thus far untitiled - a conversation with inspiration

By LizzyQ July 1, 2010 | 77 Views

[Scene] It's summer but not hot. Weary, and tired... a traveler stops to have a conversation with inspiration, who's a bit annoyed with her for ignoring him.

He appears by her side, and takes her hand.

Looking down she closes her eyes. She thinks of music, flowers, and rockin' roll.

She opens her eyes to find herself not in the desert, as she expected...
but in the forest she knows and loves.

The old music of the trees calls to her.

He walks ahead on the trail, and starts humming...

"Run into the night...

Wild Child...

Let your ideas take flight...

Feel the pulsing of life surrounding you... and...

Fuck. Kick those narrow right-minded ass-hole fascists
right out of your head."

Jim! Wait up...

"Don't be DEAD... (unless your just grateful...)

Liz, if you were going to fuck up your life... you could have done worse-
than accidentally becoming a lawyer - you know."

Really...?

"Yeah. You could have been a rock star." He throws back his head and laughs.

So YOU say.

Hmmm...

I JUST DIDN'T WANT TO GET PUSHED AROUND ANYMORE - SHIT.

But then I found... that I had over-shot my objective.

"So what?"

She ignores him...

And now, I'm being tested.
Somehow along the way... Jim...

I forgot how to RUN.

She looks up, and they are at the summit. Her blue eyes squint as she takes in the vastness of the mountain range before her. The matters of her life fade as she breathes in the pure clean air. She feels awe, as she absorbs the vast landscape before her...

He looks at her with a smirk, and challenge lies in his shrug.

"Then child - just be, and run free."

She nods, looking to brilliant blue sky before her. She turns, to face the road ahead, longer than she can fathom...

She smirks, and starts to walk.
