Had sometime just now to sit down and do a stream of consciousness piece, which happens to be the Meeting The Bar prompt over at D'Verse, where the talented Victoria is hosting the pub.

lingering around the black harvest of this fruitless vine and then another
connection will form, and the repercussions of tomato insects will burrow
through the veritable vegetation and it’s unenviable momentary state of squish

something undermines the mind as the miserable little children throw barbs and
airplanes from their soiled seats of wood, connected like they’ll walk away
desks of education, little brats that berate because they’ve been told their
entire life that they are upper crust, elite, bread winners for society, they
are the future, and everyone owes them something, we are their walking boards
their mats upon the muddy road, or perhaps they act in such despicable
mannerisms because they overcompensate for the feelings of what happens when
they go home, they either believe the berating’s they receive are but normal
transparency or they are just vicious little kids, learning the power of hate,
so they then transfer that information to those who want no part of the matter,
and these are the teachers, these are the masters of the educational wars, these
are those with most influence these are those who teach you hate from an early
age
Something,
yes those types of things you never forget, they simple blossom into a
festering wound that simply eats a little more of your soul into until you are
one big powder keg with a lit fuse ever following you along until one day, one
day whenever, now, later, now and later, juicy hard on teeth but then zen,
nothing left, but that fuzzy place between air and earth and walking quickly we
see the stars that could have been taking a tour, like those Christmas tales,
where one person realizes how different things would be without his or her ever
coming to be in the first place and by knowing how miserable others would be,
you understand that your misery is reasonable, might as well be a martyr for
the rest of civilization and all the great people you help spawn, just because
you are able to withstand the brutality place upon you but inconsiderate and
self-scared little children in grown up shoes, walking a sidewalk meant to
still be grassy fields, where a house was would have been a little lake for
grazing cattle to feed upon, enjoying the nice sunny sky and the whispering of
the breeze….it’s still here, but it no longer whispers, yet yells and screams
all damn night, and in the dreams of thought, I often pray I’d see only light,
but awake to realize another day and another night is yet to come, on the
docket, all lined up for whatever is tossed at you, then, perhaps you relish in
this thought, perhaps one day you’ll own that deflector shield and watch the
tables turn and the fortunes realign and understand the pane of glass that ever
seems cracked but never breaks completely not until someone shoves their
entirety at forces too fast to imagine breaking into little shards scattering
all over the carpet, laying there in wait for unsuspecting naked feet to step
on them, only knowing what has happened until they are at that point where a
bloody mass now stillborns itself out from under souls of toes, trapped in a
glass house with only bricks to throw and then and then and then and then we
can hope these thens then come to become other then not other thans

Wow quite the ramble indeed today at your feed. Things sometimes just come and go together in all kinds of weather and one never does see how they truly meld as one until some day it pops in under the sun, really freaky it can be, to have such a thing happen at ones sea.

ReplyDeleteWow, the cascade came to a roar here for me, the whole piece like and avalanche an all you have time for is that moment to cup your hands in front of your face praying for a pocket of air that outlasts the hypothermia. Is anyone going to find the beacon? Excellent work!
Whew! I hope this road map had something written on it saying "This way is UP" LOL
ReplyDeleteThis was quite the ramble Fred, and yet, it all made sense throughout it. I especially liked the kids thinking nowadays that the world owes them a living, instead of being bought up to wonder what they can contribute to it.
What a write, what a read! What a stream of thought :)
Fred, I soooo want to hear you read this.
ReplyDeleteRead your post on NWCU (Roger shared it on FB). Maybe I'm dense (like switching and & an in my comment, oops) but didn't see anywhere to comment. While I don't always see eye to eye on your politics/philosophy I am saddened to hear about Cocoa. I will pray. I'm very sorry he is sick.
ReplyDeleteThanks Anna. It's good to hear that people will be praying for him, he really is such a good cat, the news really shook me as it was completely unexpected when he first started getting sick, especially seeing he still wants to play his shadow chasing game every morning (there's a video on my sqwerm page and it's also on youtube if you wanted to watch him chase shadows, put it up there a while ago) so I'm crossing my fingers that the vet was wrong or that a miracle shall come about. Yeah that high quality blog pages google's gone too, it is hard to find the comment spot, so don't feel "dense" you are the furthest thing from that:) Thanks again, means a lot to me knowing he'll be in your prayers.
DeleteFred, the form of this just screams perfect for S-o-C poetry: unpunctuated, narrative, block paragraphs. Makes me want to try the same--I bet it would thrill a shrink. I love it!!!
ReplyDeleteoh heck, your stream of consciousness feels a bit like wildwater rafting..creating vortexes and flowing together...wow..
ReplyDeletehaha i love all the mash up words....smiles...this was a wicked ride man...it is an easy thought in this but the nod to a wonderful like and its ilk, i feel you through there man and in the end. some dreams just take time to decypher...
ReplyDelete"you are one big powder keg with a lit fuse ever following you along until one day, one day whenever, now, later, now and later, juicy hard on teeth but then zen, nothing left, but that fuzzy place between air and earth "
ReplyDeleteThat is incredible.
