Dolorosa
it was a pleasant surprise, audie was home, after a long absence. he, busy with making ends meet, i, busy with trying to live up to the title. we blurted in unison, “let us (the five of us) meet!" so we tacked 29th on our calendars, as our meeting date. i sent out sms’s to matt, ritz, john, & audie (to make it official). 7pm. another surprise! matt was actually going to attend the meeting. zealousness? nah! maybe. . . coincidence? yeah!
matt, john, bidibidi, ritzie, audie
we dreamed, planned, dreamed again, planned again. . . and out of our dreamy state, a sudden, violent shock! john lost sight and with it the purpose. it was hurtful! shameful! and utterly disappointing. imagine succumbing to the temporary and the basic! we have graduated from the low rungs of the hierarchy of needs! or so i thought!
it took us ten minutes of threatening silence, to absorb the shock. then. . . i have to ask the question: do we push through and pursue our dream?
again in unison, we, now only four, blurted out: "of course! nothing can stop us now!"
so the four, now armed with stronger conviction, determination, is on the way to the fulfillment of a
D R E A M!
job is a welcome member. it will not be the same, but just like always, the four (quorum) is now more focused, more determined, more dreamy?
bye, bye, john! good luck! good cheer! good riddance? (only the future can tell.)
