We NEED to let go of
Moral Superiority.
Admit, Celebrate, Embrace
We are each a mire of
ambiguities trying to wend
a way from here to where we
find some sense, some meaning,
tradition, ambition, clarity
-- some divine design or simple
formula. Open eyes, heart, mind
to exploration of communication,
of community, of loving unity,
of familial warmth, of kind regard,
respect for all we've been through
and yet to suffer or smother from
-- the reality we try to deny in
cruel play that would so much
more happily, usefully, endearingly
be assuaged with humility of
true morality --
the consciousness to live
successfully in society.
You call this whining, tantrum
throwing toddler a man (to be
admired, emulated)?
You have your definitions askew.
A man is a mature male human.
This is an immature mess.
Innocence
is not what we want or need.
Healing from trauma and
so knowing how
is what we need.
Art does not require commercial
success, but necessitates creative
success -- the fruition of the
vision.
It is not as easy for autists to
mask
as the neurotypicals. That may be
the real difference -- that the
neurotypical more easily falls into
social roles.
I am not
good
or bad
I am a complex interplay
of experience and consciousness.
I am a vagabond wanderer
thru (within) time.
I gain social roles, a mansion of
windows, views to inform variegate
realities -- keyholes to worlds.
Too much, too many, to categorize,
to capture on binary code --
and yet but a human among
unsung multitudes.
why do we seem to accept and
encourage
the "right" attitudes
about who
we are supposed to be?
