Man's Thought Machine Atop His Other Operations:
The mind is like a loudmouthed, obnoxious, and pretentious passenger riding
a bus...and with some question as to whether he actually paid for a ticket.

I stared at a movie,
then at a photograph,
then at a painting,
then at a blank wall,
not immediately recognizing that it was all
a matter of diminished sight and sound.

Flowers bloom from the outside in;
trees grow from the top down;
rivers flow from the bottom up,
and men discover their nature in an opposite direction.

One man's "Here's The Way I Do It":
I remember the future,
and plan the past.

A man asked a mystic, "Can you be both a poet and be awakened?"
And although the mystic did not reply, if he had, he would have asked the man,
"Can you drive a stock car while performing a circumcision?"

Forget about supernatural circumstances:
Everyone who has thoughts is "demon possessed."
...So, okay then, maybe being liberated is being able to drive in a NASCAR race while performing an exorcism.
