Deleted Member Posted May 22, 2021 Posted May 22, 2021 Pinball. Side to side, the s***d ever increasing as life takes its toll, the ball smashing from side to side. Thoughts faster and faster, the pinball wrecking it's way through the shattered skull of a man who only recently really started to understand himself, never mind the world and all its protocols, rules and strange foibles. The pinball, taking it's toll, never understood, at a lightening pace. The pinball causing constant confusion, a sense of never knowing, until? Until a place found, a place of freaks, a place of deviants, a place of the misunderstood, a place of the odd, the shunned, the weird, the different. A place where the pinball makes sense, a place where others understand.. The pinball slows, it's pace calm, it's rebounds gentler as finally the man whose mind rebounds endlessly with the isolation sees others, who like him know the pinball all to well. This place, a place of the misunderstood, a place of acceptance and warmth. A place of the odd, weird, shunned, but a place where finally the oddness becomes anything but odd, this place. A girl, a woman, maybe she knows. Maybe she understands, maybe she knows the pinball in her own way. Maybe she gets it and knows all too well the pinball, the society that rejects those who feel its harsh rebounds, maybe she, like him gets it. Maybe, maybe.
Deleted Member Posted May 23, 2021 Author Posted May 23, 2021 Thank you DonnyPrimal . I know the pinball all too well, I’ve lost count of the number of Tilt endings! It’s a rough game that challenges us to the point where you either give up or you get up and kick it’s fucking teeth in …….Tommy can you hear me ? 🙏❤️
