Shameless
to admit; in both good and bad times, I have set the outermost
limits: seeing mankind as vermin and divine; both. To choice between
the two polarities is our greatest, at least for me -- for now -- the
best expression of free will communicable.
A
little of Annie Dillard, a lot of Franz Kafka and a smattering of
manifold authors throughout time helps a great deal. Their conjecture
defining the parameters of consciousness and conscience. Of course,
it is impossible to leave out the wisdom books. To which I add all
and not exclusively The Bible.

02:45 Swiftly submerging into nadir of life, the longest night, I do
add: to me the world is a dog and upon it ride, for free, fleas who
rule by theft. That, in the main, is the body. The tail however is
wagged by lunatic zealots or fanatics; fundamentalist who in large
measure treasure the past over the present.
Happily
bereft of anything other than a companion cat; I am able to no longer
need television to hold my private thoughts immune from housemates
accusations that I am insane. It follows that upon entering, thrice
weekly, the men’s locker room, I witness the excretory functions of
celebrity “tits and ass” plus a few Chiclets toothed men in
Armani suits being flatulent through the obverse orifice. The
burlesque is enhanced by a braying politician.
Molested
from infancy until recently; so near death. In a sense learning to
traverse life as if in a dark room covered in marbles; chaos and
chance being my middle name actually. I find myself no longer
resentful of those who stole my inheritance and now promise to
censure the World Wide Web.
Odd,
the education I’ve received, paid to witness the supercilious
pretending importance. More bizarre; is the ability to bless my
executioners knowing their divinity indifferent to them. To suffer
the fools I have.
-
Demosthenes
“A
man is his own easiest dupe, for what he wishes to be true he
generally believes to be true.”
“It
is not possible to found a lasting power upon injustice, perjury, and
treachery.
“What
we wish, that we readily believe.”
