There are those in the world who live to work. They love their jobs and it's a joy to get up in the morning and strive and ache and accomplish. These are the people we're meant to admire. To emulate, to get close to or aspire towards. I can tell you that I've never admired them. I can tell you that the closest I've ever gotten to them is when they step over me and my puddle which I've claimed for a bed. For there are those. There are them that. There is me that only. Works to live. Because life is for me what happens in the moments, and the glimpses, and the tarnished coppers. Money that changes hands is only worth it's journey. It's stories, like the inscriptions on books.
