I think it's necessary for us all to be brought aboard our own drifting minds. I think we should all wander around the empty spaces of our mindful thoughts, and maybe get lost in the process. Leave an empty iron bucket behind, so a random old lady can trip and break her nose on the floor. Survive a nuclear strike eating Kit-Kat for 30 years, and go outside as a teethless person, just to find out that the nuclear raid was but an unsuccesful marketing campaign. Live a meaningless life, watching sports channels, weaving sweaters and banging your children on the head with a flagpole. Putting a cellphone inside our ears to see if the microwaves will boil our brains. Singing Lionel Ritchie's songs until someone comes and chops your head off with a polearm. Playing dead. Eating pork ribs. Playing with our own hair.
I think it's necessary for us all to get acquainted with our own selves.
"I don't believe in destiny
or the guiding hand of fate
I don't believe in forever
or love as a mystical state
I don't believe in the stars or the planets
or angels watching from above
but I believe there's a ghost of a chance
we can find someone to love
and make it la-aaast"
...well... maybe I do believe in all that.
maybe not. will have to get back to you on that. Ask me again in 60 years or so.
