Centuries. Still pissing away the wellspring! Aware all along but powerless. All for sake of one select collective mental illness or another (of a different tongue). Fcking centuries.
In school in the Corps a hundred years ago I sat beside a sergeant. Jewish. Well-versed in everything. He didn't like me. Me, elevated only marginally above poor white trash as i sat there unconsciously clicking my pen during an exam. But I admired him.
His stories about history, family, education, travels as a young man with his grandfather. The close-knit nature of his entire family tree. The way each son and daughter was raised informed and elegant. Covered and aligned. Eloquent.
It was my first time really seeing such articulately spoken use of language face to face. This was my first mentor. Although even upon graduation he still didn't like me ..for reasons I was never certain. Aw well. So be it. I was a savage then.
