Shit happens…and there it is. It needs no motivation, an effect without cause. At the worst possible time it happens; “ready or not.” At the best maybe you keep it an arm’s length away. And it goes down too, yes it does. Shit goes down whether you like it or not.
Did you see it coming? Maybe so, maybe no; either way. And suddenly there you are right in the middle of it, shit all around you. You look about but you’re in it deep… too deep to wipe it off, to scrape it away, too deep for a change of scenery.
All things are temporary, they say. But when you’re in it deep the only change you see is in the passage of time; it slows to a crawl. Seconds seem like minutes, minutes like hours, hours like days, and days like weeks. Not temporary enough. Shit happens; if you understand, things are as they are. If you don’t understand, things are as they are.
