Stranded
Tracy Wilson
APRIL 25. Even the morning air is sultry today. I would have fished for my breakfast last night before sunset, but I knew that it would surely spoil before morning. Drinking my water warm has taken some getting used to. It’s funny how we take certain things like ice for granted. If I become desperate I can always resort to eating the freeze dried rations, but that defeats my purpose for being here to begin with. Besides, they are about as edible as the tough, dry bark in a long dead tree. I think I have almost learned to track the time by the rays of the sun. Time, like water, seems to sit in a pot unable to boil if your eye isn’t constantly on it. Time seems to be the only thing that man hasn’t learned to control; but I am sure some genius like Fred Johnson is currently working on it, while sitting in a cubicle checking the four thousand emails on his smart phone. As for me, I think I will lean back on this dune and nap a while before I head out to catch some lunch.

25 DE ABRIL. Incluso el aire de la mañana es sensual hoy. Hubiera pescado mi desayuno anoche antes del atardecer, pero sabía que seguramente se echaría a perder antes del amanecer. Me ha costado un poco beber agua tibia. Es curioso cómo damos por sentado ciertas cosas como el hielo. Si me desespero, siempre puedo recurrir a comer las raciones liofilizadas, pero eso, para empezar, frustra mi propósito de estar aquí. Además, son casi tan comestibles como la corteza dura y seca de un árbol largo y muerto. Creo que casi he aprendido a rastrear el tiempo por los rayos del sol. El tiempo, como el agua, parece estar en una olla que no puede hervir si su ojo no está constantemente en él. El tiempo parece ser lo único que el hombre no ha aprendido a controlar; pero estoy seguro de que algún genio como Fred Johnson está trabajando actualmente en eso, mientras está sentado en un cubículo revisando los cuatro mil correos electrónicos en su teléfono inteligente. En cuanto a mí, creo que me recostaré en esta duna y tomaré una siesta antes de salir a almorzar.
