Trials

Brush script and Internet lag offend my sense of what should be.
Everything that happens on a computer should happen in one of
two ways. . . "eventually" or "right now." There shouldn't be
more than a couple of speeds to anything.

Sitting in a bar on a breezy night of quiet rain I wonder if the
bartender ever lets her mind move at a different speed. She's
always cool and flip and smooth as the ice cubes she slips
into the glass. She fills the conversational void as steadily
as she fills the glasses and never shifts a gear.

Donuts on the train are against the law and all the sweeter for
the violation. They should be savored slowly but you have to
bolt them down. Just try and take my Bavarian Creme from me
copper

Where the devil did the rain come from and where did the wind go?
A little breeze would cool things down enough to make the rain
pleasant. Summer rain is always better when it's got a little
push behind it. Yeah, I like fast rain.

Cooking fires in the sand at the beach pop and sparkle then settle
down to a shimmer. Fast they go then slow. So many things
have just two speeds.

Even your needs.
