| The Black Box |
[Wednesday April 2005|01:06pm] |
Black Box shuts me in,
Eats me up with small grey teeth.
Static interferes with normal communication.
Saw through the bones of my neck
with wire gnawing.
Crammed my head inside til I was stuck
with no air,
til all I could breathe was sick, fat smoke
drowned in White Noise.

The colours of the meaningless crap I surround myself with,
overcome and drown me in a mass of magazines, papers,
clothes and DVDs.
I am drowning in a world of mediocrity, in a flashing Technicolor void.
Filled to the brim with advertisements and “how to live your life” T.V.
I’ve curled up and hidden
Under the white blanket where you won’t find me
I’ve lost the manner and voice
That everyday used to live with me
I’ve crammed my mouth full of clichés
And when I speak it won’t be me.
If only I could strip my mind of all the meaningless structures
It has acquired and open the door to the universe.
If only I could let the fluid run through my mind like a river
And wash out the everyday.
I have been shelved and neatly put away, labelled for quick reference.

the info for this community says to post some obscure thoughts.
I’m insane and am perfectly aware of this.
this is kind of long and it was written at 4 am on a lot of adorol. I just wanted to throw some sort of connection out to the world just to learn who relates.
Here’s my soul all you complete strangers out there.

Whilst browsing though my book on Avant Garde Art, I came across a painting I had copied for my class last year. Well, when I turned the page I saw that the Cabaret Voltaire was mentioned. And I thought of this community and decided to join. Hurrah!
Heres the painting I copied. Marc Chagall's Anywhere Out of the World

| love letters |
[Sunday December 2004|08:18pm] |
I am creating a found objects art creation *specatcular* sculpture made out of ribbons, broken glass and love letters.
The only problem is that I am in need of love letters.
If any of you have any to donate, it would be much appreciated!!!!
Good way to let go of the past and let it be made into something beautiful!

I speak with several voices because I am an artist. An artist is essentially a channel, a filter, the wide open end of a trumpet through which Reality plays it's haunting melodies.
'The music goes around and around and it comes out here.'
Touch me. Go on... I don't bite.
There, you feel that? That's potency. That's Raw Untamed Might.
Now touch yourself. Don't worry, nobody is watching.
"I AM."-The Watcher
You feel THAT? That's all yours, baby. You are the dictator of your body. But that's not all. Tell them what else they've got!
Announcer: That's right! You also have an unlimited capacity for storage and a potential just waiting to be tapped.
Tell us more about this potential.
We can experience profound change and influence radical change in the world around us.
Why would anyone want to?
Because. We are forces of nature like rain, volcanoes, and supernovas. Some forces nurture and other wither. When you are open to the will of the directing forces, you may find this terrifying power unleashed in astonishing ways.
Oh really. And what, exactly, can I expect these 'terrifying powers' to do?
What does any power do? Moves pieces, takes pieces, and calls new games into play.
Don't underestimate yourself though. Through determination and saliva, the ant devours the elephant.
"Oh good." you say. "So can look forawd to eating enelephant."
Maybe. But only if you find a truly tasty elephant that makes your mouth water. You need that saliva.
"Yes but my saliva doesn't contain formic acid like ants."
It's just a metaphor. Okay?
People rarely excede their expectations, and yet we typically act far below our potentials.
The thing, then, to do is want more. Don't be content. DON'T be complete.
Make a plan. Be ready.

This is a reply to the last entry, but I figured since I wanted to ramblel, I'd post it separate. I was raised hardcore Catholic but I no longer beleive in anything. I really think people do need a religion though or you lose your sanity. It doesn't matter if it's classified as such, I just think you need something to base your life around, whether it's your own ideals or a religions. I've been thinking a lot recently (and smoking a hell of a lot too so I feel introspective) about death and living. death is exciting because you don't know what it's going to be like. when you die, it's proven your brain releases so many endorphins that you die in a state of ecstacy. so if the theory that your death is a continuation of your state of mind at time of death, it's fucking creepy. The thought that my thoughts might keep thinking once my body's shut down scares the shit out of me. I've been thinking a lot about just plain living recently too, and it's scary to realize how fucking alone we each are. No matter how well you know someone, there's always that darkest section of your brain you tell no one about, the thoughts that drive you to seek rushes just to not know that part of you. To be confronted with that, with no escape, when you die will drive you to insanity. Maybe that's the point of life, creating a mind stable enough, having enough memories, to keep you entertained throughout enternity. Then you just wait for the end of eternity and there's another mystery. It drives me close to insanity sometimes, just having this continuous run of thoughts in my head and it all goes back to the cliche "what is the meaning of life?" and don't answer 42. :). I can't figure out the pointt but sometiems the feeling fo insignificance really scares me. does anyone ever just think themselves round in circles like this utnil you mentally scream to drown it out until you can breathe again? when you think to hard about it, you stop beleiving an anything I've found.
I'd love to hear feedback.. Thanks!

