Good question John. You cannot prove that one plus one equals two, you have to accept it.

Outside The Lines
Seek said:

I am all for living outside the lines and do so my self. Good to run into a kindred spirit. We have been stigmatized by sheeple. And that is the least of my worries. Enjoyed this! Thanks for sharing.

Jungle2
L. B. Mek said:

\'Where the
animals are.
All within.\'
we too readily assume
cos we\'ve learnt to dress and walk upright
we\'ve become civilised..
when in actuality, we - Humanity
is that apex Beast: ferocious enough
to hunt lions, for sport...
(a great write,
in your own unique style, dear poet)

Perception2

That \'limitless void\' has always been there but we exist as that pebble of reality in our lives.

Tweeners
L. B. Mek said:

\'Tweeners.
Dealing with
the animal
moving
toward the
thoughtful.
Tough passage.
Pushing,
pulling.
Moving
toward with
fits and starts.
Tough passage.\'
(I think its impossible to distil any better, what we\'ll be bequeathing our future generations)
insightful and masterfully succinct! as ever, dear poet

Programmers Brew
L. B. Mek said:

an infinite loop, procedural then?
good old pascal days, lol
yes, it does seem like we\'re in a Metrix that\'s a little, too much:
\'Complexity
begets
complexity!
All
programmed,
coded.
In the
beginning.
Set in
motion.
Evolution.\'
Only, that evolution part gone a bit off script, I think

Programmers Brew
Goldfinch60 said:

I used to be one of the cooks that created that brew when working in computing.

Frequency
L. B. Mek said:

...\'moments, of finite clusters
escapism in all-things cyclical
devoted, to a warped reality
that\'s busily curating, who we be;
creator\'s supreme, of mass devastation
in each step of hopeful, progression
mindset cultivation
to choose better, at every crossroad
and yet
we forget, to keep our eyes open
run roughshod
over every opportunity, while
looking back at antiquity
with judgemental eyes
asking
why: couldn\'t \'They\' be better
do, Better
fulfil the potential, awaiting
in each fingertip
of that poetry, they spew
in every - new, New beginning
they cling onto
so, very: despairingly...!\'
(great write
inspired me to drill and excavate
my own pitiful, attempt
at a continuation, of sorts)
thanks for sharing, dear poet

Wheel
John Prophet said:

Hi LBM,
thank you for reading.
“futility of cyclical
pseudo theoretic, worthless contemplations! “
Good for the soul, however!

Wheel
L. B. Mek said:

(great read, dear poet
your thought provoking writing, did it again
got me rambling, displaying that crazy, in me
I try to keep hidden)
gyrating wheels, imagery of the \'out of control\'
spatial clusters of lightyear distanced galaxies
as tilting disk spheres, are they - too, out of control?
a mass of happenstance, awaiting
that flick of chaotic chance
to explode, Proud
and unleash a new wave of life, so we don\'t feel
so alone?
either by accident or purposed, I ask honestly?
at this point, who the F\'k cares!
(if by design, obviously humanity is currently
too inept, to glean its meaning;
if by chaotic flux, then so be it!)
just, let\'s get on
with LIVING IT
(tick tock
tick tock
tick tock
that\'s that nock of belated realisation)
we\'re wasting existence
in our yearned escapism - futility of cyclical
pseudo theoretic, worthless contemplations!
