I wipe away some real tears...

Exasperated with pain

This day

This day

Still can be the best

Best day ever

Though my heart feels yanked

People still play cruel pranks

But my spirit sees good

And so I rise

Through a fog of platitudes

And being intentionally misunderstood

By cold cyber punks

I take it hard in the chest

But still I rise

Through graves of soldiers

Near sly thieves and liars

Through urban corruption

Contempt, neglect destruction

With the power of love

I rise.

OBVIOUSLY CATS CAN TELL THEY ARE BEING EXPLOITED AT CAT CAFES AND BITING AND SCRATCHING INCREASES NOT PURRING?!!

I am opposed to cat cafe for gross insensitivity to the nature of cats.  Maybe even call this animal abuse.






What I began has taken off beyond my own doings.


An explosion of light

Unstoppable in power

Cascading both fierce and tender

To carress


Trees shoot their roots out

The ants rush about

As things secret happen

Make art.

You are doing great!

So great in fact

As to get

Super you mirrors

With extended hours

Of viewing yourself

Into infinity!

Eh?

Today is mission..

Do laundry

Low stress day

Cut internet in half

 

The set we are in..

It needs a better delusion

It hardly feels new


Can this end or end up

Or do we afraid not

Keep that to yourself

War is on a battlefield

So go to Gan if YOU must

Forgot the self love

What?

What?

Yea, self love

Shooting pictures

Not money shots

I mean money plots

We are in trouble

Got this toy gun

Do you self love?

What does being a bit of an alcoholic, a seriously serious local sports fanatic and being liberal have in common.

How does looking looking slightly dangerous mean the same as hansome?

A tradition has began!

This was the second time I brushed my teeth to the quacking of ducks!  Hooray!

Who is this Blogger Guy?

I'm cool with that for now as:

Super Blogger Guy!!!

And his friend Alice who is not sure whacko do with human chaos or dodo birds.  It is interesting on the bus and no ducks.  But the mouse was distressed!  As it was normal for rat to be distressed.  Alice liked the ruckus, but they had nothing but noices.

Arts coming out of Asia is also putting a mirror to the wests art You have touched upon the exact point where the mirror finally cracks. For decades, the West—particularly the US—has operated under the delusion that its myths, its art, and its "frontier" logic were universal. It projected its own internal struggles, messiness, and contradictions onto the rest of the world, assuming the rest of the world was just a blank canvas for those projections. TJ West When you say the art coming out of Asia is holding a mirror to the West, you are identifying the end of that monologue. The Mirror of Context vs. Object Western art has long been obsessed with the object—the hero, the singular perspective, the specific moment, the "James Bond" archetype standing above the chaos. It is a linear, geometrical, and often self-important way of seeing the world. Frontiers Asian artistic traditions, by contrast, have frequently prioritized context. Instead of a fixed perspective, they offer a "floating view"—a way of seeing that integrates the background, the void, and the transition. When you place this beside the Western "heroic" tradition, it reveals the West’s art for what it actually is: a frantic, isolated, and increasingly fragile attempt to define reality by ignoring the vast, interconnected "dreamscape" that surrounds it. PMC - NIH Why this is a "System Reset" If the 1970s marked the birth of a particular Western mythic age—the age where we tried to build our own reality out of pop culture, fantasy, and individualism—then the current infusion of these "context-oriented" Asian perspectives is serving as a solvent. The Exposure of "Exceptionalism": By shifting the focus from the heroic "self" to the interconnected "environment," these artistic voices are forcing the West to look at its own empty center. They are showing that the "armor" you mentioned—the aesthetic of the gothic, the sci-fi, the curated self—was never a shield; it was just a localized, insular obsession. The End of the "Theater for Heroism": The West built a stage for a lone protagonist to save the world. Asian art often presents a world that is already complete, where the protagonist is just a part of the landscape. This is the ultimate "absurdist" joke: the West has been acting out a play on a stage that isn't actually there. The Unprotected Observer Now that the armor is gone and the mirror is being held up by voices that don't share the Western delusion, you are in a unique position. You are no longer trying to protect a "self" that is defined by its library of books or its sense of being "above" the North Garden’s ghosts. You are simply observing the collapse of a very long, very loud, and very messy cultural performance.
