The day i became scared of plants.
I’m sitting in the breakfast room in my house just watchin tv at 5am far too lazy move and far too tired not to go to bed. so im trying to think of what i can to do solve my problem. and then suddenly i realise i havent seen the sunrise in a few days so i get my stuff together; mp3 player with air (virgin suicides soundtrack), my camera and a joint. with everything i set out on my merry way and boy was it a doozy. great colours, fresh air and what appeared to be an old lady following me. so there i was sitting on a small wall in my old school, listening to air, watching the sun come up and i realise that this is probably the most productive thing ive done all summer. well this and realising that plants coming to life is probably my biggest fear. im not too sure where it stems from but ive always disliked seaweed and id never swim where there wasnt a clear path without seaweed. then when i went snorkeling in thailand i was more afraid that the coral would eat me than i was interested in seeing the coral up close. actually it wasnt that i was afraid the coral would eat me, it was more that the coral would turn into something else and that would eat me. so while everyone else was enjoying themselves snorkelling, i was up on the boat having a good old chat with the crazy guy who ran the boat and led us around all day, but thats another story. so sitting on the wall i start to pick at the grass as people do and i remembered this idea of plants coming to life and i start to get just a little bit paranoid that all the grass, bushes and flowers are suddenly going to charge at me and ill have nothing to do but sit there as they slowly rip out all my hairs one at a time as i had done with the grass. and then when theyre done with my hair theyll start to dig into my flesh as your kids do as they play in the mud. im sitting there and in my mind the plants are actually doing this, ripping off my flesh, tearing it roughly like an orange peel and im terrified, not moving for fear of being eaten slowly by a million blades of grass
