Taco Bell Wizard

the mind is a stage

from the ghetto

into paradise

back into chaos

pursue this further

you will see 

good is defined by evil

or is it evil is defined by good?

we will see

always eventually 

we do see

how from the light

we define darkness

far across time

burned inside the mind

buried deep below the stage

something hard to remember

still harder to forget,

how the angel inside you

it is also a demon

what it is that you seek

is it defined by what repels you?

I love this. I particularly liked 'something hard to remember/even harder to forget.' That's a succinct and accurate description of the human mind when it comes to matters of great importance. I'm not sure if it was purposeful or not, but I picked up on a calling on Hegel's dialectic (a thing or concept needing both of their possible states to emerge), which prompts a new sort of appreciation for all things.

[Davidgeo]

The Hegel thing wasn't purposeful. At least not on purpose. I'm glad you liked the remember/forget line. That's the best part

I love how it moves between chaos and clarity, light and darkness, exploring the duality within the mind. The free-flowing structure mirrors the internal struggle beautifully, making it both thought-provoking and immersive.

Everything not doing mathematics defines 'clarity' subjectively. Humans do math but, it's not good math. We are a dirty species. Ants are better at existence.

I suppose it's as if every little parchment of fraility(an anachronism of sin)metamorphose into something immortal. The cremate of the "soul" might as well as be syntax for ameliorative succumbtions of the heart( or the subconscious, whatever you wanna call it).
Materialism as sin.
Sexuality as sin.
To put it all in a chest and sit on top of it.

This poem is very insightful David, very philosophical.

Sometimes I smoke too much grass and/or eat too many edibles and watch the lord of the rings or read the simillarion etc... and I stuff like this comes out. It's usually really, really bad. This one seemed passable though... like, it wasn't that weird.

[Davidgeo]

I think I was also under the influence of bill shakespeare... "the mind is a stage" oh how original of me right?

[Degare]

Nah, I felt this was written very well and we can't blame ourselves just because some old gods loved to spew universal truths in their tragedies.

[Davidgeo]

Why thank you. I'm glad you had a good time. This pleases me a great deal degare.

Stare ahead long enough
Empty your mind
Empty your soul
Give it time
The saliva drools from your open mouth
Your sense of self control
Gone.

Davidgeo, I believe you are a genius!
After the order of Bukowski who wrote what everyone thought but nobody dared write it!
David, we are good and evil combined.
The serpent "wholly beguiled Eve".
I love your works!
And your comments!

I've been watching too many lord of the rings content. And token on that pipe weed a little too strongly of course. I'm like a really tall hobbit on steroids.

I don't know why this site leaves two reviews of the same thing sometimes when I reply. Probably because I have brought shame upon Gondor in the past.

[Ms claws]

I remember Eternity said you gave the site "less than a year"...Then it began to implode! Somehow it survived! Davidgeo, I think Eternity would have missed you most of all!

[Davidgeo]

Oh you remember that she said that do you? It's wild how it somehow survived. Must of been some of that good grace from everyone's favorite Taco Bell Wizard in the sky.

[Ms claws]

Davidgeo, I have SIX f*****g SISTERS! Do you have any idea how insane that is?
I freaking love you because of ETERNITY;s stories of you! STOP BEING SUCH A GLOOM & DOOM!

[Ms claws]

WELL

[Davidgeo]

I have three sisters. It was a good time but, chicks be crazy yo.

[Ms claws]

"Chicks Be Crazy Yo" ...I love you! You never let anything bring you down. Yep.chicks be crazy.
