everything has been ground away. ever see a machine seize up? the parts that rub against one another, for lack of lubrication, or cooling, or clearance, or bearings, or some such.... those surfaces in the absence of any help, heat up. they deform, they change so that the normal function is gone.

all the places where we touch are seized up. the normal flow of lubrication has been stopped; there is no compassion, no benefit of the doubt, no love. the normal methods of cooling are gone; there is no space, no relief. the normal things that act as bearings are missing; there is no human touch, no intimacy, no sharing.

it is all shrieking screeching sparking mess, dangerously incandescent. an expensive non functional wreck.

sad because the redline was cruelly and deliberately ignored. all the warning signs disregarded. purposefully broken.

goddammit.

It will probably seem lame of me to chime in here with "Hang in there, Deuce, it will get better", but it will. I sincerely wish you the strength to get through these bad times to the better ones ahead.
