United States DreamWax

A Story by Abishai100

A journeyman stews for escape and then normality/peace while reading Peter-Pan ideas about wandering detention.

A journeyman-fable inspired loosely by All the Pretty Horses (Matt Damon). Enjoy (and thanks for reading!),

Amlan Satan wandered around the Harvard campus with his copy of Peter-Pan in search of the right off-work experiences given his tedious bureaucratic life at the registry-office and commented on this post on Facebook with others who also commented on this new age 'claustrophobia' feeling in the United States!

AMLAN SATAN: Life inside the registry-office is quite boring, and though I like the 'chess' of it, it ain't a mountain-adventure!

So, he put on a bank-robbery costume and walked into a diamond-store in Cambridge and walked out with $20M blood-diamonds (swapped with toy beads!) which were insured (of course) and deposited them in a NI/UK account for his next visit to Belfast for a book-symposium.

AMLAN SATAN: Life has to get back into normalized gear(s), and hence, I'll be at a field lax-game with a rival school.

DIARY: I took a beautiful woman I met at the cornershop-bookstore to a night-outdoors bistro near the Harvard campus and enjoyed cheese-soup with her and told her of my fascination with Peter-Pan literature and why it reminded me of post-9/11 era Earth-joys in the United States.

This woman Satan met at the corner-bookshop (Eliza) touched his nerves, and he confided to her that he thought of himself as Peter-Pan himself, and he wondered if his experiences with his bureaucracy-imaginations and escapist-philosophy would bring him closer to some formal rationalism regarding democratic exchanges.

AMLAN SATAN: I believe I've found a post-marriage life of bliss on Facebook-chess, using adventurism to challenge others.

ELIZA: I'm gonna make you some 'fantastic' stained-glass art piece(s) for ideations on the human joys of self-aware chess!

Eliza became everything to Satan, and he knew now that what he sought more than anything was a way to settle down his feelings of flight into an Earth-dome for discovery of 'shared' mentalism. He didn't want to be Peter-Pan after all, just a Cambridge-man of 'fantastic' description (of married-life)!
