aspie ranting

If I seem a little distant or incoherent, it's because I am. I am not a NeuroTypical and I have no desire to become one. This is simply the area in which I stim my creative impulses. (WARNING: All entries are either ENTIRELY TRUE or ENTIRELY FALSE and anything claiming to be one of the latter is, in fact, one of the former. There are no exceptions to this rule.)

it isn't far to look for
talent
for companionship
for anything that makes it stop
but they never do

there is no forgotten dream
just mixed emotions
conflicting desires
because everything just
simply is

and pride has never come before a fall
for pride has never quite been mine at all

the things left unspoken now
will forever disturb the peace
hold not your tongue with me
nor your imagination distrustful
inspectors laud a great mistake
and the smile, his smile, was formed
it was sardonic

forgiveness is granted when change is observed, right?
but how can change truly be observed without forgiveness?
there's a way, you told me once, to make sure we'd make it
but I have some serious doubts
and most of them are not your doubts
but just that you have any

afford me the respite
to forget this ever happened
a fresh start
but a familiar one...

the spiderweb's cloy
clings to morning's dew
and sunlight dances
reminds me of the sparkles in
your smiling eyes

nothing left but Love to give
nothing left but Love to live

 
all you need to do is smile
and I'm your biggest fan

 
This was a wonderful weekend, truly. Somehow I both hope and know that life will continue to be this amazing and that thought is warm and safe.

I now think of Proust writing about the "end of jealousy" as the beginning of true love.

------------------------------------------------------

The light -- the one that radiated from me so much that every mystically inclined person that I knew only knew me because they searched me out -- is back. I see all things with an inner light

I have seen the doors to Chapel Perilous
swing shut behind my back
but this time
from the outside
is far
more satisfying

and Love

------------------------------------------------------

and Love.

"History is made by men who do not think of the ultimate effects of what they are doing."
-- Malcolm's Second Law of History

 
and Love, is.

this inebreation
is a blessing and a curse
a defining character strength
and flaw
weakness in strength
finds strength in weakness

honesty
is the stain
the social sin
of which I am guilty
guileless and
as a result
unbroken

you may love me now
you may be loved by me now
I will be happy.

if my love is not just
forgive me, but
if you love me not
then tell me

 
there is an angel
which resides in my heart
and sometimes she is near to me
and sometimes she needs
to disappear

I am okay with that
because I know
that I reside in her heart
and nothing can change that

Dear world,

I am in Love with Shannon Elizabeth Balue. No matter what happens in my life, this will not change. While there may be other people who may one day reside in my heart, none will measure to her. No matter what I say.

She is my soulmate.

Thank you for your time,

Malcolm

 
clear head
clear conscience
clear heart
clear mind

free and clear
I see her watching
waiting, always waiting
for me to wake up

and I have loved "not wisely
but too well"
when all she wanted
was what I wanted

and you, dear heart,
will always know
it was in your smile

 
everything makes sense now!

this is so easy!

*smiles*

the tyrant and the rebel hold the same creed:
to act is to live.


 
so I dream of despair, as if my nightmare would be in a state of joy so that it might be taken away...

 
There is no life in Universe. I mean not even on earth.

There are meat puppets that follow their weak chemical bonds and flashes of electricity to convince them that Brain is all knower of everything and all reality. But when that fails you, something happens.

You realize
you can't trust your own senses
you wonder how much
of your reality is
hallucination.

Nobody "owns" even themselves. Weak metaphors for some flashes of electricity, maybe a neurotransmitter or 14.

Deeper and deeper the rabbit hole goes
but I've seen the bottom
and I know what
waits there
always waiting
always watching.

Gravity is formed by an intersection of two dimensions of time that also, coincidentally, form the very model of a light cone. (write that down, it's important!!!)

I remember myself in the fall of '96
(before the winter of discontent)
and I remember hope
and I remember the dream I had
and I remember

I can't forget these past seven years
all the twists and turns
but I wish for the endurance of my
fearless freedom

I will not grow up to be jaded
I will not grow up to be naive
I will not grow up to be abused anymore
I will not grow up like them

and I suppose that's what this started all about,
not growing up to be like them...

I will be different. I will be alive.

don't tell me I'm fucking crazy... not okay
don't tell me I'm fucking ridiculous... less okay
don't tell me that you love me...? Now there's a problem.

I can be all those things and more... as you well know

all you have to do is stop believing in me again...

 
I am done playing games.

I am done playing roles.

I am done catering to the needs of a fickle lover.

I am done treating everyone with kid-gloves.

I am more me than ever, baby... get ready!

 
He hadn't eaten in three days -- partly because he was so full of bitterness and resentment that he didn't have any room for food. Everything was building, almost like a cheesy film noir, but something was different this time around; the gloom and pain that was everywhere, suddenly, imploded into nothingness. He was free. It took everything with it... everything except Love.

"I Love you." he said, quietly to himself. But, she was nowhere to be found.

 
I want you to be happy
but I don't know if you'd be happier without me

fuck all the everyones who know nothing about me
fuck all the everyones who think I am nobody

fuck all the everyones who dismiss me
fuck all the everyones who don't care how I feel
fuck all the everyones who don't know how to help
and don't try.

and you... probably fuck you too...

