Have you ever...?


Ozymandias

Recommended Posts

Have you ever seen an animal anthropomorhize itself?

 

Have you ever had no (or simply unacceptable) radio in your car, along with no CD player, tape deck or MP3 player, and talked to yourself to entertain yourself instead?

 

Have you ever sung to yourself instead?

 

Have you ever seen a sunrise that was exactly the color of pure gold?

 

Have you ever been so mentally and emotionally bogged down, that you climb into the *shower* and lie down, only to start feeling better minutes later when you realize the wonderfullly obscene noises you can make with the suction your back makes in the pooling water under you?

 

 

Ozymandias readjusts the microphone, looks out at the crowd, and bellows "NEXT!", before walking regally offstage and attacking his coffee cup like castaway on a coconut.

 

(OOC: before you ask, I have several possible plans here. Where this goes, gentle reader, is dependent upon how you react. Have fun!)

Vlad walks up to the microphone after seeing Ozy and Stick perform. Hesitantly he begins...

 

"No. Yes. Yes, yes, no.

"No, no, yes, yes. Yes, yes, no."

 

"Have you ever wondered why you're doing something, only to remeber that you don't need a reason?"

 

"Have you ever cried when you thought you should laugh, or laughed when you though you should cry?"

 

"Have you ever been surrounded by emptyness?"

 

"Have you ever regreted a failure?"

I do remember seeing water gleaming as molten gold in the late morning, two hours after sunrise. . .inlets and bays burning my retinas, fingers of fire lying between dead grey stones worn and creased--if the hand of god ever pressed into clay, it was there. . .

Have you ever watched TV with the sound off, and listened to a record/CD with the sound on, and had the two synchronize? (Dean Martin sang Knights in White Satin PERFECTLY)

 

Have you ever walked home after a long night of drawing dungeons, listening to the "hema-hema" of the grass against your jeans, and had the dawn spill over - and hear the opening chords of a song at the sight?

Flying down the highway at 88 mph, then taking an off-ramp that's almost a perfect 80 degree angle, in the rain, doing two full 360 degree spins, and finally coming to a stop still with the closest end of the car to the guardrail being over five feet from it- and doing it all in a road space that is not only quite curved, but not quite wide enough for two compact cars to sit in side by side. Miraculously, we neither hit *anything* nor had any other cars on the ramp at *all* during our spinout or recovery, nor hurt ourselves at all.
