lost watermelon. reward.

i don’t know how i did it, but i don’t remember eating it.  i bought it at the grocery store this morning after nola--yes, i actually went to the grocery, first time in months.  granted, it was chunks, not the whole big thing, but shouldn’t they be here somewhere?

you asked me about my concerns.  i am concerned about my cognitive functions: my inability to read more than a page or two, to arrive on time for that for which i heretofore was always prompt. forgetting to bathe.

my inability to locate my watermelon.

I added some sugar, then made it into a bridge, and a shack, and a river.

is there some meaning to your missing watermelon?  i was just riffin halfway through brautigan’s book In Watermelon Sugar.  forgive me.

well, i thought there was, yes.  but then i find meaning in brautigan, too, or did 40 years ago, at any rate--perhaps he’s just considered non-specifically “cool” these days, i wouldn’t know.

currently the meaning of my post would be that i am genuinely concerned about my cognitive functions, and the missing watermelon--which i never did find, by the way--as a symptom of same.
