Enigma
I’m an optimistic nihilist
A humanitarian misanthrope
An inconvenient servant
Anesthetised to sensation
Bored with excitement
Harmoniously incongruent
Schadenfreudenly masochistic
Proud of my incredible humility
I get along with people who
Don’t get along with each other
A contrarian’s contrarian when
I don’t even agree with myself
Having a penchant for entropy
Watching greatness arise
From scattered ashes
“I enjoy chaos and disorder – not just because they help me professionally – they’re also my hobby. You see, I’m an entropy fan.
When I first heard of entropy in high school science, I was attracted to it immediately.
When they told me that in nature, all systems are breaking down, I thought: What a good thing! What a good thing!
Perhaps I can make some small contribution in this area myself.
And of course, it’s not just in nature, in this country, the whole social structure… just beginning to collapse, you watch; just beginning now to come apart at the edges and the seams and the thing I like about that is that it means it makes the news on television more interesting, makes the television news more exciting, makes it more fun.”
– George Carlin
Whether one watches the news or not
We are here right now for the experience
The reality perceived is neither
Concrete, permanent, or recorded
That alone could change everything
To understand that, as Bill Hicks said
“There is only this moment.”
To be aware of a moment
In the moment, knowing
The next moment is
Just a moment away
While the last one
Was literally and figuratively
A moment ago
“Don’t fight the Matrix,
Experience it.”
– Angelo Devlin
