9:14 PM >> Remote Control

This this this. Here again. Again. Watching and writing the words and actions of others. Taking them in. Pausing them. Observing their mid-sentenced motionless expressions. Then starting them back up. Revving them up. Rewinding them when I can't make out the jumble. Fast forwarding when I am bored. Taking particular note when I am touched by something. Getting excited about their ticks. The little things that people do when they are taking that you miss when you don't have a remote control --

What great power is that. And two others that I forgot to
mention --

The power to EJECT.
And just plain POWER. On or off.
