Spider Web



Life doesn’t happen straight. Life doesn’t happen in a line. Haven’t you noticed you go back to the same shit? You end up in the same relationship, you have the same problems. You run into people from your past at the grocery store. You innocently revisit your old addictions, and the people at rehab start to expect you back in a couple of months. You hit the same walls. You have the same nightmares. You repeat the past. You dream of the future. You reach the future every sixty seconds, every single day, and you never get excited for it. You get depressed every winter. You always go back to the same old brand of shampoo.
Life isn’t a line. Life is more like a spider web. Repeats, rewinds, fast forwards, loops, pauses, full on stops. Plot holes. Traps. Roundabouts. Dead ends.
Life would be like a roller coaster, except you never really get to feel the relief of getting off.
