"Let us settle ourselves...

Copyright Bootlegcircus@blogspot.com

after living indoors now for
a few months
i can see why there are so many
neurotic people
living in close proximity to other
people seems to have a
deleterious effect on ones grasp
of reality
and when one is subjected to
television also
reality seems to consist of
more food
more house
more sex
more
more
more

perhaps i will survive
until i can relocate
once again
into a more
suitable
wilderness
environment
with
less
less
less

"Let us settle ourselves, and work and
wedge our feet downward through the
 mud and slush of opinion, and prejudice,
 and tradition, and delusion, and appearance,
that alluvion which covers the globe,
through Paris and London, through
New York and Boston and Concord,
through Church and State, through poetry
 and philosophy and religion, till we come
 to a hard bottom and rocks in place,
 which we can call reality, and say,
 This is, and no mistake."      
 Henry David Thoreau  "Walden"
