Millennial Meditations (1/3)
Smoke is billowing from the side of a skyscraper against a cloudless, light blue sky; a plane is flying toward the adjacent tower.
*BOOM*
Holy shit!

I haven’t smoked cannabis in three days; feeling tired and uneasy. A friend said, “Weed saved me from killing myself.” I believe him, but weed isn’t a solution. It’s too easy to fall back into familiar habits, especially when enforced by friends. Some say, “You’re the average of your five best friends.”
Understanding and spotting logical fallacies will reduce the risk of being manipulated by irrational and deceitful individuals; politicians and social activists are the most egregious offenders in daily life.; they’ll use strawmans, red herrings, and draw misguided causes from minimal correlation. Whenever an individual paints with a broad brush, generally, a false claim will follow;
Lost in the Lub Lub.
Did you hear that … no?
Sunny—no shots, nor bombs dropped
Only sheep should bleat
lotus, Buddhist monk
gasoline dripping, drenched
strike a match, fire, ash
I feel Godly when staring at ants—
less so with elephants and orcas;
the latter sings and chats for leagues
the prior’s trunk caresses and ensnares
I walk out of the shed in my parent’s backyard and hear chickens in the distance.
“cock, cock-cock-cock”
I got your gir-rl — ca-lling me
She said you buggin’, like a flea
jumping and biting — ya’ fam-i-lee
Thoughts are hangin’ — from a tree
Cracked eggs
Who killed the chick?
Smashed and smothered
Was she the perpetrator, or,
Listen friends, listen close
I would like to propose a toast
for the happy couple, new wed
raise your glass above your head
Master, my only friend; dead.
Poetic partnership; *POOF*
must — go — a – lone …
pestering: students and fame.
I tried to be a friend and therapist for several creatives; I failed miserably at both. Although there are similar aspects to each role—such as attentive listening and encouragement—there are mutually exclusive traits as well.
