Spinoza's bagel

Post by stilltrucking » April 12th, 2014, 12:01 pm

A World of His Own™
where he is all powerful
over himself

A world where life never ends
death has no fear
and I am who I pretend to be
a chip off the old crazy block
to think I can change anyone's fate
even my own

in my own world
my life is a twilight zone
where love is enough
Hunter S. still exists somewhere
over Judy Garland and rainbows
and all the folks going to get together
any time now it has been
14 billion years of hard travellin
to get here
and I forgot what happened before that
before the bang
but after the whimper
but my memory is coming back
vivid memories of another universe before this one
when there is peace and plenty

and true love

i once
went to a party
like that
i was never the same again
but that was fine with me
see
i felt FREEEE- :mrgreen: 8)
reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---

a fine piece you've let escape from within, truck.
it must've felt good (and still does)...
