Free Flow

Keeping an otherwise boring life dramatic is extremely taxing on my creativity center. It is not that life has gotten dull for me, but that I feel I am a little drained.  I think I found the perfect cure for my condition--a little free flow writing.  I learned this technique in high school and it works wonders for a slow mind. Basically a topic is chosen and without hesitation, no stopping whatsoever, I have to write continuously for ten minutes or so.  It may be erratic, it may not make sense, it may not flow, BUT it is the perfect window into what is going on through my mind.

Without further ado, the topic of bushes...

Bushes. I always wondered if there was a dispute in the plant world between all the different shrub like plants.  Do bushes mock grass?  Grass is so short and small, yet bushes are much bigger.  Grass cannot grow on top of a bush, yet a bush can grow on top of grass.  Is this like a big "fuck you" to all the grasses of the worlds. At night, when everyone is asleep, do bushes uproot themselves and just walk all over grass?  Does morning dew not have a scientific explanation at all, it could just be the result of bushes leaving their spots, peeing all over grass, and going back to home before humans wake up.  What if when grass dies it is actually from the hands, or should I say leaves, of the bushes.  Like some bush mafia lives in the deep woods, far away from human contact, and keeps an eye on grass.  God forbid grass does not buy fertilizer insurance or geese protection from bushes--they would be in for a world of hurt.

I feel like bushes and trees do not get along either.  Yea bushes tower over grass, but what about trees?  They do not stand a chance in hell.  Trees have more leaves, thicker trunks, and longer branches. Trees are to bushes as bushes are to grass.  I feel like trees have manipulated us humans into finding them more aesthetically pleasing than bushes.  Bushes try to be trees but lack any skills.  Have you ever seen a bush provide shade for a person, no.  Was the apple that fell upon Newton's head from a bush....NO. Yea they provide us blueberries and whatnot, but no blueberry is gonna help people understand the laws of gravity.

Fucking bushes man.  Pointless shrubs.  Bob Ross may have painted "happy bushes" in his paintings, but I can tell you they are not happy pieces of shrubbery.  They are bullies.  They pick on grass because it is a weak set of organic blades.  Trees are the only things that keep bushes in line. Without trees it would be pandaemonium out there. Maybe this free-flow writing is less about bushes and more about trees.
