Wednesday, February 21st, 2007I went out to eat tonight and when I stepped outside, suddenly I was alive. The night, the fog, the weather. I became connected to it all again. It was an electric shock through my entire body as intensity flooded over me.
As soon as I felt it, lightning struck and I knew I had to get out and drive. I was completely wired, driving through the rain with my window down and the wind blowing.
The lights from the city reflecting in the sky casting pink hues on the horizon. The brief illumination from the lightning brightening the landscape.
It was a rush, but as soon as it started our small storm ended. I came back to my apartment to drop off a friend and hit the road solo. I noticed that while it was foggy the skies were pretty clear and you could see some stars so i went out to the country and pulled off.
Just as soon as I did my hyperactivity wore off and I suddenly became calm.
On one side you could barely see Owensboro, on the other it looked like a marsh with the collection of water and fog. you could see the stars perfectly.. so I laid back on my trunk and just sat there taking everything in. The air was crisp but not too cold as fog started to blanket the entire area. Before I knew it I couldn’t make out any light at all, I could just see the fog.. visibility was nil as it covered me and only a small patch of stars was now visible.
I was hesitant to move because I didn’t want to disturb the silence, the sounds from the city were non-existent and you could only hear the wind.
Soon, even my glasses were fogging up, I took them off and it was even more incredible..
