Like a teenager with headphones. But I’m 42... What happened? Did I become more susceptible to societal rules as I got older. I was all about the f_ck you’s of societal norms when I was younger, but now I seem to be focusing my middle finger on direct evil. I do believe the world has become increasingly evil, and that’s partially why “headphones”. Almost always this summer... Because toxic. Unsustainable. Unsurvivable. To do what modern day medicine does, silence the symptoms. Pharmaceutical: Headphones. Although I sometimes miss night walk sounds. Like crickets. Or the rare locust braving the high desert aridness. And almost every evening, the spiritual sound of coyotes. It’s... Magical. And I’m going to miss the happiness knowing when the sounds started (I used to note it in my “smartphone” calendar...) in the spring, and the heavy hearted feeling of knowing when it ended in the autumn (I used to note that too. When the silence started). And that nerdy love is why we have to agree... Because I still want to believe that all humans are capable to feel what I feel. But I’m also extremely cynical. Because I still haven’t seen what I want to believe in. And every second we’re cutting off our own life support. That’s how bad we are as humans. How the did the word humane even originate from us? Just goes to show what a complete, and utter fake biproduct we are of this earth. Where we may have been derived from, and could have done good, but didn’t... ... ... An earth of which we’re not worthy. Who’s the most intelligent species again?
We should all be kissing her feet. What, who’s? Mother Nature’s of course! COVID-19 may have an ace up her sleeve, but sometimes I secretly wish that she would have been all the more vicious, since this episode obviously wasn’t enough to curb the beasts that are us. And still we continue to spawn. Pandemic and all... Without ethics and moral ingrained... Where does this end?
