Pleasures of Miscellany

Drown. Let the vibrations from your headphones pound against your head just enough to where you feel yourself float. Drown the thoughts, the feelings, the very essence you are. Let the pounding and the vibrations take you away, let them free your body from your own self. Don't be anyone for a while, whether you're a good person or a bad person, don't be that person. Just be there. Listen to the music and wait as the words and beat all blend together as if you're floating along a marbled river. The body you belong to is weightless, hollow, vacant. Vacant from those never ending, lingering thoughts, vacant from you. Let yourself be so. Because once you wake, you have to return to your body which you wanted to leave in the first place.
