My Wall
Cave Walls
Cave Walls
A while ago, I thought I knew everything. I saw the shadows on the cave wall and knew that was everything.
Knowing. Knowing is a strange word. Knowing something is true and something being true are entirely independent of one another.
I used to see the world the way I was trained to see it. I only looked at what I was trained to look at.
Knowing is sweet though, as bountiful as a drenching summer rain.
Knowing and looking down on the plebs who don't know feels both exhilarating and defeating.
You're so much wiser than them, yet they will never take your wisdom when you offer it.

What are you doing later?
Time is weird. It's really weird. When you're growing up, years seem to last forever. It's because you're constantly learning, your routine is constantly changing. Even though you go to school every day, there's still some excitement of what might happen, the people you might meet.
Then it happens.
You're grown up. You're stuck at a dead-end job you hate, selling yourself just to survive. Days fly past, but then they also seem to drag without end. I think that's because while we're at work, it is just numbing. All that time at work seems to coalesce together. Every day is exactly the same. There's nothing more to learn. You do your job, and then you might have 4 or 5 hours before you have to go to bed and then start it all again.
What is it all for?
Life is so long, but I know when it's over I'll wish it was just a little longer. The paradox of living is something I can't quite ever wrap my mind around. We look to each new day as the day when things finally change, and each day we come to terms that there's no way out.

There's lots of different versions of me. Sometimes I'm you. It's so awesome when I'm you. You don't know how good you have it. So carefree. So uninhibited.
When you're me, you know it's hell. Nobody would want to be me. I am nobody.
Sometimes I've long since been deceased, my body rotting in a coffin somewhere. Sometimes I'm just being born. I'm just seeing the lights of the world after being ripped from the void without any consent.
The void awaits us all. Whether you want to call that God or not is up to you. You're already there, right now. This is just a memory of you reading this post. We're all already there. We've been there since the beginning, and we'll still be there at the end.
When I try to remember the void, all I can remember is calmness, like the slow crashing waves rolling up on the shore of a psychedelic island. It's peaceful there. There's no fighting, no ego. We are one collective unit.
This life is just going through the motions. The script has already been written. It's been written since the beginning. The dominos have been falling for billions of years and look who we have here. It's you. I always knew it would be you.
You were the one who was supposed to read this. How you take it, I have no idea. I'm just a madman, and you should ignore my ramblings.

They wouldn't…..
*Aluminum cans rattling*Sometimes I think about weird things. I think about why things are the way they are. We have such a homeless problem in this country. To get any help, you've got to fill out tons of paperwork. Some people won't go through the trouble and they may later end up homeless.
We have the resources to help these people, yet we don’t. Does the government not help them because they've already done this test and seen that maybe these people that won’t fill out the paperwork would not be beneficial as capitalist slaves? They might just serve their best purpose as a thought of what happens if we stop working?
Am I being coerced into working until I'm dead?
