Hey You

I walked (hobbled) by two syringes today walking into the office. Both still had needles attached.


And today I came in to the office, feeling sore and tired from this shingles virus. But then Pink Floyd came on.

Specifically Hey You and I thought about the line from Comfortably Numb regarding the "pin prick".

The narcotic of music takes the edge, the anxiety off the current situation at work and with my housing. And I can forget that there are two needles outside on the sidewalk on a rainy day that have probably nothing to do with someone's need for insulin and more likely have more to do with someone's need to insulate themselves from pain.

Thank you, Floyd.

From my Yogi tea tag today:
"Recognize that you are the truth."
