being as i am an idiot, and having been one my whole life, i just wanna say that i find it very easy to do nothing, and go nowhere. i eat chocolate late at night in the dark. i stand in the garden also. and i’m often waiting for something to happen. and i’m stupid.
Did you know,
that if a tree falls in a forest
with no-one to hear it,
it does not make a sound?
It is not philosophy,
it is physics.
I won’t try to explain the science
except to say:
Did you know,
that if a heart trembles,
shudders,
contorts,
f r a c t u r e s,
with no-one to hear it,
to acknowledge it,
to heal it,
to love it,
it does not make a sound?
Did you know,
that sadness,
gone unheard,
unseen,
ignored,
(and ultimately)
unknown,
turns back in on itself?
( purple blemishes
on smooth palms,
alcohol shriveled livers,
nicotine stained fingers,
midnight circles
under moonlight eyes,
porcelain smiles
and pillow cries. )
Did you know,
that if a heart
pumps blood,
into a body that nobody
cares for,
treasures,
protects,
that heart
will cease to pump blood
at all?
Did you know,
that silence,
absence,
distance,
ambivalence,
kills?
