So here it is...
I have travelled much,
seen many things ,
contractualy entangled,
emancipated, emaciated,
educated, desalinated,
reciprocated, cogitated,
manipulated and finally disheartened.
and I am no expert,
but no one is, not at the truth biz.
it’s a depressing endeavor,
the truth biz,
more wrong turns than right,
more black and shadow,
and not a lot of certainty,
and for what?
and for who?
and what in the end,
we have to show for all that torture?
well...
tone down your expectation,
you won’t get any E equals MC squares here.
not crisp equation,
that you can neatly,
put on a get well card.
in fact, for much that we can say,
us in the truth biz,
the more you try to shove things,
compacting, dismissing exceptions,
the more you stray.
perhaps this is what truth realy comes down to:
don’t expect to get a straight answer.
then again, in the truth biz,
we literaly wrote the book,
about generalization,
we generalize and stereotype the crap,
out of this universe,
it is mostly dark, you see?
and there are these shiny things?
stars! bingo.
i guess that in the truth biz,
we get a bit lazy sometimes.
it’s probably a cobtributing factor,
all those giants who lend us ,
nice shoulders to stand upon,
why, i’ll admit it,
we could’ve done a better job.
but that’s the bar that’s set here,
over here at truth biz,
you should see some of the bozos,
we got working on it,
but that’s what we get,
it ain’t pretty,
it’s sad and unsatisfying,
and we’ve pretty much,
just came around to the same conclusion, over and over.
so here it goes:
life is so-so. it isn’t good or bad,
it could be worse or better,
it comes to an end,
there’s some speculation,
about what comes next,
we’ll get back to you on that one.
so done with life.
next...do reality?
fine. gotcha.
reality is change,
it is constantly in flux,
if you caught a contradiction here,
so did Perminides, one of those giants..
so yeah, it’s all change,
but it's full of patrerns.
think of it as an endless roll of wrapping paper being pulled straight into a paper shredder.
right.
happiness?
well, you may find some,
although satisfaction is a fleeting moment.
though satisfaction is a fleeting momentis although satisfaction is a fleeting moment.oment.
and even if you get some,
it is not important,
in the grand scheme of things,
yeah, that’s right,
here in the truth biz,
we look at things on a cosmic scale,
at least sometimes..
god, my mouth is dry...
god. MY mouth is dry.
god...any questions?
great, well...the big guy,
he...she..well..yeah...
let’s tie it with reality, then:
the universe is in change,
and it is constantly being created,
it was not a one-off thing,
so god or the gods or the non-god ,
well..they’re busy..
death sucks for everyone,
except those,
that can’t wait for it to come,
but we don’t know,
if the next stage gets one star or five,
or zero.
zero...nothing comes from nothing,
what do you get? nothing!
oh, i’m sorry,
I got a flashback of ‘the life of Brian’.
always look on the...
look, i’m getting tired of this.
maybe this is part of the truth.
some guys over,
at the classics department,
say that everything is Logos,
or in other words:
everything has a deeper neaning.
crazy Greeks.
Logos...
oh..you liked legos when,
you were young?
why then and not now?
aren't you the same person?
i think you still do,
like Legos, i mean.
or you are possibly,
not the same entity, you recall.
it’s ok.
here in the truth biz ,
keeping true to yourself,
and not hiding things is a big thing,
analyzing things...
hey, i LIKE legos too.
i just feel bad,
that when you buy them today,
they come with a plan,
and in the end it looks so good,
that you don’t dare take it apart.
well..until some parts get lost,
and only then you start,
doing your own thing.
such is life , eh?
we make plans,
see our life on a nice track,
then the wheels start coming off..
i think you don’t want the truth.
you just want me to tell you,
it’s going to turn out great,
and give you advice,
about how to turn your life around.
you don’t care about the srars,
you don’t care about art,
you don’t care about love.
all you want is for me to be a ‘daddy’,
and figure EVERY thing out for you.
oh, and you want it to be,
an easy read!
go back to the start,
i made no claim that this,
is what i can give.
i’m sitting on a taxi now,
the website gives what i write,
all kinds of problems,
i’m dead tired and my day,
is just starting,
no amount of coffee,
is going to fill that hole.
you want the truth?
i can’t handle the truth!
i just can't!
it’s just a bug in the system,
a self-replicating annoyance,
that keeps popping up,
in my sleep deprived mind,
especially when it’s all gloomy,
which is why it often feels like a...
like a draining tub.
yeah.
the truth is a draining tub.
there! I quit!
