You Ever Save Somebody's Life?

Christmastime is so pregnant with mortality. I find myself looking back, turning pages,

visiting the past. And forwards from there, tracing lines that illuminate the present

circumstance. Do you? And do you weary from the exercise?

There's one life I might have saved. But it's not like I leapt into the frozen river or

anything. Just a person. Near their line. Maybe pulled back. Maybe definitively. I'll

never know. My life's sure been saved a few times. I see their faces on the insides of my

eyelids, before I fall asleep. I weep. I fall asleep.

How shall i speak to you? You show interest in so many forms of speech. I blush. I am in

love. You fall asleep.

It suits me to feminize you. Strength could only be feminine. But dispassion? There, your humanity reveals a seam, a pretense is exposed, and -- evermore -- you are like a dream.

judging by your posts on here lately,

i think it's safe to assume

2HP has discovered ecstasy (the drug)

It flashed up in a great big ball of fire and burned away.

A few times I have "saved" my step-father....hard core epileptic.....

when I was 5 or 6 (he was 40 something) he had a grand maul seizure and beefcaked his front teeth on a ball hitch of a boat trailer......we had to go look for his teeth the next day....I hauled his ass home and took care of him......not a whole lot you can do......make him lie down and swallow his pills....hard to do when they are flopping and rolling their eyes back into their head....half the time combative in an unaware state....then when finally subdued....sleep for 2 days....
that happened on a multiple occasions....

yeah, saved a baby's life. Just a few weeks old. It had trouble breathing, like it was choking. The mother sent her b/f to my house to get me as she knew I was the eldest of 12, and figured I would know what to do.

As appalling as our blood donation rate is, I'd say that qualifies --

Hipp · 12-24-2005, 08:00 PM

I did, once. Not a hero, just doing my job. Pulled a man out of the water after his boat sank. I was in the Coast Guard.

Is that like a banishment?

As in banished from Paradise?

Or more like banished from "Heaven"?

I wonder how that turned out?

Or, am I mixing metaphors?
