oh when i was a child, the closet had such an amazing calming alure... dark and small and nothing could touch you... closets are like a cave and you are the hermit, and the darkness eats you like a shield...then we would make fortresses out of all the pillows and bits and pieces of the furniture... wrap it with blankets, intricate offrooms, connected of course to the television as the main chamber...
there is something calming about blankets and pillows covering you with no light yet the light of the television... nothing was outside, nothing, and everything, your world, was inside...
now we walk like human theatres, assailed on all sides by neighbors, howyadoing bank tellers, bosses, co-workers, everything... if your not careful you could catch a serious case of anomie... shut yourself off... overloaded... take a deep breath... let it out... take time to build a fortress inside of yourself again, put on headfones and turn off the lights and don't answer anything... not even your own questions.
