the demands are high
the actual accomplishments, typical
and on a typical day, i won't even put into action 1% of my brainstorms/brain farts
i will probably only attend to my basic needs: eat, drink, pee, poop, sleep
there will be moments in the day where i will believe that
eating,
drinking,
peeing,
pooping
and sleeping
are not big enough accomplishments for my theoretical superhuman abilities
but my accomplishing those not big enough things makes me a winner at being human
at odd times, i am a recipient of life's and mother nature's serendipitous--seemingly magical and miraculous--moments, most of which won't even register with my tiny brain cells because i will be appropriately and understandably occupied with
eating,
drinking,
peeing,
pooping
and sleeping.
but that one serendipitous moment (or, finally, one brainstorm) that is made manifest will make me feel as if i, indeed, had been living as a superhuman all along
and that glimpse of magic will almost instantly, and surely innately, be pushed aside by my dire need to take a poop, a pee and a nap--waking later to feel hungry and thirsty
and then eventually (and again), hungering and thirsting for my once momentarily vivid superhuman abilities
