before i overcome inertia.

Like flies drawn to carrion, I have this swarm of irritating issues to deal with which will not leave me alone, augmented by my penchant for procrastination amongst others. They are urgent, I'll give you that, but not important by my own standards. And then there are also other hosts of problems which command my immediate attention, but it's not as if anything can be solved by word-fencing or smile-fixing. But it piles up so high that its very real pressure and weight upon my chest leaves me gasping for breath. Just like sleep paralysis, has that ever happened to you before, I wonder. Or the feeling of withheld exasperation that declines into mute melancholy as the night wears on. The bitter taste of hard-won acceptance that taints all that is spoken from the tongue.

Are we really all that different, or the same, beneath it all? I know not everyone's a slave to chocolate, and that there are weird people out there who actually like eating certain mutated forms of vegetables, a fine example being lady's fingers. But I will like to believe and keep faith that no matter what has been said or done, that there is inherent goodness in everyone, and is that so very wrong? I asked my mum and sis today, do you agree that people will always put themselves before others, and the answer was an emphatic yes, and I am troubled that they will think so, and now I question myself if I am naive, or just so very blind.

I will like to spend my days, as though they are my own, which I mostly end up doing in halves, for duty beckons, and I am answering its clarion call. Soon enough! I am also a veteran procrastinator.
