The Wanderer, Joseph Sigall |
I think we have it here, our twelve
personae, we're on to something beyond a fribbling nogginal ambiance.
All this blogging and thinking, I believe we have figured ourselves
out. We're just plain wanderers. No serendipity involved here,
we've never set a course in our wanderings for anywhere in particular
and you need some sort of zest to happen upon Serendip.
Even our marriage had no purpose, no
aim. It just came about in a stumble upon circumstance, like
tripping over a root in a path through the woods. It's just that we
got all tangled up and the vines grew faster than we could trim them
away and we're still entangled after 35 years in the middle of our
path to nowhere.
We're no flâneur. We wander the
streets with no map and no purpose. No connoisseur of the street
here, no special appreciation for any particular field, especially
the arts. That 1960's bungalow with the faded siding and unmowen
lawn is just the cat's meow.
We surf the internet with no goal in
mind. The lies and misleading discourses are just as fascinating as
the educated and well thought out homilies. What we write in our
blogs takes no thought, we simply type in a bunch of letters which
reciprocate our current ambiance and hit spell check and there's a
perfect post. And reading material, why the local dumpsters are full
of lovely novels which no one wanted at the last garage sale – mind
improvement is much like home improvement for the do-it-yourselfer.
That's also where we find most of our building materials, we remodel
with no goal in mind, just making use of what we find.
Lest we ramble on too long here without
mentioning chaos, that utter state of confusion, we succumb. But
even chaos is sensitive to initial conditions. Our wanderlust has no
beginning and has no end. It is truly the incarnated omnipotent
desire us heathens long for in our search through our forlorn
universe. It therefore exceeds chaos in its magnitude, assuring
total bedlam as the rapturous overtones of our earthly sojourn.
Have a pleasant day, you’all.
