The slow chatter around me droned in my ears like all the other times. The uselessness seemed to be so tangible I could almost feel it. Everything was almost going in slow motion. Some did not even talk at all but just stood there almost seemingly thinking about nothing at all. Their eyes were glazed with fatigue and their eyes distant, but not the kind of distant you'd see on someone dreaming, no it was more of a close far away look. Like they had nothing else to do but stare till their eyes just lost the will to focus on anything at all. Not that there was anything at all to focus on except perhaps the other people there.
I'm sure the people would be despondent, except there was nothing to despair about, for they all knew no better. No one here had a past, they have no present, and they for certain had no future.

Just me typing without thinking much about what I'm actually typing.
lol! I read that a couple times trying to come up with the hidden meaning.... :)
It was very interesting though! (no, actually, I don't just say this stuff. ;b) With a couple tweaks it could likely become an awesome metaphor! :D
Hmm.. its not really anything. It could be a random paragraph in a larger story. I don't know, I just rambled on about something that doesn't really have much meaning. lol.
If I changed the last paragraph and took out the "I'm sure the people would be despondent, except there was nothing to despair about for they knew no better" then it could be a vivid illustration of the despondency of an unchristian life..
That's actually what I thought it was at first. :)
It is. It is a huge metaphor. Well written.
