Blister

How long will it take me to walk across the United States all alone?

When the world caves in whatcha gonna do?

and how long would it take you to forget me? what about all of the pictures, where do they get filed?

How many times can the same idea be conveyed with words rearranged, thesaurus consulted, lick stamp stick send, repeat?

Live in the present? instant gratification?

Where does everything we learn go? What shelves do memories and words dwell on? does dewey have enough decimals for all of the times passed?

Books are a poor substitute for the human touch; can't we all have both?
