excuse my French

Post by revolutionR » December 4th, 2014, 2:36 am

I never forgot who I was, but I forgot everything else
I realized I was more who I was, when I forgot myself
amidst everything else, what i mean is a kind of elimination
of what is portrayed as the real world

If the so called real world is what is presented to us
by the media, then we are in deeper shit then we know
so it follows that in order to know what you don't know
it is necessary to step out of the box, think outside of it

there is no easy way to do this, one simply exists
and dare to exist, with all your fatal flaws, scars
bad habits, one exists and that is all there is to it
you are more or less the sum of all your parts

I don't need no stinking Descartes, no "I think, therefore I am"
Cogito, ergo, sum, sounds better in French then Latin anyway
Je pense, donc je suis, sounds more sexual, to my think
I don't think no fucking therefore, I am not so cock sure before
the fact of my being, I think because I exist, because I resist
categorical imperative is not me, I can't make it with Kant
and what's more I will not recant, I just cannot bare it

If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

it's all word play or word work.
some words work and some words play.
what works for you, what plays.
I work on it, so I can play.