I've been really confused lately..about religion and whatnot. I'm just curious as to what all of your takes on religion are. Not just Christianity or whatever, and even if you don't believe in a God, where do you go after you die? Do you just rot in the ground and that's that? Is there nothing to live for? If not, why not just go kill people if it makes you happy?
Also, the concept of "one." There isn't really a true "one unit" of something because everything can be broken down more and more... but if you have a piece of rope and you continuously cut it in half over and over again you'll never stop? If you do stop, and there is a limit, then motion isn't real. To get from one place to another, you travel half that distance twice. If there is a limit to how small something can be....you're not going to move. Does anyone have any clue as to what I'm trying to say?
uhhhhh

hello hello cabaretmates! how have you been? i haven't heard from you in quite a while. i hope you are doing most excellently; life is a grand thing these days after all.
"...we are all representatives of our communities..."
i was with a group of people today, a bunch of strangers that soon became good acquaintances to me, and this phrase really stuck in my head. "whoa, i'm part of a community," i thought. well duh, of course everyone's part of some kind of community--the wierd thing though was that i never thought about myself in that way...
i know who i am, but who is my community?
what is my community?
how did i get to be a part of it?
what is my niche in my community?
what do we do as a community?
questions like these flew across my head on the ride home. how odd it is to suddenly realize that you've been a part of something all this time yet completely unawares of it.
so i challenge you: share with me about your community. answer my questions about yourself. so maybe you and your friends dont go to the soup kitchen every sunday to feed the poor, or go bowling every friday night or whatever. i want to know anyway!
community sounds like such a big word, like something completely outside of yourself and your environment, but actually, it IS about you and your environment! what a strange concept.

As a prolific author, Chopra has been able to reach millions of people, teaching them about Ayurveda and spiritual health. In his best selling book, Ageless Body, Timeless Mind , Chopra invites his reader to imagine a time when disease and aging and the deterioration of the environment are no longer inevitable. In order for this to become a reality, the reader is asked to follow Chopra's Ten Keys to Happiness . Briefly, these include:
(1) Listen to your body's wisdom.
(2) Live in the present, for it is the only moment you have.
(3) Take time to be silent, to meditate.
(4) Relinquish your need for external approval.
(5) When you find yourself reacting with anger or opposition to any person or circumstance, realize that you are only struggling with yourself.
(6) Know that the world "out there" reflects your reality "in here."
(7) Shed the burden of judgement.
(8) Don't contaminate your body with toxins, either food, drink, or toxic emotions.
(9) Replace fear-motivated behavior with love-motivated behavior.
(10) Understand that the physical world is just a mirror of a deeper intelligence. (14)
In Journey Into Healing: Awakening the Wisdom Within You , Chopra offers some inspiring thoughts which he believes will help the reader find peace within oneself, with the objective, once again, that what one thinks and feels can influence one's health. These thoughts include:
(1) When the mind is peaceful, inner energies wake up and work miracles for us.
(2) The use of love is to heal.
(3) Happiness radiates like the fragrance from a flower and draws all good things toward you.
(4) Healthy people live in the present.
(5) An intimate relationship allows you to be yourself.
(6) Accept what comes to you totally and completely.
(7) When life is full, it is only love, and when awareness isfull, it brings only love.
(8) Your mind gives you control.
(9) Health is not just the absence of disease, it is an inner joyfullness.
(10) Enchantment is our natural state.
(11) Attend to your own inner health and well being.
(12) Allow your love to nourish yourself as well as others. (15)
Success in life, according to Chopra, can be defined as the continued expansion of happiness and the progressive realization of worthy goals. In his book, The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, Chopra lists these seven laws . Succinctly, they are as follows:
(1) Law of Pure Potentiality
(2) Law of Giving
(3) Law of Karma or Cause and Effect
(4) Law of Least Effort
(5) Law of Intention and Desire
(6) Law of Detachment
(7) Law of Dharma or Purpose in Life (16)

is anyone here familiar with the philosophies of deepak chopra, particularly that stuff in the first numbered list? i want to know what other people think of him. are there alot of people out there that agree with what he says? are there alot of people that think he's got his loincloth on too tight?
i wonder how true his truths can be. i would like to subscribe to them, but a part of me cannot allow me to accept them because it thinks these chopra-isms are a bit lofty, wishywashy, idealistic.
let's get schooled here.
