Balance

I've really changed, evidently.

I'm not so much the rebel without clue or cause anymore; I've slipped into some form of near middle-aged calmness. Placidity. Self-content amidst a struggle against self-destruction. Complacency? Perhaps. It's all over and I'm standing pretty / In this dust that was a city.

Was the city me?

I did not see that one coming. [livejournal.com profile] ralmathon and I used to refer to Darkside as War, and Adam as Peace, and me as the city; the city would either be possessed by peace, or invaded by war... have I destroyed myself, was I destroying myself in those weeks that this song refused to leave my head?

Something to think about.

Or were you destroying the artificial, inhumanly-scaled contrivances of the city to get back to the natural landscape underneath?

(Don't mind me, I know nothing about your situation, I'm just riffing off the imagery).
