The clouded sky intrigues me
how can something be so dark yet shine so bright?
so obvious yet so confusing
I look to the sky as a solitary individual,
but the sky gives me company
fear
lonesomeness
image
consciousness
disappear
the clouded sky clears my clouded mind.
the breeze cools my hot head
look directly up.
pause.
breath.
think.


To do List: September 9th, 2008

Calm the body
Free the mind
Liberate your being
Imagine the abstract contained
It dwindles when trapped
Break
Turn the righteous
To the insane
Briefly, before anyone notices
Escape boundaries
Held in a moment
Revise instinct,
But go with your gut
See the concept blindly
Know the truth without knowledge
Strive for attention, but go unnoticed
Gradually grow
Expand, but do not waste.
SPACE.


A walk.

My feet are moving too quickly
Why rush?
I’m only circling what is to be achieved
the lights are blinding
I wish them to flicker
to act as a beacon and preserve my mood, their presence
I see purposed shadowed faces
with no names
and think nothing of passing in my own direction
My eyes droop.
My legs droop.

Sound droops.

It resonates throughout me
apparent to no one, but one.

I wonder what they think
The mad-man writing frantically
on the bench
ignoring their presence
but acknowledging their existence

Strange.

Lonesome thought antagonizes me
they follow closely,
chasing me,
rather, stepping on the heals of my shoe
My feet must again move quickly

I know running in circles will never get me anywhere,
but soon I will come to see things the same differently.


Consequently Undefined

I am one who thinks they know what they want, but I think completely irrationally.  I rearrange uncomprehendable words so they make more nonsense.  I make no sense but in five minutes I’ll make you crazy.  When I roll a cigarette I roll my tongue against the roof of my mouth.  I can’t spell, at all.  I think constantly, I write constantly, most of the time.  I do the majority of my thinking in the shower.  I am alone most of the time, but I still consider myself a social-lite.  When I have a thought I’m excited about I don’t finish writing the ends of words.  I don’t believe in God, but I believe in something.  I can never concentrate on just one thing at a time.  I’m always happy and depressed simultaneously.  I always feel like I’m missing out on something.  It is a necessity for me to see everything and never stay stagnate.  I think TV is the devil, but I wouldn’t mind watching some right now.  Not for it to entertain me, but to have something to look at as the time passes.  I hate the media and I hate people.  I’m a person, sometimes.  Sometimes I hate myself.  A lot of the time I ask myself “Who do I want to be” more often than not the answer is “myself” I hate time constraints.  I hate putting wet clothes in the dryer.

I like sitting in a spot long enough to look up and see the environment completely change.  When this happens I wonder if I’ve become part of the scene, or am I the one changing.  I like wasting time doing something creative.  I hate how that is considered to be “wasting time” I like when girls I don’t know smile at me.  I have a compulsive urge to mess with people and make them feel uncomfortable.  I like my coffee like I like my women; hot and black.  I think I’m funny, as you may have just seen.  I enjoy going outside barefoot at 3 a.m. and playing guitar singing at the top of my lungs so perhaps she will wake up and hear me.  I don’t know who she is, but hopefully she’s not pissed I woke her.  I try to define myself every now and then, yet I don’t own a dictionary large enough to do so.  Consequently, I am undefined.



Feeling colors… and other Intangibles

Is it me or the clouds?
Who is moving to fast?
The light kisses the tips
I envy the blue that circles
instead of the blue that overpowers
onto me.

I feel younger, but think older
not in a sense of age or wisdom
but more stale and not new
I am full rested, but exhausted

I need to travel
not far away, or even to a different place
I just want to feel as if I’m moving
even if it is just an illusion

I wish for the street lights
to never come on
things would be clearer that way
I could follow the smoke of my cigarette
and use the light of the ember to guide me

Harder to find

Breath escapes, but I am no longer capable
The thoughts that reach my skin have cooled
Only the efforts of cyclic friction remain
What turns the mind reaches the same point
I have changed, they have changed

Regression is subsequent to tattered memories
Those of happier days, easier times
Days when nothing was enjoyed
Consequently, it is now full of more emptiness

I am homeless, but sheltered
Overfilled by thought, but left more empty
Inhale, exhale
I’m back at the same spot, but it feels none the same.

I am surrounded by the artificial
Timed clicks mark my return
A return as they see
An arrival anew to me

Loss is too simple to explain
I need something more
More less like it is
Be it less of me to need something more

Shelled, caged, static
Received less by position
But led more by manner
A manner habitual of place, incomplacent

Trudging through, on the road
looking for direction
I look to the sun, not west nor east
it tells me nothing, at least for now it’s warm

We are all just a crowd
walking through each other
amongst chaotic single files
marching along in our heads

We are all just a crowd
closed off to the world
sealed in fog
we and soaking

We are all just a crowd
shrouded in anonymity
unplugged and replugged
frivolously wavering in and out between

We are all just a crowd
imagining our reality is really real



Philosophy


Response to Free Will
	Free will is the ability to assert power over one’s decisions.  To be able to commit a certain action, or determine a certain choice is equivalent to having free will.  However, this choice can be vastly effected.  The series of causal events before the action takes place and the apparent situation could, perhaps, be the origin of all decisions made by an individual;  this is considered to be determinism.  In one case, it is easy to say that we have free will because we believe our decisions we make are our desired choice, totally independent of anything else.  In another case, we are not exactly certain that the choice made was independent.  Individually we cannot recognize the origins of our choices, for that reason the choice made could be dependent upon some unknown factor.
My concern with not having free will is that it creates moral problems, which lead to other disadvantages.  For example, if I kill a man, am I held responsible?  If I have no free will, then I have no choice but to kill him.  It would then be morally wrong to punish an individual if their actions cannot be controlled.  This makes even simplest human interaction difficult.
	I believe that free will exists, but it is not completely free of determinism.  Free will is obviously swayed by the causal chain of events.  There is a reason you make the choices you do and that reason is based on past experiences and the present situation.  However, I believe the decisions you make based upon the causal chain and the current situation exists independently.  For example, if the room I am in is cold.  The causal chain of events tells me that I must warm myself, but my free will decides on taking a hot shower or getting a blanket.  If both have equivalent results of satisfaction of being warm, I then have the free will to make the decision of either.  Therefore, I believe that some type or form of free will does exist, yet simultaneously is controlled to an extent by a already determined set of events.


List of Thoughtful Maxims:


Ambiguity provokes thought.

intellectual capacity defines depth

Reality is a equilibrium of Social fabrications

Stubbornness is a lack of knowledge and understanding.

A thought is more relevant than an expression.

Everyone wants to be perfect, but hates perfection

Timing is something

Reflexes are all the matter in life

Plans are for those who are afraid of chance.
