  • just jottings...madly inspired, wine-inspired, tossed here aside, raw and unfinished, to provide you an insight into my primitive mind...


    death as a participation in life: Lindburgh contemplating crashing into the sea: as immersement in the life of the sea.


    finding the endpoint of life within oneself as the measure of individuation.  but also a premature determination of the endpoint of life as oneself  as a form of modern social pathology.   This prematurity consisting of cutting the social ties prior to sanifying initiation  in a growingly complexifying society.  This society has increasingly blurred the distinction between freedom and adriftness;  and now increasingly casts out (hence, makes outcasts of) those who due to lack of supporting mechanisms (nurturing neighborhoods, initiating structures, individuating opportunities) waddle adrift in their search for democracy's promise of freedom.


    consider America's obsession with "dirt", i.e., the profane intimate lowdown on people's faults, frailties, and pathological proclivities as a measure inversely proportional to its genuine appreciation of the land as sacred, i.e., "dirt" as the source and return of life.  Signifying the obsession: the once willingness of media to contract with Oprah Winfrey, mistress of sensationalism,  1/2 billion dollars for 7 years of dirt digging.


     Nature as love's absorption.  Nature as the organic charcoal filter to social and mental delusions.  Potential and seeming synchronicity as a strictly personal truth (unshareable) unless the touch, the expression, and the relationship is unambiguously established.


      this thought: act like the world owes you something and it will abandon you forthwith; act like you have something to give the world and it will quite likely embrace you like an only child.


    The current media-hyped cultural expression of American femininity as a sham; the concurrent media-hyped cultural expression of American masculinity as a concomitant sham--co-conspirators in shamdom.
