I look back and realize that I am suffering the same fate of being forgotten as my father. Not that those who know me (such few that can count under that heading) will forget me, but I have little record of my existence. Few pictures, fewer still social images that prove what kind of individual I am. My world will fade away and despite the things I have done... from the crimes I've commited and will forever carry the burden for, to the lives I have saved and will never take credit for.... all of these will be forgotten as my identity fades into the nothingness of time. I stand in the shadows, I face the things that crawl and lurk there more often than most people even look at the shade on a hot day. And yet I will fade away into the very same darkness. It's a hint more than a humbling thought.
I carry no gun, I use only wit and on occasion a blade. I do not make the news overtly and never mentioned by name. I am sure even this will go unread and mostly it is used as a sounding board for my own delusions and concepts.... anyway I must be off now...
