This is evolution.This is evolution. This is our creation. Take a bullet, kiss it sweetly, pray for divine justice and shoot to kill. The crucible is born in the archaic fires of history as the plagued horse rides from the west. Beneath the stars of untainted skies we march, divisions formed from the mass, we the good soldier. The hellfire of sin shall be cleansed by this crusade of the right. Like the old gods we shall condemn with impunity, our whore of worship shall bequeath herself to the needy while good men hang from the messiah’s noose.  
 
To the young we give our egotistical malice, to the old our undisputed pride, to the future we give This is evolution.

Twilight.       A solemn numbness rests within his limbs. Shoulders sloughed and lead light curtains draped over glass eyes. Shifting figures run past frayed memories in the attic while below him, the machine crumbles upon itself. A soft lamp bathes his skeletal hands as the fibre  optic wiring system bleeds the last electricity in the machine. The fuel depot  sifts through the last of the stock, rust expiring upon itself into shades of  dust. The corrosion of the passages, long green with age, heave their last as one  by one the system begins its shutdown, the respective terminals of data blink & Twilight.

The death of the Chimera.Is this my death? Somewhere around me a fire is crackling… twisted metal, burnt rubber. My eyes are closed, I don’t want to open them. Someone is screaming. If it weren’t for the acrid stench in my nostrils I would no doubt assume I was dead… but am I dying? I realise my right eye is closed not of choice but obliged by swelling, my left however is not… I open it. Everything is shaded and indistinct… someone is screaming. I turn my head to the right, my neck stiff and pained as some form of clarity returns. I see feet. Running feet, people running towards me. I search my mind… but nothing is forthcoming. A lady is kneeling over me… soft auburn The death of the Chimera.

Alone in Apathy at 11:54pm.i don’t want to be lonely, i just want to be alone. Why is the ‘i’ so insignificant when not capitalised? Captivated by a dream, in the late monitor glow, i sit with port and music in tow. Afore me lays the future, whatever may come may come and willingly i must embrace it. But no fear, no thrill of impending change, just a sure footed calm of acceptance. Resigned to fate and deed the mountain top holds such a lone bounty. What is the price of a shy smile flickered in gleeful embarrassment?, having embraced that which they desire – as the pilgrims of Shakespeare so did upon the balcony of fair Capulet, what coin can purchase?

"Ransom notes keep falling out your mouth.
Mid-sweet talk, newspaper word cut-outs.
Speak no feeling, no I don't believe you.
You don't care a bit. You don't care a (You don't care a) bit.

Oh no, You don't care a bit.
Oh no, You don't care a bit.
Oh no, You don't care a bit."

Tired and de-motivated. University has its uses, but once you've moved beyond the grade, moved beyond a room a place and a quest, it becomes futile and irrelevant. This is how i feel about most of my fellow "students" and "lecturers". the former 90% don't care, the later 50% are incapable by their positions as "lecturers" of giving and having a meaningful conversation: restricted to "the" topic, restricted to the capacities of the rest of "the students".

It's frustrating really. Knowing the people in your tutorials and lectures don't comprehend, passively accepting, passively acting, passively living. It's saddening. That most of these people - supposedly the "bright" and the "beautiful" are meant to lead the country I live in into some teleological and abstracted future of progress.

I do not want to tolerate them. I do not want to respect these social norms of courtesy in their presence. They just do not comprehend. It is not that I do not care for them per se, it is that i do not care for their opinated self interest. They proclaim injustice yet wear iPods and use mobile phones, they advocate the poor yet still buy wholeheartedly into neo-Liberal values of life. I do these things as well, but I am aware of them and am trying to change them, i understand I am a hypocrite and a liar - i understand this. But they are so hooked on "the" truth and obtaining such follies.

hide and seek i guess. I may as well toy with these "bright young things" for a semester yet and have myself some fun - luring and baiting.

evening to all for now.

THIS IS A HUG CERTIFICATE!

Send one to all your friends who you think deserve a hug (which, hopefully includes the person who sent it to you)!!

You might send it to your enemies as well!
It'll really make them stop and think!!!

If you don't receive this back, nobody likes you, and they wish you'd stop bugging them!


If you receive this back 1 time, open up! Find more friends, enemies, or enemies pretending to be friends

If you receive this back 2 times, you're off to a good start! (Unless you sent it to yourself! That's cheating!)

If you receive this back 3 times, you're a good friend.

If you receive this back 4 times, you're truly loved as a friend!!

Imperfection is the key...thus perfection doesn't exist, only perhaps in the simple minded. Happiness, the ultimate goal, can be achieved in several different ways. It all depends on your outlook on life itself...

P.S. You are freaking awesome!!:D

Keep On Trying...
