The wake of morn’ splashed into my coffee. The cigarette hung limp from the crease of my left fingers. In this spec of time, this moment within a moment my epiphany began to form. To learn you are a failure is to joy, is as blood loss is to life. No significance, just correlation. Maybe as you are young you will grow, but when the grow ceases to proceed you must sit. Sit on a comforting sofa with an aged football helmet and pillows adhered to your kneecaps with masking tape. The whole globe will be searching for an excuse in your very own mind. Those who do not know best will know what to do. Those who reach out and trace the line in your right palm will just as soon snap your left-placed sanity in half. "Better", such a word without solution chaces stereotypical definitions just to act as a sword through an abdomen. Charlie Chaplin might have said it best "Despair is a narcotic. It lulls the mind into indifference." It is here where the X marks the spot and the gully spreads apart to
let your pathetic apathetic waters rush in, mix with the barren dirt, and wash up on someone else’s beach. Alas, if you thought there was a point to ranting on and on about your distinct liberator and its ability to sprout wings and take you far, far away the mark was simply sinned upon. But, as Fidel Castro so amply put it "A revolution is not a bed of roses."
Are you at all interested by this character? I just need feedback on my writing. We had a week to do this, and I just started an hour ago. It's due tomorrow.

Oh, procrastination...
This is just the "prologue". I'll start it at the "beginning" now making it a little bit more normal.
