friday saw my last night of the hordes of stampede crazed freaks and beasts~my placement being inside the belly of the creature line-my first night since the start of the debauchery of western mythologising...the 'greatest outdoor show on earth' indeed....
nonetheless, it was a night of washing away the evils-perhaps-while being ever vigilant to the excesses of a hungry beast seeking to spill blood even as it gorged upon it.
it didn't take long-the presence felt and the evidence clear...from the wall to the concrete walkway...smears and stains...blood cells long since dead...life made profane by its assimilation with the dust and soil and vomit... as if the values were equitable...
here i struggled to remove the relics of a life likely survived...odd that the juices seem to take on a life of their own even as its host and those who cause the shedding are indifferent to the spilling....blood stubborn, seeks ways to stay here upon the earth from which it came... the fear of death ever present even in that which gives us life-we need to learn yet, when to let go...clearly this life source has to as well. perhaps if it had some precedence from its source..perhaps indeed, but we have long shown ourselves to be poor role models as we blaze a trail of mayhem and malevolence over everything we come across.
the first platform showed the signs of the demons...the second had a certain chill to it; expected of course due to the apparent existence of a ghost their...the flow of unusual atmospheres here were clearly undiminished...eerie as per normal-night seem just that much darker here.
the third-my strange portal to odd sensations and awarenesses-was strangely subdued even as the feeling of someone else being there was very strong; the escalator's being broken down enhanced that sensation since i could not assume the noises from originating there(even with it working i'd long dismissed that as a source, though i would refer to it at times for comfort)...
the night coming to an end...and with it the last of my direct experiences with the human horde and its zeal for the party of the year. i love pleasures and parties too....just not when they trade life and limb of non-humans for puke and piss...
