to be awoken from the apathy / herd mentality
and to have to take to,
familial / individual / / / / group
pathologies, in that famous "metaphor"
I.e. the blatantly obvious crux of:
    take up your own cross...
     people fear not what they don't
understand, but rather what not longer
allows them the three wise monkeys excuse...
people lie about being apathetic
   excusing themselves as being
  a-pathos, i.e. without pathology...
      man is a social creature in that he is
as long as he has made the collective
apathy a non-existent pathology of his own
self not be allowed theatre...
   and then cringing at the extravagance of
artists?
         to agitate a "person's" apathy
is to prey on the weak in the herd,
which not the predator but the herd deems
outcast, leftover...
       even though the predator is not that
strong either.., the weak prey on the weak...
until an average is fathomable
in an absurdist street theatre in mimic
with advert slogans or: neo-blitzkrieg
    transcendence of medium.
people are never offended
    in the sense that they are woken
by having hidden their inherited pathology
into an equilibrium of a-pathos,
      an illusion of denial,
   rather than a delusion of doubt,
never fascinating the emotional
turmoil of the act of doubt,
making the act if faith, synonymous
with denial...
                  this is only a sketch...
like any olympian, the idea is to pass
on something, even if it's but a glimpse
at the end of a tunnel.
