializing in messes.
I love the video because they watch the depressing news on a TV (just sitting there) and just start bleeding. I've always thought it was a clever performance and idea.
