balance and my extra vertebrae
12/30/2005
Everything is always polar. But only half of the time.
We are so in balance that it causes us to be out of balance.
One man’s heartbeat is another man’s time bomb.
I need trees and nature like some people honestly think they need malls and stop lights.
I have an extra vertebrae and exclude myself from the human race. But I cannot excuse myself from it. I have participated in its destructive habits and cycles. I have fed the monster and turned the gears. I have produced more waste than anything else. My actions have at times disgraced humanity. I have at times supported the thing I was condemning in others. Therefore, I am no different.
To change the world we must first change ourselves. To change ourselves we must first change the world we feed directly off of. So which comes first? Oh, brother! I see it so clearly. A chicken. An egg. Another stupid invention like Styrofoam. Couldn’t we have kept it to ourselves?
We’re fucked and helpless, but I admire your hope.
