"If you enjoy wasting time,

then it isn't time wasted"

- John Lennon

“The moon is friend

for the lonesome

to talk to.” 

- Carl Sandburg

“If more of us valued food

and cheer and song

above hoarded gold,

it would be a merrier world.”

― J.R.R. Tolkien

My neighbor knocked on my door

at 2:30 am this morning,

Can you believe fucking 2:30am?!

Luckily for him

I was still up playing drums. :)

"Who what am I?

I am the sum total of everything

that went before me,

of all I have been seen done,

of everything done-to-me.

 I am everyone everything

whose being-in-the-world

affected was affected by mine.

I am anything that happens

after I've gone

which would not have happened

if I had not come.

Nor am I particularly exceptional

in this matter;

each "I", everyone,

contains a similar multitude.

I repeat for the last time:

to understand me,

you'll have to swallow a world."

"We who are royal

are a class apart.

We are worshipped prisoners,

processional toys.

We pay for worship 
by losing

our elementary freedom."

(H.G.Wells - The food of the gods)

"I walk through the desert

Alone in the night 
And I see all the Gods

In the distant cold light.

They’re bathing in blood

Of the children they killed

And the dead are left dying

In the empty blue well..."

(!!3:10 - !!!3:32 - 4:06!!! - 4:37!!)

Blood

that does not circulate

festers;

imaginations

that are not stirred

decay.

(Star Begotten)

"Sorrow is knowledge,

those that know the most

must mourn the deepest;

the tree of knowledge

is not the tree of life."

- Lord Byron
