Didn't sleep last night. The Beatles song "Blackbird" ran incessantly through my head... I had heard it in Greenville, just before coming to Athens. At times I cry. Other times it seems so unreal that I forget. I think about myself alot-- I want someone to recognize the pain and soothe it. I'm a selfish bastard, its true.

All attempt at words end in platitudes. Real human experience is beyond words.
