futurebird's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- koyaanisqatsi There�s a bum who hangs out on Craig street. And old man who wears a sombrero and holds a pair of maracas. When I passed him today I gave him some quarters. I�m certain, you see, there'll be a day when I�m standing there like that. I�m not very disciplined. I�ll make a mistake sooner or later. That�s why always give change to bums. It�s a kind of savings bank for me. At any rate, I was going to get my food at the restaurant and I came up $0.30 short. If I hadn�t given change to that guy . . . ! So I had to ask the guy to take my birch-beer off of the bill. Everyone was looking at me like I was a criminal. Oh, well. I probably am a criminal compared to them. I live closer to the earth, I think, than most people. On my way out I saw a sign for a lecture it was called �life in balance� I remember the Hopi work something like koyaanisqatsi? for �life out of balance� and I smiled a little. I don�t need a gourmet soda anyway. 16:56:09 - 2000-11-18 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
