Sophisticated - God, I'm sophisticated.

So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.

What’ll we do with ourselves this afternoon? Cried Daisy, and the day after that, and the next thirty years?

I wanted to get out and walk eastward toward the park through the soft twilight, but each time I tried to go I became entangled in some wild, strident argument which pulled me back, as if with ropes, into my chair. Yet high over the city our line of yellow windows must have contributed their share of human secrecy to the casual watcher in the darkening streets, and I was him too, looking up and wondering. I was within and without, simultaneously enchanted and repelled by the inexhaustible variety of life.

I KNOW. I've been everywhere and seen everything and done everything…Sophisticated - God, I'm sophisticated.

Kako ste djetinjasti...

by Luba Roniss

              Kada dosadna kiša pada cijelu noć, cijelo jutro, cijeli dan, i ima tendenciju da nastavi da pada do daljnjeg, ljudi teže da počnu da se ponašaju čudno. U ovom slučaju, nije u pitanju nije bilo kakva kiša, već ona sitna, najdosadnija, za koju vam se svaki čas čini da prestaje ili da možete da pretrčite preko ulice do prodavnice, a u stvari, za to vrijeme, u potpunosti pokisnete i pokvarite i taj mali pokušaj  look-a koji ste teškom mukom stvorite u 7:15 istog jutra. Dakle, čitav dan morate da hodate sa kišobranom najglupljeg dezena kome svaki čas ispada po neka žica i koji uredno zaboravljate na svakom ćošku. Cipele su vam prokisnule, ili, ukoliko ste promoćurno izabrali neke robusnije, previše ste se okuražili i približili ivičnjaku, te vas je neko, ko negdje neopisivno žuri automobilom, u potpunosti isprskao. Samim prisustvom ovih ekstremnih kišnih uslova, već oko 1-2h,  svaki normalan pojedinac ulazi u fazu neobjašnjivog smijeha, sklapanja očiju i sindroma duplo sporijeg protoka vremena. Tačnije, u fazu infantilnosti.

Naravno, pošto u takvim uslovima nije ni moguće smisliti nešto koliko-toliko koherentno, da bi popunili prostor između priloga, izvolite jednu staru pjesmicu ( u kojoj se, srećom, radi o kiši, te ipak nije totalno random).

"Zdravo , zdravo, luda glavo!"
Veli gusak njoj.
"Što se mučiš, Što ne skočiš,
pod kišobran moj?"

Veli patka:"Dušo slatka,
nije loša stvar..
Kad ne lovim i ne plovim
Neka kisnem bar"
