Opposing perspectives, my friend-
That's what this show is all about.
We can have one and two and three..
but go ahead and try this:
stand outside your one and ask another to stand outside the three.
If you find common ground,
then I believe you've solved the 'problem' of existence.
My friends are all drunks,
and so am I.
And so was Alan Watts.
Formulate a thesis about this, write it on lined paper, seal it in and envelope and burn it.

Bring nothing back,
and embrace globalization as mycelium spans the forest floor.
Now what are you?
Embrace bulwark opposition to something vile,
set yourself in position against it.
Now what are you?

Acquiesce and become.

"Embrace death with your whole heart,
and you will live forever."

you're not a drunk, you're lovely. you are too much of a proud warrior to clutch to a bottle. alan watts was only human — or maybe a god just like lenny kravitz and giggy. either way, it doesn't make him right, and i'm sure it makes many people snicker at him in death. your liver loves you. that's where the word lover derived. it's only one letter off. i like the rhythm you wrote this in.
