Fourteen

Fourteen

A Mad Max thru mystery;
if I know what and why,
like in Martyrs, I'd die.

Retrofit, honky-rig,
I pull a fractal out of a hat,
words, words, science, sciences:

I walk home alone like when I was in school.

There's something here, I think I like it best when you are having fun. The last line is surprisingly poignant/wistful.

[rowens]

There is nothing but fun.

That is what I'm here to say. I discovered that I never had a soul; that what is usually felt to be a psyche is a hall of mirrors, with other persons standing around and getting mixed in,
like the fly in The Fly.

Don't be fooled; this poem is posted in the For Fun section. But fun and pain are the same thing.

That's my mission: To show that there is no will, lust is pure, love is fear, ethics is an actual one of the Fates, and Fate doesn't mean things are planned.

Also: 13 is a number of a Daemon that stands for what I am. I can't do that on my own. Only neurotics believe in their own agency. Else they would be carefree not careless like me.
And Fourteen, obscurely playing off the title of a Big Star song, is more mainstreamly playing the 14th card in the tarot deck: which is a card about mixing things together to make art.

carefree-not-careless is one word

I'm definitely not letting you walk me home from school
