Sometimes you think
you're doing things
for no reason but really
there is a secret reason
like you want to be
part of the human dialogue
or part of some group
or you want to achieve some
hidden goal that you only
really think about in the dead of night
or something.

here

finding a pinecone in a downtown dont dont
know what a why and a how is a weird
question when a person is a dog
and when a dog is a word
understood to mean anything
other than what he first was wanting
to say about a life and being a person;
living a normal life with all of the foods
and heat required. what that looks like,
what that sounds like, what that smells like

Many gods

I had the opportunity, today
to slowly, with purpose,
scrawl on a cardboard box
"SOY JESUS,"
while saying the words,
"SOY JESUS"
While others
enjoyed the moment

A coworker, stoned out of his mind,
asked me, "how do we know we're not all dead?"
and for some reason in that situation all i could do
is look at him, with this stupid half smile and make some
noise come out of my mouth while kinda
shaking my head, hoping he would lose interest
in such a ridiculous question and figure out something
else to talk about like his favorite type of chip

2 truths and a lie?

Beneath the great stone owl Moloch,
small Mitt was anointed with the accursed oil of forsaken justice.

Baby-faced Paul Ryan, in a bizarre, unwelcome haste,
donned a white apron and frantically scrubbed at clean pots with his wife.

Barack Obama adjusted his flag pin, making sure it was in full view.
"When you're a socialist, you can't be too careful," he joked, flashing a wide smile.

I forgot to wear my pants to the beach
No one told me!
It was just a mistake, of course. But... fake apology
Acting like it was actually a really progressive thing to do.
Like, it was way ahead of our time to do that.
Put a seed of doubt in their heads, ya know?

Quarter-life crisis:
Realizing everything you've already done 
is incredibly stupid
and that you have a nearly nonexistent chance of
contributing anything noteworthy to anything
and that you are slowly deteriorating already
making the possibility of achieving the level 
you once imagined more unlikely with every day
and simultaneously rejecting that self-pity 
to make room for a new proficiency in life-mystery analysis
and a calm but satisfying sense of communion with 
one hundred billion souls or more

On the one hand, I have a strong urge to refrain from posting these writings and save myself from unnecessary embarrassment... Yet at the same time I reject the notion of censoring one's own thoughts, since they are true thoughts, and shouldn't we be constantly striving to understand truth and reality?
There are so many layers of pretense and self-deception within one's own mind, it is almost disgusting.
I wish I could remove even one layer per year, that is part of the reason I am anti-self-censorship!  We should face our own inner stupidity and embarrassment with courage--only then can we work towards improving ourselves! (I'm not sure if this is true at all)
To be honest, I just read an interview with John Maus and I think that is what prompted me to write this. I was impressed with John Maus' self-doubt and honesty and frankness. I thought to myself, "I understand this John Maus and I think he is a transcendental man--yes, transcendental is the best word I can think of--and I think what makes him so inspirational to me is his level of honesty with himself and his level of mindfulness about the world he lives in. I chose the word 'transcendental' because I think it captures the feeling I have that John Maus is taking a step outside the ordinary experience of life to observe himself and the world from a more objective vantage. And perhaps there is some arrogance in all of this, but I felt such a connection with John Maus as I read about him, as if he were saying things that I've felt but never really had a reason
(or maybe even the ability) to express."
It's so easy to ignore our own inner motivations, but if we quietly and carefully observe ourselves we can understand them. I know I have often been disgusted with myself after discovering some deep and selfish motivation for something I've said or done. Upon analyzing such a motivation I'll often conclude that it is primal and instinctual in nature, intrinsic to our being and efficiently designed to ensure survival and ruthless propagation of the human species. Yet I think we have the ability to control nature.
I suppose the principled person is always add odds with himself, feeling a constant discord between the selfish, primitive commands of nature and the nobler designs of the civilized mind. "This is all boring nonsense, of course".

All the trees you know have grown to a tremendous height
You rake what's underneath into a pile, compact it
Turn it into bread
You present this bread to the King
who discovers a golden key baked in the loaf
He uses this key to unlock the bread-bearer's chest
revealing the sky of another kingdom
But this kingdom is on an ocean world
that begins to drain 
then the camera pans up, out of the sink, to a boy brushing his tooth
"Mom, I lost my tooth" 
Mom grabs the tooth and tosses it into a little yellow box
that holds all the other teeth.

This is what I was thinking of while my dad was talking to me
at length about something while I was walking with him.

Am I a bad son?
If my father reads this will I then be a bad son?
What does it mean to be a bad son?
Do I care about my designation as a bad son or a good son?
Is there such a son as is neither good nor bad?
Supposing that all sons save one son vanished from the earth,
would that remaining son's status as a bad soon or a good son
remain unchanged? 
More generally, does one's status as a bad or good son depend
upon the status of other sons?
Does anyone care if they are a son?
Does the sound of son affect our perception of son?
Why is it embarrassing to speak of sons?
Is it embarrassing because the fact that I have written many lines now
about the concept of "son" implies that I for some reason care
about this concept, or my status within a son-structure?
Why is it embarrassing to care?
Is it embarrassing or is it simply boring?

Chris likes apples
and always takes his vitamin

July 28, 2012


I awoke at 4:00 AM
unable to stop thinking of reality
as fitting neatly into a square grid
Obviously, it's because I spent the last
two days editing 16x16 pixel sprite sheets.
Perhaps that is too critical of an assessment to make
when trying to write stimulating prose
to spread the false heavenly noble ape-dream
but, alas, it is all I can muster,
as I am now going through a brief critical assessment phase
most likely brought about by months of dull groping
in front of a machine!
which is good and proper for our modern age!
Ah, to be an entrepreneur! To gaze over glinting smokestacks
spillowing brown tufts over winter haze!
The taste of progress is sharp with blood!
To spread maple syrup over buttered discs
is a wonderful metaphor for our time.
girl you smell as sweet as rotten apple

IT is interesting that
i have seen a woman i
work with slip and fall down
twice

AND when telling someone
of this in a discussion
of people we've seen fall down
which included only this woman,
i learned that she has been
witnessed slipping and falling
down additional times

SO this means that multiple
people have seen one person
falling down multiple times,
a concept i cant understand

instead given physical mass

or the meaning attached to

"Carrier see on TV are the picture frame small, to see the real aircraft carrier to feel the huge volume. Take their children to walk the walk very good, very educational. Around a lot of entertainment facilities around the seafood restaurant industry is unique."

Walk no long god about sight-handed boldness technocrat. Able seeing with no laugh wings side collapse, might take building throughout and collide. Anyway can have youth in regard.

An object #1

A small wood block
that one might stand on
to make a moment in a
photograph closer to the idea
that the photographer
may have about the height of an individual,
but more specifically
the "face-level equality" of the
individuals in a photograph,
seen to be a crucial part of the composition
of the photograph that the photographer
and those paying for the photograph have
seen as important elements in the
successful representation of
the people involved
(and therefore key to the
photographer's
frozen dinner)

Chicken nuggens

Instead of thinking
about how i can

for the promotion,
all i can think of is
what if i wear a "Motorhead" shirt
and black sweatpants
to work with dark sunglasses on.

  • iNibblit

War

I wanna die in a war
Dual wielding automatic rifles, I wanna go out shooting.
Its's gonna be really cool.

I wanna die in a world war
kill em cuz they think the wrong way. pretend it's not about money.
Plus they have the wrong god and no morals.

I wanna die in a cold war.
Alone in a fallout shelter.
"We are all just gonna die anyway"
