In Decision
There are fundamental standards that keep the world spinning, that allow for movement forward.
Excelsior.
A basic separation will allow for the desired freedom and growth, not clinging to history and habit.
Life is as simple as we'd like it to be. It is we who complicate our own worlds unnecessarily, especially when we know the solution. It need not be as horrible as we might think, the solution.
Worry is for naught.
A simple breath and a step forward, "as if I would ever want to stop trucking." I'm handing you the keys.
Life isn't fair, yes, but there's no reason to make it any less fair to fare. Through no fault of my own, I feel thrown into competition with history and habit--not mine and not fair.
I've been called relentless. I say steady, focused, determined--and jovial.
I take another breath and step forward.

Snakes On My Fist In Your Face
I swear on forever, if I hear one more thing about Snakes On A Plane, I'm either gonna have to choke a kitten or die of three simultaneous heart attacks.

Re-cognition
I lost my train of thought
Under a cascade of blue light
I fought away the shivers
On a temperate summer night
I drowned in liquid velvet
Under a cascade of blue light
I found myself at home
On a temperate summer night

"Science, again!"
From The Times (UK):
Growing skin tissue around metal enables artificial limbs to be joined to the bone, making them stronger and more useful.
The concept of growing skin tissue around metal, a staple of science fiction films such as The Terminator, has been realised for the first time by a team of British scientists.
The breakthrough, which was reached after a detailed study of the way skin seals around deers' antlers, paves the way for significant advances in the technology of artificial limbs, including the use of bionic limbs controlled robotically by nerve impulses.
Now, if they could just make it so I'd make that sound effect every time I jumped or ran or brushed my teeth....
