With this Knife of Dreams, I thee slay

To all those Shakespeaking folks - correct me if I am wrong with that title, but hey - that's the best that I can come up with at a moment's notice. Really stoked about this book, if you can't tell.

So I have finished my quest against the "God of War" - what a fucking epic of a game! I mean ... damn! To those who have completed it and also enjoyed the rapture which I now feel, I salute you. That was a fucking kickass experience and a half! Only problem is now is that everything else feels a bit blank. Last time this happened was with Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath, but then that was something else - Gotta say I'm fucking lucky - to have come across two unbelieveable game experiences in the space of a few months - with another one due in a couple of weeks' time. Damn good year for gaming - that's all I have to say on the matter.

We love our lies. My sibling(s) lie on a regular basis. To throw off the lowest class of people that would seek to follow their footsteps like shadows encrusted with bits of shit. I lie to hide my true actions/thoughts/motives. You lie when you need to hide or to step ahead of where you would be otherwise. What is the truth, but an un-lie? And what is a lie, but an un-truth? It feels more profound than it sounds - like I've stumbled upon something - a rock that could be a diamond or more, but I have to dig just a bit deeper to find something yet finer still. But for now, the idea is just a rock. A brown rock. With black specks - a fine black coat covering it - sticking to my fingers. It tastes of ash and dirt. Makes me cough. Choke too.

Solitude is prettier at night than it is during the day. When the sun is out, it is something dirty. Tiresome and vile. At night, it is bittersweet. Painful like a million needles pricking the skin - a million beads of blood slowly oozing out. But it's a beautiful pain. Or it can be, if the needles don't dig in any deeper. Sometimes they do, don't they?

To the post preceeding the one that succeeds the one that succeeds this. Success for all!
