A rant about life, love and progress..

           It's a crazy thing thinking about the future. It's important to have goals, work creates function, it creates character; but, it's not up to us what happens really. If you notice the causal relationships in your life like I do in mine, then you'd probably see how there's no way we could have predicted the path of connected dots that has gotten us here.
           It's a crazy thing thinking about the progress our world has undergone in the last 200 years since the industrial revolution, the creation of cars and airplanes and trains and nukes and satellites, telephone wires, fucking space heaters and submarines; it's crazy to think about the 3 reactor debacle that's happening in Japan right now, potassium Iodide sold out at every store and clerks telling the panicked public they're not allowed to order more.
          If you didn't know, people are buying Potassium Iodide because it prevents our Thyroid from taking up the radiation from the surrounding environment, and essentially fucking up all of your metabolic functions. I heard the shit has been sold out for years though, so maybe it's not in account of the fact that it is said that the radiation around Japan will be greeting the West Coast, how timely depending  on the airflow.
        Everyone has a little less information than the next guy, it's likely we'll never really know what's going on until it happens. In my opinion it's better that way, it leaves less room for uncontrolled minds to run rampant. I'm not saying spit blindly into oncoming wind and hope it doesn't hit you.

Karma is the balance judging

But life is not court and you won’t win from grudging

So quick, run and tell the others

while your balance is off

it's not safe to be lovers

Just remember you can’t sue for the blues

So breathe deep, solidify your structure

This electric heart muse

needs the option to rupture

and with no attachments to lose

I’ve abandoned all clutter

I don't fear the bruise

because I'm fine in the gutter

in forgetting results

and releasing the cover,

We unlock deadbolts

and prepare to discover

the unpredictability of new paths

new lovers

and since no reality lasts

we can only be transient in others

So if its all destined to fade

why not open the shudders

let the sun in a bit

watch it burn down the shade
