I love the dark
as long as it's not
dark.

We're all homesick
for the black hole
where we once lived
before the big bang
but now we are on
this spaceship planet
exploring infinity
for eternity.

I had thoughts today
that probably many people
are taking LSD
everyday
like others take multivitamins
and that this could be doing
something very odd
to all of our minds.

There is
an awful war
going on
between the good
and the bad
so I've decided
to **** them both.

Someone with a mind
which is just starting something
has very many options
about how to proceed
and sometimes
they are trapped
because there are so many directions
to go
that they can't decide on any.
Someone with a mind
who has studied something
for a long time
has few options
about how to proceed
and sometimes
they are trapped
because there seems to be
only one way to go.
Someone with a mind
who is a master
has no options
I think
and therefore they can do anything
that they want or don't want
so they are not trapped
and they fly.

Are there any thoughts
in here to write about
right now?
Sure, there is this thing
about happiness
and how it comes and goes
and never quite lasts,
about how we are miserable
one moment
and smiling the next.

A long time ago
I heard about
people who wash
their hands
about a thousand times a day
and can't help it
and can't stop it
so that freaked me out
and I decided unconsciously
to stop washing my hands
and then a long while after that
I thought that it was time
to wash my hands again
after hearing about its health benefits
so now I take care
to wash my hands
and I do it just enough
times a day.
