I bought a little cottage on a mountain,
Miles away from any known town, when
I finally left the electronic shackles of
The modern workplace.
I took this very moment, in deep Winter,
To write to some friends, in a moment
Of Uncharacteristic melancholia, uncharacteristic
Because we were hardly ever in contact
Over the decades. I felt as though
I were writing to imaginary people I had
Created in my mind. I think it was the rememberance
Of youth that brought me back here, back
To this mindstate, the eternal longing to return
To naivity, the living in the now that we
Somehow lost over the years.
Back then the now wasn't visible,
But now we read books to learn how to get back there...
