With Respect to Nothingness

With Respect to Nothingness

A Poem by delapruch
"

stop pretending & begin living freely

"

in infinite regress he will twitch

if you ask him where his loving god lives

if you ask him why

this character personally gives a s**t

about the sad little worries of

any

1

pubic &

pathetic

person

praying

 

the rational & sane can assume that a place before the

first 3 minutes

a place with many yet unanswered questions

will not go unanswered for long

for just as we once thought there to be witches & warlocks & dragons & goblins

only to find through facile study that

absolutely all of these ridiculous creations

were produced out of fear and the need to keep people in line

we will find that god

the

father

almighty

did not create the earth

because like elmo, inspector gadget, the tele tubbies, mo from the simpsons, and

brian from family guy

(just to give a few examples)

he was/is/will be found to be nothing but an animated

two-dimensional

rambling idea

that is no doubt the result of an exciting weeknight brain pool at the local pub

or dope house

 

this god

1 god

1 judeo-christian-islamic

big big big lie

will go the way of the dinosaurs that preceeded it soon enough

and even better still

all those who are still trudging along as part of that ancient generation

the one which still thinks that

homosexuals should never be together &

that women should not be able to decide what to do with their own bodies &

that priests have every right to rape little boys in the name of fiction

etc.

etc.

etc.

well,

they will all be dead too

with no more say in the matter

 

evolution of the mind like that of the physical body gives preference to those ideas that further the positive development of our species

 

with respect to nothingness

that hole that can never be filled

which has kept these long abusive fictions alive for so long

it can be seen in a different light

with the emphasis on family, friendships, and

those faces

those beautiful voices

whose love is evident in its real time

existence

wherein we all laugh & cry and make the best of our lives as we see fit

amongst all those

mammals &

insects &

ocean life &

flora, etc.

which dwell here with us together

 

we have no need to give credit to anything else

for our ability to survive here in this struggle

we have no need to pretend that there are better places that we will ascend to after our

very real deaths, which will make this one life that we have, worth living

we have no need for anything but each other

and after we let all these fictions expire

after they all run their course

we will be able to focus on the true progress of our species

without illusion

and without the need for that fictional father

who loves some and hate others

who is so insecure that it has to

command that we love only it

 

someday, sooner than later

the “kicking of the dead horse” will be over

and complete clarity will be all that remains

coloring the next morning

a day capable of anything
