hey everybody... like i said, i'm in the midst of midterms and all this crazy stuff going on. i'm going to be at the university of washington (otherwise known as u dub for obvious reasons) for an away game this weekend, so i wanted to leave you guys with the last three installments of abstractia 1.

this first one was written during a fatalistic phase of mine. it's what i end ot think of a lot when silence gets the better of me. it usually does. and when it does, i scare a lot of people with my morbid death talks and my dark wonderings about "if i had died". coping with this, here's the product.

death

life ends so abruptly, as is often the case
it’s glamorized by the sex and the drugs and the parties
until we end up on our own death beds
cursing and regretting every bit we did and haven’t done.
some people are not so lucky.
“untimely” and “accident” do not make up the person’s life
though it may be the only thing remembered.
some people do it themselves
because they feel that they can do it
and not realize their profound impact on people around them.
some accept it so.
some cannot and cling to all that is materialistic and earthbound.
some believe in souls and heaven
some know they’re going straight to hell.

the only thing i know for sure
is that i will die
i don’t know how, i don’t know when, i don’t know why
i don’t want to know
but it is for certain
i will die.
that is the only thing i know.
