Writer's Block: Invisibility cloak
Mar. 18th, 2010 09:57 pm[Error: unknown template qotd]
I don't want to be invisible. I feel invisible often enough in my life, I don't want to actually be invisible.
But even more than not wanting to be unnoticed, ignored or unimportant, there is no one I want to spy on, nothing I want to steal and no reason for me to hide. I have no desire to skulk around and spy on people. There's no secret I need to uncover. Thievery eats at your soul, even if you can't get caught. If I really had to get away, I wouldn't need to be invisible, I'd just tell everyone I needed to get away. The demands on my time are all internally motivated and come from my own personal desires not other seeing me and forcing me to be something I don't want to be.
I suppose I could sneak into movies or plays or museums, but what's the point in that when you can't share it with anyone. Being invisible forces you to be separate and I would just hate to sit around and see people doing things I'd like to join in on only to be unable to.
Nah. Invisibility offers me nothing.
Flying, on the other hand, that would rock.
