Well Lit Game's

A Poem by Davidgeo
"

.

"
learn to kill
without the murder

act without consequence
find death without sadness
expend time without purpose
try hard for nothing really

to consume meat
from the thin air
to hunt flesh
without the mess
to taste life sweet
without the sweetness

and become enlightened
without the substance

before light's
just electric

there's a shadow
whole and empty

yeah, there's something realli in this that I just cannot put my finger on - hmmm even attempting to articulate is not easy. i think lately for myself I have been pondering the 'swimming in the moments ' instead of plunging in the deep waters. Sometimes the deep watert get murky - sometimes on ejust needs to frolick in the shallow just for the heck of it. I've been diving too deep of late - and none the better for it. To kill without a murder - ahhhh - the act without the disraught afterthoughts - I wonder - do serial killers have self depraising afterthoughts? that's a tangent - butthat's where my head is that.

problem is, shallow waters can only let you paddle out so far - sometimes its goot to drown and resurface to feel anew.

thanks for the allowance of thought ...

You really should read some HP Lovecraft though. For the death and instigation.
