Casually talking with a friend, I asked for a challenge. Some sort of suggestion that would make me overcome this force that is not doing. This constant postponing.


When I asked this of her, I did it with a promise that the result would come to her next day.


“Rimbaud”.

Rimbaud? I thought she had got to be kidding me… (barely did I know what would come next, but let us save that for another time).


Rimbaud.

In a similarity to everything in this world, there are too many opinions. That he was a prodigy. That he is overrated.


In me, Rimbaud, is this:

"je ne parlerai pas je ne penserai rien"

- A. Rimbaud

(This business of "do something with" was born from my inertia. It is a sort of challenge given to me and fulfilled on what is left of the following 24 hours.)