"Delusional
I believed I could cure it all for you, dear
Coax or trick or drive or
drag the demons from you
Make it right for you sleeping beauty
Truly thought
I could magically heal you

You're far beyond a visible sign of your awakening
Failing miserably to rescue

Sleeping Beauty

Drunk on ego
Truly thought I could make it right
If I kissed you one more time to
Help you face the nightmare
But you're far too poisoned for me
Such a fool to think that I could wake you from your slumber
That I could actually heal you..

Sleeping Beauty
Poisoned and hopeless
You're far beyond a visible sign of your awakening
Failing miserably to find a way to comfort you

Far beyond a visible sign of your awakening
And hiding from some poisoned memory

Poisoned and hopeless
Sleeping Beauty"

-- Sleeping Beauty, by A Perfect Circle

this is my place to vent and rant and make no sense at all...
this is not my notion of reality...
this is not real.

I am not real.

 
all bitterness, resentment,
distrust in due time
forever waining
a mistake of youth
and inexperience
wishing away the remnants
of a life better left forgotten
for understanding is a dangerous gift
a blessing and a curse
but afflicted am I by an inverted situation
perpetually in the dark
surrounded by limelight
basked in anonymity's infamy
a fellow traveler
a wary soul
an adventurous spirit
and an outright lunatic

wage of experience
taxing my mind
old war wounds that never heal
too busy hiding them
to notice anything else
things left unsaid
unfelt
unfeeling
and belief will never betray those
who never believe
levy of faith
taken away leaving nothing

but I will remember
the great advetures we'd imagined
and how so many things seemed possible
and no matter what we always had eachother
the overconfidence I thrived on
was poison in the end

"Oft expectation fails, and most oft there
Where most it promises; and oft it hits
Where hope is coldest, and despair most fits"

-- All's Well That Ends Well

 
this is the beginning of
something big
and some betrayals
never die

 
if you think you've discovered some new level of thought
THINK AGAIN
if you think you're developing some new type of paradigm
THINK AGAIN
if you think that I don't know exactly what is happening
THINK AGAIN
if you think that I am as stupid as everyone likes to think I am
then you're in for a big surprise...

I've lost all my marbles now
sanity in shambles
and you're not out of the briar patch yet
dementions enacted in many
dimentions reacting to the rate of the hate
spewing past your forked tongue
release my soul so I may wander free of you
but you never do

 
fuck you
with your self-righteous
unilateral decision making

how many heroes
suffer ill fate gladly
only to see their cause
abandon them?

 
sometimes I can't help myself
hope springs infernal and I can't give up
no matter how much it kills me inside

 
"i resent you calling
i resent your voice
i resent that i don't have a choice

anywhere i go
you are always there
outside the car
or in my hair

i think i've been here before
yes i've been here before
the last time you locked
all the doors

and i resent you calling
i resent your voice
i resent that i don't have a choice

and yes i am
yes i am

i think i've told you once
i think i needed advice
you were such a help
that's very nice

i think i've been here before
yes i've been here before
but this time i kick down your door

yes i am
yes i am"

-- "Yes I Am" by Radiohead

 
never opened depths
of fears and despair
haunting the sighs that
occasionally hint at the tumult felt inside
and the only thing I miss the most
is missing missing you
the sweet decay of fermenting love
from nature's innovation
to intoxication's chance
the final rung of pessimism
some wise man once said
two broken hearts
three things in all
will haunt me as pure melancholy
starving hoping wanting waiting waining
falling harder takes on all new meanings
help me fight these curs�d feelings
I'm not dealing     well with things
among the many things that plague me lately

withdrawl
with drawls
after all the wall
was there before the call
for help, a rescue from the squall
of squalid remorse wrapped in an apology call

there
is
no
relief
from
this

forget preconceptions
fight the infernal temptations
break all habits here and now
ask the tough questions
nobody wants to answer
and listen close and listen deep
to the not so witty banter
because deep in the heart of every verse
is a hint at something better and 2 hints of something worse
scratch that
I didn't mean to hurt you
I didn't mean to confuse you with my feelings
I didn't mean to do a lot of things

I never do...

as luck would have it
you don't seem to mind
you've got backups and fallbacks
and drugs to numb you blind

but don't forget this little bit
if there are no chairs, then where do you sit?

time to trust instinct for a while...

juvenile
twits parade asking about
sweet despair

 
The phonecalls have stopped
the emails have run dry
is this over?

 
in heartless confidence
I survey my secrets
my secret fears
my secret doubts
my secret identity
half-spoken half-truths
half forgotten by the end
not believable not now
not this time not this time
I surmise I could try
to follow and go with the flow
but malcontent muses
somehow manage to misbehave
in the here and now
something meaning more than then
meaning more and then
meaning no more than any more
anymore

a pizzicato rambling
and lately I don't mind
a silent trust
although unkind
and your "doing alright"
is better than mine

Wanted -- by ME!
(Verse 1 & Chorus)
----------------------------

I wanted a lover
not a lush

I wanted a girlfriend
not a crush

I wanted to be important
not ignored

I wanted to be wanted
Loved and adored

I fell apart so slowly
everytime you never called
and everything you promised me
is always unresolved

I'm no savior, but I wish I could save you...

 
The truth is a very real and very powerful thing. The truth is more than we can ever know.

and things are proceeding now, exactly as planned...

*rowr*

 
sometimes I wonder what your priorities are... then I remember.

 
you'd never believe me... nobody would.

every breeze whispers your name
your gentle eyes
always undressing

shaking
the very foundation of a life
less ordinary and far
more fun

a partner
is all we needed
and we have been discovered
and uncovered

and life is pretty kick-ass
now that we're together
(forever)
