04. Hall of Exes

the words wrench the same in reading them now,
as they must have before.
it’s easy to remember why I kept them, less easy to remember where I found them.
the internet reminds me the quote’s Bukowski,
and I know the shelf.

he was the one who said he loved me
that I didn’t believe.
so I lied,
and said ‘I love you, too.’

the fear is in the fall;
I wonder,
what’s worse:
waking up alone,
or next to someone,
knowing you’re alone?

17. Shadows and Synchronicities, the directors of fate, once accepted, have the power to open the connection between the individual and the collective unconscious, essentially lifting the veil between will and want.

“And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.” (Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist)

The challenge is in accepting that we always get what we want, even when it does not look like what we had originally hoped. The tragedy is in accepting this as failure rather than do the work of re-examining the true nature of your own desires.

16. To be the loop, or break the loop, that is the question. Either/Or the mind must suffer, the heart must ache, in order to understand that in being is to break, and in breaking is to be; Everything else is chaos and patterns in the white noise.

14. Even when the fires stop, the world still burns. We’re all responsible, what flames do you feed?

A favorite of mine. Purged from my brain between those nebulous hours just before sunrise. I remember having wasted an entire day on some tortured concepts that I just couldn’t figure out how to polish. Around 2AM I was determined I could make neon work, but only after a few hours of sleep. Woke up at 5AM with a variation of this concept in mind.
