TPPM _The Gift_: Sentence 2: mortal, blooded humanity

... mortal, blooded humanity.

If myth is transcendent, detached; and death of
the other is only an analogy, empty prediction;

Then I guess evocative phrases, like the recent
"...pushed Wyatt Earp his gun in Clantons baly",
help construct a more vivid phenomenal reality.

Like one day I look in the bathroom and see the
water running, then I look again and it wasn't
really running. Just one bool flipped somewhere,
and a whole mental construct was presented to
consciousness.

Wahl, ya put enouf dusty, evocative phrases on
a story, memory'll be harder to flip around so.

Then it can become confused with a really real.
That's a drag. I prefer Schroedinger's faucet.
But then, maybe there is a way to cheat death.
I'm still working on it.

Yours truly,
Glenn Scheper
