"Follow the rant if you've the time...


Without the use of absent life we will find no purpose in it at all. The high pinging of the keyboard makes me cringe with delight as I see words compile to make sentences. Then there are the individuals who know no greater, and they will know never know any greater. Then there is me, stuck in the middle with you, but who are you? Do I even know your name? There are the posers in the middle, and they are the most confused of everyone. They want to be real but I can prove that they are not.

I wish I had a volleyball tournament in my front yard, I could have everyone over to enjoy the hot sand betwixt my toes, those hard, worn toes of life. Life is like a foot. I am too. I am a little foot in the sand of life. Those who have no sand will not know life. A lot of people do not like sand, but then again, a lot of people do not like life. When they think of sand, they think of that scratchy feeling when it gets down their shorts and they have to somehow shake it out. That's what they think of life, an itchy feeling in their shorts. They can't seem to quite get that itchy feeling of life out, they can't enjoy the beauty of it. Then again, I don't have life all caught up in my shorts? Maybe there is more to it. Maybe people have tried to dive far too deep into life and so now they choke on it and blame it on somebody else, saying that somebody else put sand down their shorts. Don't complain because your pain is self inflicted.

I don't know about water though, maybe that is the devil? Sand is the opposite of water, so what is the opposite of Life? Death? Why did I just capitalize death just then? If death is a person, then so must be life. Or should I say Life? Who is Life? Death is a skeleton who walks around sporting a dark cloak and carrying a large scythe, so is Life a fat woman who doesn't believe in clothing? I bet she is. But if we saw a fat woman running around naked, we would be afraid of her, would we not? So in turn we are all afraid of Life and therefore life is rather depressing. Life must be misunderstood then, how can we be afraid of the only thing of which we are certain? No, Life, this beautiful fat woman, must be the greatest thing ever. But as sure as I say this, if it is ever read, then women who fit the description will surely run around with pride and without clothing knowing that they are life to its fullest. But then again, if they spend their time doing that, then they probably won't have a job and therefore will not be able to feed themselves and they'd also get a lot of exercise, therefore becoming thing and no representing the mold of Life. So part of the meaning of life is to have a job so that we may keep ourselves plump.

But what about men? We are not women, obviously, but we are also in the pursuit of life, are we not? In the womb, we all start out as women and then some go on to develop and become men, that is why men have nipples. So in this aspect, men were at once women, but had developed further to become men, who now represent Death. Or is Death without gender? In fables, stories, movies, and cartoons, I've always gotten the impression that Death was a male. It is possible though that writers (humans) could have gotten it wrong. After all, humans are fallible. But what of Death? Was it human at one point? Who were its mother and father? or Creator for that matter? If it did have a mother and father, do you think they would be disappointed? I think they would. Sending my child to kindergarten knowing that he was an ultimate evil would be pretty hard to do. Then again, it is also fabled that whomever Death touched would die instantly, so who could his mother be? He would have killed her as soon as he left the womb, if not while in it. And what kind of father can produce Death sperm? Was all of his sperm capable of producing such a child, or was it just one that was a really good swimmer because it had a cause? The only woman that could possible hold such a thing in them is Life. Life would probably have the greatest tolerance and ability to hold such a child. So if anybody ever asks you: which came first, Life or Death? You can confidently say, Life came first, it's the only rational possibility.

This topic is best understood on a sandy beach though, on a cloudy day, you can really see the water for the evil it is. That's probably why Jesus walked on it, it was too evil to sink into. But then why so they christen babies with water? And what is it that makes water holy? All they do is boil it. So purified water is holy? But that just makes it stagnant, we already know that it's the sand that makes life. Maybe holy water is a test of endurance? Yeah, thats it. Holy water is splashed on people to see if they can handle it, it's like a right of passage. That's probably why showers are so refreshing. You step out of the shower feeling like new because you have to wipe the evil away. And how come our body is 90% water? Doesn't that kinda make you think? I have this premonition that Life is always dehydrated, therefore she's a big alcohol drinker, because that has been known to dehydrate. THEREFORE if she's a big drinker, she probably drank during her pregnancy which rendered Death a weaker being. And that is why Good will always triumph over Evil."
