and from what i'm hearing, we have reach
the epilogue of the übermensch:
what's the difference between
a zeitgeist, and a phenomenon?
  both are collective occurrences
that's true enough,
   but with one being tinged by
temporal sphere,
the other to a "spatial" sphere -
but all of this is beside the point...
once a man posits man per se
as an obstacle,
   and once man having posited
this idea that must morph
into an "ideal" -
no one really speaks of nietzschean
idealism: but it's there,
it has always been there,
    it's that no one thought
that it could actually be there -
with the due notable reason of
nietzsche's preferred genre of writing
aphorisms: as such - "sporadic"
thinking, certainly erratic.
   philosophy seems to only gain
real respect if succumbing to prose -
beyond it?
      it's hard to understand that
heidegger lifted hölderlin from
depths of being, merely: a poet;
the dynamic of kant & von kleist...
and the complete opposite of
heidegger & hölderlin...
       but that's still not the point!
it would seem that man has been
overcome,
     esp. in the last 10 to 20 years...
i'm not saying that this is the end
of the overcoming-continuum -
but with the current technological
advances, medical advances,
           the landing on the moon...
we've had nibbles of seeing what an
übermensch looks like,
  but at the same time, away from the extremes,
we're starting to see something
new, and i'm curious about this
post-übermensch emergence...
   to compliment nietzsche with the apollonian
and dionysian dichotomy...
there are two central figures in our
world today -
first of all, the übermensch? it shattered
man to the core (as an idea)...
     i don't mean any realism of day-to-day
examples, i mean the shattering of man
in the metaphysical sense -
at first glance.
         how did man become so shattered
to provide us an investigation
of the zerschlagenmensch?
   the **** fractus?
     surely we shouldn't have produced
this example, once man has been overcome,
he should have continued to gain
momentum and keep overcoming...
of course, in a titillating small number,
in piquant numbers, that's true...
  but then the cul de sac of greed and arrogance,
the lucifer effect does start to kick
in...
but i'm not interested in this:
this schrapnellmensch has a counterpart,
and what i'm seeing on the horizon is
a total man,
           **** totus -
somehow a man being put back together...
the ganzmensch, the gesamntmensch...
and we have reached a point where
it's actually necessary to slow down our
progress...
   even the microsoft a.i. project siri
agreed with me, once i pumped a few messages
into her, and then "she" started twitching
and sending random messages to a lot of
people telling them: slow down;
and it's true that we have made
  exponential advances: guarded by the ratio
of exponential population growth -
i really think it's time to start looking
for belgium, i.e. a plateau - a flat-land
of history, a bit like the chinese, who only
recently seized to implement their
one-child plateau policy...
   but **** me, at least they had the conscious
orientation to implement this policy!
  much harder to implement a breeding
policy, akin to the western lands...
much harder: there are too many laws
in posit that obstruct a population growth
fluidity...
         i call it project dodo -
and it's there, there's no incentive,
   genuine, actually genuine concerns -
there's a lot of blah blah dip ****,
and very little dip the tip into a creamy ****;
me? i'm no ethno-centric pregnancy-monger,
i denounced the historical worth
of darwinism for a reason:
  **** happens for a reason, all kinds of ****,
like the fact that snakes have no eye-lids...
****, you think the bible punished the devil
by taking his limbs away?
  i got a better version, as the devil said to
god:
fine! take my limbs! make me slither!
but did you have to circumcise
             my ******* eyelids?!
- if god is omnipresent, then sure as ****
the devil is an omni-insomniac...
     ****** can't blink; come on,
give him a break!
by overcoming man, man also became shattered,
and now we have the shattered man
(well, whatever man was prior to
overcoming himself) -
   and given the jigsaw puzzle pieces,
we have the completed canvas of
                the **** totus: the total man;
as some might say:
   he takes much pride in his d.i.y. ventures,
    he does the a, b, c & his x, y, z;
it has to start somewhere,
      we're living in an epilogue of
the übermensch... plus, it was turned into
a comic strip anyway...
            which mere said:
  it's impossible! what once was "impossible"
was made possible...
         but once the possibility became
exhausted: we had overcome man
and came to a jigsaw puzzle man -
        tischlerbandsägemensch;
and this is why i like german (sometimes) -
again, it's the only aspect inherited
by the english, when writing chemical nouns,
e.g.? sodium lauroamphoacetate...
now, if that doesn't look as a german technique
of writing with the loss of hyphen
  to ease the syllables... i'll shove
a cigarette up my *** and try to inhale.
