Twins: the metaphor for how it really is.

I was sitting towards the back of the bus this morning. It made a stop at Gustav Fischer Str and two twin boys about 4 years old take the seats on either side of their mother. I spent about five minutes just staring at them while bobbing my head to the music coming in through my headphones. Three minutes in one of the twins is staring back at me imitating my head movement. Our eyes meet. It was strange. I knew he had no idea what he was doing or imitating. Quickly I looked away, as would I have done with a peer after being caught staring. It was then that I realized what these two small kids were, to me anyway.

In my twisted thoughts they started me thinking about some long and linked chain. A chain of people. A chain of organisms. These two small boys linked by their mother to everything and everyone around them. My eyes and thoughts started to wander around the bus mingling with the other passengers. I was recognizing connections all over the place. the mothers body language to the kids and the kids' to the older couple sitting adjacent. There was also this seemingly disgruntled woman of about 27 who looked like she wanted nothing to do with these kids. It could have been their hygiene as I could definitely smell some kid stink being wafted about.

It was at that moment that everyone turned into a tribe of monkeys or apes. all their sideways glances and shifting about to get to the most opportune spot without having to interact or create conflict with the others. It was animal behavior. I was at peace. We are no better and we are no worse than those friends we keep in the wilderness, our bestial counterparts.

I would whistle in octaves

I'm gonna find you, love.

Fugazi - Repeater

This song is too damn good.

Primer

I just finished watching this film. It was made on a 7,000 dollar budget and is just over an hour long. Just long enough to really twist your brain in a knot.
