Hard Long Ugly...

By

    There's really no way around the hard, long, ugly... truth. And that itself, my friend, is the only reward making any of this at ALL bearable, because the hard way is the long way. And the long way is a lonely way. And let there be no doubt, if this way is your way, it is very much a fool's journey. And as every fool knows the more one needs of the truth, the longer and harder your struggle becomes. 

       Yet, in order to know if indeed this is your way, one must hang around longer than everyone else and wait and see, usually much, much longer. And quite often, long after those you once knew intimately and trusted are gone. And what idiot weighing those odds wouldn't need rationing those odds if they were ever  diminishing under the zero integrity marker? Can we answer a question with a question here? Can Hollywood's celebrity royalty in a pandemic be expect NOT to party? Because, I haven't seen another dick, besides my own, up close and personal for over six months. 

 Seriously, what the fuck.

     There are no shortages of terminology when you don’t need them. Yet, it has ALWAYS been apparent to me, when it comes to subtlety or shades of meaning between similar occurrences, ideas and/or concepts - their nature, implementation or needs of sanction can be worlds apart. The danger here should be implicit - yet is often absorbed into the negative space, itself, of a vocabulary so lacking. Often, these gaps between meanings and definitions, like the difference between say the theory and practice of Magick - can be used to an advantage, yet most often nefariously so. And for that example, we need step no further than the arena of our current day politics and the cry of ‘Socialism’ as a sham and shamefully misappropriated scare tactic. The false or incomplete idea of a thing once set in the mind of a population, will regardless of its practical purpose, occult ALL aspects of its functionality. And then the very word representing that thing, itself, is radically or re...

A Fore Thought...

       A writer's job is to tell the truth.       And it would seem here we run into problems right off the proverbial bat. The truth, as I see it, is just that––just as the truth you see––is true. Or true to you. The problem should be apparent. And if so, that's usually 51% of the battle. Yet, if one is still flailing without measurable success on grasping a sense of reality, and keen on denying me my own, then how do we sort this out? Perhaps a change in job description would help.      A writer's job is to relay only facts.      And if to whom those facts are relaid remain predisposed to the same tenants of rational discourse––any evidentiary finding of fact, by shear definition, is incontrovertible. So now it's case closed and problem solved, right? No? So, if it's NOT quite yet time to start singing, "Good-Night Irene" what then is the problem?      A writer's job is to understand the problem....
