>I wrote this on my laptop when I had a nasty cold and touble
sleeping. It was three AM, and I had just heard a song by Telepop Music
called 'Breath', and the song wouldn't go out of my head. Finally, after
writing this ficlet down, I felt much better, and fell asleep in a few seconds.
If you don't get it, that's OK, because neither do I!<



=====================
I'm used to live
At night
Just breath
Just believe
Another Day
Just believe
Another day
It's hard
To believe
Another day

    ANOTHER DAY
                      by Roxanne de Winter

     The little green men spin around on their little disks as frisbees
fly around like UFOs in the blue beach sky.
Another day.
I believe there'll always be another day.
The palm trees sway in the tropical breeze, and the men on the disks
spin faster, their triangle hats looking like cones from the rapid
motion of their disks.
Another day.
The UFOs land on the white sand and the tall palms sway rhythemitically
in the warm beach air.
I lay nude on the sand watching the scene.
I put a flower wreth in my hair and stand up, letting the wind blow
through my reddish-brown locks.
I run into the ocean, which is actually a sea of mist.... an illusion.
I breath in the warm air.
The UFOs in the sky fly idly by, and I feel intoxicated by he spell of
the mist.
It's a blue-ish violet mist that gets blown away to another place each
to form another imaginary body of water.
As the mist moves away, I am left with tiny droplets of moisture on my
skin.
I shiver as a snowflake falls on this pristine beach, melting in the
white sand.
A cloud becomes a dragon....
Another day.
I just breath and it disappears into the air from which it arose.
Just breath, and your life will be a lot easier.
I walk by people with breathing masks and white suites, facing all
kinds of dragons.
Why don't they just breath?
I walk by some rotting corpses.
It's too late for these souls.
The corpses are all in differant positions.... their stick-like bodies
make little works of art. Art that portrays human loss, human love,
human saddness....
They teach lessons for others not to be like them. Each corpse tells a
story.
Another day.
There'll always be another day.
Prestigious rainbows can be seen overhead, growing over wilted black
flowers.
I see some people sitting in the flowers, slowly getting their life
sucked out of their bodies, and other people floating in the rainbow.
They're mad and energetic, and from time to time one kills him or
herself.
What they don't know at the moment they take away their lives is that
ther're giving away tomorrow.
As long as you're alive, there'll always be another day.
I know it's hard to believe.
Far off I see a palace. A palace in which there is all I desire.
But whenever I get near, the palace vanishes.
You can never get anything you want so easily, I guess that is what
this means. Though I'll work on getting everything I want another day.
I'm used to live at night.
There was a time I worked all night in a virtual mine, never seeing
sunlight.
I was enslaved in my quest for too much....
But when I decided to just breath, I took in rays of the morning sun
and felt a new day for me had begun.
And there'll always be another day.
