I like Insects

I think that many time, we like to compare apples to oranges, but we do so with broad sweeping generalizations, with complex maps, with unnessecary information graphics, why must we but then if we can just get a little farther away from words we would realize that each one carries a special weight to it, I had a though today, about waiting for someone for dinner, I saved my the food, so I'd be hungry for you. When you meet that person walking down the street they look interesting, you could both go to a bar, I could over a blueberry lemondrop, and you could order a drink that I never learned to pronounce, that has guava juice, and sugar. We could talk all night about people in leotards, and cavemen. Why waste so many unique moments on useless blabber, connect with someone every day, while we may always have the chance to meet someone again later, what if you don't? what if that was the last time you talked to them? that time on the bus, where you said excuse me, but because you live in the city you never see them again, couldn't you have said instead, I cook, and I don't have a favorite animals, I like insects. We pass a million unique moments a day with complete oblivious ignorance, maybe we should show some respect to the fact that it's over from that point on, what if today was the best day of your entire life, and you didn't appreciate it? So eat the extra cookie, stay up the extra hour, have another drink at the last call, savor the moment everyone. Take joy, but leave a half cup for the next person in line.
