(lack
of originality, everywhere, all over the world, from time immemorial, has
always been considered the foremost quality and the recommendation of the
active, efficient and practical man – dostoyesky)
she
had majored in philosophy
i
thought it would be interesting
to
talk
but
then she asked,
“if
you find something
was
it ever lost?”
(the
problem is not suffering itself or oblivion itself but the depraved
meaninglessness of these things, the absolutely inhuman nihilism of suffering –
john green)
how
quickly do you think i walked away
negotiated
with nihilism
the
production of a one act play
where
the actor says
everything
there is to say
by
saying nothing
(life’s
but a walking shadow, a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the
stage, and then is heard no more; it is a tale told by idiots, full of sound
and fury, signifying nothing – shakespeare)
another
beer in i grin
listen
to the din of the party
leave
to buy some bacardi
walk
the streets, drink
and
think about the ball bearings
in
roller skates at a roller rink
because
no thought is on the brink
of
saving our solitude from ourselves
(everything
is nothing, including the consciousness of nothing – e. m. cioran)
