I say what you wanna be, she said "alive"

Towards the skyline-lit black, I slithered circles around the pond silently listening to Joy Division. Running, biking, living, and dying in the same few square miles makes you feel both permanence and evanescence. I can remember all of the feelings felt at each point on the pond's permemiter, and at the same time know that millions have felt these same feelings before me and these same places, and millions will continue existing in their own peculiar ways for generations after I've left this place. Sometimes you get the feeling that nothing is worth writing, because every significant experience worth describing is already played out, and any attempt will end up a trite ball of nothingness. But maybe the cliché will always be powerful, because the essential parts of our being are necessarily cliché by virtue of being universal.
