Who wants to speak this morning? ' I do I do'......... Says Cadbury................ as he laughs......... thank God for laughter the saving grace........ in retrospect........
What shall we talk about? 'Well I don't know?' originally I was thinking about speaking up about discrimination, Have you ever experienced it?
'Not much, but I think I got a dose the other day and to tell your the truth I did not really care for it , not in the slightest really'
What was it over? 'Oh feeling I was discriminated against because I was a big fat old gringo in a third world country trying to get some mother fucking blood pressure pills that have in essence already been pre paid for in full............I don't think I really want to elaborate at this time' I might be found guilty of something and incarcerated for libel.......... or something equally as strange in paradise.
'Oh ok.'
'So what were you dreaming about then?'
' Well I was back on Big Pine and sleeping in a lovely big green dumpster.. it was an experiment you see? The idea was to sprinkle a powdering of yeast in the filthy empty dumpster bin and sleep in there with cuts on your body and , well you know see what pops up in the course of things, you know a surprise of sorts................ of course then the rats came and jumped in the bin on top of the cardboard that you were so comfortable under rudely awakening you..... I had left my old Burgundy work truck parked up on the Bike Path your see? ... the next day I was walking without a care in the morning sunshine,
towards the truck , I was surprised to see there was not a ticket for illegal parking on the wind screen , I ran into my friend Kelly walking the other direction from the light , anyway she wanted to borrow the truck to go do something or another important.. to her.... not me mind you.... but important to her, well I was hesitant to lend her the truck because it had really bad brakes I had driven it for years and years like that and never had an accident but you always had to look way ahead and of course pray or hope no one pulled out directly in front of you the steering was superb , Plus it was empty of gasoline... so I offered to drive her but I had a broken key and was trying to make my way up to the hardware store on foot.. to try and have one made out of the pieces...... and wondering if she had $2.00 for gas.... it was like a fancy meeting you here kind of arrangement....' Both Vagabonding as it were........ with our various needs and desires.....in tow.
So anyway back to this having been discriminated against scenario.... ' Yes it reminded me of a saying a friend of mine who had grown up in the Appalachians would say from time to time in regard to people or persons or behavior that he was much less then fond of... , or a shitty person or a shitty deal......
' Oh what was that?'
It was like so and so.........." AIN'T SHOWED ME NOTHING" about a person, place or thing..... you know the action words..............
Of course one could say...... 'Says Who?'
Yes, I see what you are saying...........
"Ain't Showed Me Nothing".....................
