oddity-quiddity

‘time-honored afflictions with duty their despoil and despotic authority’




the output is zero

the real me is but a pigment from your fragmented imagination, constipainted…

defined by the palette and hues in your hand, the brush your guide to the inside…

the mind pouring out its’ wisdom, drained of a cacophony clamoring for retreat…

voices of spirit taking over, perhaps the ghosts of past or present regrets…

the meat of the brain might distract away, though sometimes as obvious change…

enlightenment the vital remains creeping in, to prevent the ficklest of fate…

choices seem random at first with few certainties, except for those one sees…




the Critic

that judgmental voice in the back of your mind…




Mind is a Jumble

…”the method you mention is madness, a dancing repetition
moving behind the eyes, a variety of senses and images
looking for a sense of gravity to pull details aside”…




Here…

‘sitting, stinging, slinging
… pen to paper

… an authority,
gripped in a cacophony

a phony, mad cockiness

throwing random angles, as angels to faith, manic head full of fate

this tangled stasis, a mass awash in faces, displaces interest between

these jagged fragments, of man incorporating machine, to seize the world

in a capital scheme, the extreme of which, takes a cruel touch

to collapse a hateful trust, dreams to mutate dreams, mutilate and conquer

disagreement achieving, an uneasy humanity, moving slowly across the page

the tormented sage, spilling words of was-dumb, refused or accepted sum…’




Scene or Seen?

‘this? rhythm words, kindness, the inert…’




the money spent…

of power being manifested in money
a quantified tool for the wealthy
how do you make others do as you wish?
shine the currency of your favorite
country or society in dire straits
if you are one of those observed to have
more than others and flash it around
gratuitously only to be robbed
by a system that makes money




Let us see how far this goes…

out of Context;
‘to shock and amaze you with my strength and skill even as i deny myself the praise that naturally involves the person this way to behave, but i relent Here as this is my space where the mind can dispose of its weight in the possibility that any one person would read this trash is an ungrateful fate… this opinion masked in words that disguise the acts as they occur to in fact blur the lines between exact and vague restriction with the chemical plastic symbols at my fingertips slightly constricting my movements on the keyboard that opens these gates to the greatness…’




the cunt tree in Vain.

out of Context;
‘there is only a temporary haven of the ‘out-of-sight’ kind of sanctuary as darkened forces pervade every molecule in the cosmic stream whether we like that or not, the loose ends are always being tied by someone somewhere in the hiding shadow falling as the sun moves further out our unwieldy orbit a MAD extension (Machination Attempting Democracy) in spite of the corporate fetish fashionable among the TV watchers watching us right now… the monitors hidden by the heads thrown back in sad laughter at the state of things today, and the inhumans trained to dis-involve their true humanity until the time card is punched out…’
