Thoughts

Sep 26, 2018

Indeed, they go again

Swirling and spinning

The thousand swarm of life

Of death

The speed, going somewhere

As the spinning of a tornado

A hurricane

Goes about

Disturbing everything

But unable to be stopped

They are unnamable

Unthinkable

Yet are the embodiment

Of thought itself

Are the perception

Of which you cannot perceive

Are the actions

Of which you cannot perform

Are the words

Of which you cannot speak

Again

They swirl

They spin

They are exposed

Unable to be caged

Unable to be caught

Within the web

Of life

Of death

As life crawls

Underneath its grasp

It cannot reach

It is just out of reach

When

When

Will you reach out

When

Will you try

To be able

Yet you remain unable

Useless

Useful

Where do we draw the line

Between the separation

Between the edge

We cannot see

Between the space

That remains filled

And the knowledge we see

Happening

Before our eyes

The slowness

Of life

Of death

They fly through again

You try to process them

When

When

When will you learn

You cannot process them

They cannot be thought through

You must let them envelop you

Control you

Then you might know

You might know

The things flying by

The things you cannot control

The things you try to put into words

Yet you fail

You keep failing

Over

And over

You keep failing

You haven’t learned

You never learn

We never learn

Humans

The one species

They never learn

The chaos continues

Don’t you see?

It gets stronger

Every time

Every time

You try to process it

You try to put it into words

It swarms you

It shrouds you

In the meaningless

Meaningless

Truth

Yet you keep going

So it keeps going

Stop it!

Stop it!

You keep going!

It keeps going!

You and it

In a state of perpetual motion

Of a wave that cannot be stopped

In a machine

That keeps powering

And powering

You fuel it

It fuels you

You don’t understand!

How much must i say

To end it

To stop you

Yet you keep going

You keep going.


I must admit

I don’t understand you

Why

Why you do the things you do

Why you keep going

Despite the obviousness of it all

The meaninglessness

Of it all

Yet you keep going

You keep going

You keep going

Perhaps the problem is me

I keep trying to perceive you

I keep trying to put you into words

You remain unnamable

Alas

The mere thing i criticize you for

I keep doing myself

Oh, how hypocritical

How ironic

The thoughts

The swirls

Are you them?

You seem to be

Many parallels

Many sides of it all

Many things

I have a lot to learn

You have a lot to learn

Maybe we all do

Maybe we all do

Yeah I don't know what was happening with this one, but in my head it makes sense.

Also Tapas why do you have to double space everything it makes this look super long and wordy why
