Originality is sin

I've relised that the last 15 minets of my life were my first breaths, first thoughts, and first smiles. I have read many books, and i have seen many film canisters burn out in there last seconds of 'spot-lit' freedom. But until that moment, I had not even begun to live.

It wasnt love, drugs, rock & roll, or any of the usual suspets who brought me to this clarity. No, it was something more sinister. Unpredicted, because it itself IS unpredictible. The culpret? depretion. The sexyest of all mental conditions. The one all the boys want, and all the girls have.

My long standing 'illness' has led me to this realisation. That i am not anything spetial. And that i am infact just another number to be counted and tallied when my time comes. Now, i've always THOUGHT this was true. I even THOUGHT I KNEW it was true. But It never sunk in until moments ago. I understand my revalation may seem rather elementry to you. But thats just the point, there are no new ideas and even that is an old idea, and even this is an old idea. Originality is the only sin, because it defies the world around us.

The real beauty of this truth (lie) is that I (you) dont need to have anyone agree with me (ever) to relise I'm right (i'm always right). It's like a game of late night basketball with your big brother where the only rule is he wins. Its fool poof in its simplisity (over exagerated underestimated garbage). The point is that, there is no point.

I love life (i hate it)
I love love (when it sucks my dick)
and I love my newly found.....emotions.

    Good to see you surface every now and then. :)

    There was a tree there
    A tree of knowledge
