21 | _I don't care if they burn_ he wrote on his last blank notecard. He'd have to | ||
22 | go to the Office Supply Store tomorrow after work. | ||
23 | |||
24 | He looked at what he'd written. He'd been thinking about this for a while, | ||
25 | felt the frustration build slowly like a thundercloud in the back of his mind. | ||
26 | He thought he should write something else on the card, but everything he | ||
27 | thought of seemed too confessional or too real compromising. He didn't want | ||
28 | anyone, not even the notecards, to know what he was thinking. He decided to | ||
29 | try for more of an interview with the paper. | ||
30 | |||
31 | _Why?_ asked the notecard. _Because there is nothing important on any of | ||
32 | them_ he wrote back. _What do you mean? You have some good stuff in that top | ||
33 | drawer there._ He looked in the top drawer. It was stuffed full of notecards | ||
34 | in no organization. He could see bits and pieces of thoughts like leaves | ||
35 | crunched underfoot in autumn. _It will take so much organization_ he wrote. | ||
36 | |||
37 | _Why is organization important? Remember the trees, how they formed rows | ||
38 | without trying. No matter how the ideas fall, they make something. The snow | ||
39 | does that too_ he wrote. _It doesn't try to make anything but it does._ | ||
40 | |||
41 | _No the snow is different_ the notecard was annoyed. _The snow is a blank | ||
42 | canvas that humans build into shapes or doppelgangers. It makes nothing on | ||
43 | its own._ | ||
