Common Ground
Jump up mother luck,
I could use you today.
Rent's due, nothing new,
heats on, no relief.
I'm an angel on trial in hell,
the Marlboro Man my confidant,
Jack Daniels my attorney.
Jury's out, verdict's unclear
Pray for me.
I'm reading Brian Eno's diary, which is just a day by day journal of one year in his life. In it somewhere he lists his idea of some of the things he is, in the form of I am... and then each of the things he considers himself to be are either a or an. So "I am creative" wouldn't work, but "I am a music producer" would. I quickly closed the book before I read his list and began writing my own, which I may or may not share here. But I wanted you guys to think about creating your own list and think about sharing it here. Maybe I'm an optimist to think you might be interested in doing so, but really it might be fun. There might even be some overlap! And don't worry, it seems only two other people would be reading your list.
Love it!
