Out of whack

LIKE ONE PERSON OUT OF WHACK

There lies consciousness

Who says it must be something one thing or anything

It could be many things

Like forms or substances or wind that goes we know not where

It could everything and we expressions

But who knows who cares

I mean what comes first with a scientist

a preacher or a callow youth or confused nun reject

We all have jobs to do no time to ask if

this mysterious thing is just substance of the brain

and we hallucinate the things we claim

lies past this inner apparatus

That sweet surmise keeps our current house in order

N’est-ce pas?

Exempted from the need to think

We shrink into our comfort zones and play charades

Consciousness is only in the mind

It does not go beyond

And everything we see is square in place

And when we die we get a coffin or a burn

or well it doesn’t matter

It’s the end

+

We think short term

The only trouble is this would evaporate

if one strange happening proved not amenable

to this declension

like one person acting as though this was all entirely wrong

+

A hopefully helpful progression for initial writing, posting, sharing and expanding, video creation. And at the end of the line, selling/archiving of texts and maybe even “monetization”.

Commaful. Twitter. Here. YouTube. Kindle.
