WHAT WE THINK WE KNOW

 

depends on how we are taught and how we learn to interpret, against the background chatter of our internalized egocentric preconceptions of what we think we comprehend; thus, our idea of what the outside is becomes but a representation of how we are taught to tag and process, comparing ever more complex data to the simple sets of constructs that we utilize in order to categorize unknowns and place them into tidy prejudicial formats to avoid feeling completely lost and incompetent....Ironically, the less one comprehends and understands, the more this process becomes necessary, inevitable, futile and stultifyingly meaningless.....

it is not possible to see without prejudice, since this is how the brain has learned to interpolate and avoid confusion, while simultaneously ignoring the paths of wisdom; consequently, rendering the entire process virtually retrogressive and pre-telencephalonal.......

VOLATILITY OF EMOTIONS

exhausted, oscillating between hopelessness and fury
i cannot assuage either,
angry that things are not the way they ought,
and sad to know the way of the world;
for now, that is the landscape of my emotions,
and I cannot change the past
and cannot let it go.

someone, please remind me to drink coffee, if anything, while I'm preparing a complex feast....
pickled kumquats and brandied cranberrys, anyone?

SARGASSO SEA

 

after a long period of confusion which has denied even the clarity of nothingness, i can see the blackness of calm, beyond the electrical storm that ravages, with helter-skelter images gathered willy-nilly from the crevices, corners and convoluted conundrums, tangles, cobwebs and conscious confabulations of necessity.......the gripping rings of constriction loosen to view possibilities beyond fixations and retention......

FIERCEGRIEF

 

NO ONE REALLY DOESN'T CARE...NOW REALLY....JUST DON'T ASK ME WHAT TO DO! .

"..Cheshire Puss,' [Alice] began, rather timidly, as she did not at all know whether it would like the name: however, it only grinned a little wider. ..Come, it's pleased so far,' thought Alice, and she went on. ..Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?' ..That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,' said the Cat.

..I don't much care where--' said Alice.

..Then it doesn't matter which way you go,' said the Cat. ..--so long as I get SOMEWHERE,' Alice added as an explanation.

..Oh, you're sure to do that,' said the Cat, ..if you only walk long enough.'"
