I had to get out, liberate myself, the one no one noticed, recognized, cared about. I had to break free of death, to stand again, for I had fallen into the abyss of gravity, the profane judgment of time and space, the infinite mountain of death, out of which life itself emerges. I had to live again.

I wanted to shake it, to break the spell of deontology, to overcome the spirit of death, the weightiness of being, to become light, a being of light, a hymn to crashes and collapses, ashes and disasters. I wanted to shake away the sand of the dream of death and the tyranny of a life lived for death.

Perhaps, I've never actually been human, never been a member of anything, only a stranger, unfamiliar, a suite of questions without answers, a set of problems with no solutions, without authority, gravitas, without weight whatever, only a phantom, only a ghost, forced to haunt the lives of the dead.

They never actually listen, ask the same questions again and again and again, as if you did not respond the first n-th times. What it means is you are irrelevant, forgettable, always a stranger, an inconvenient mystery, never fully human, subjected again and again and again to the same humiliations.

We have come to be ruled by the worst of people because we have become the worst of peoples, because we forsook the love of God, provision for the flourishing of humankind, provision for the flowering of the consciousness of life. We sought in death the substance of life, and life turned against us.

Gravity, death, the state, forces us to share space and time, which is to say, as Kant understood, a mass-bearing object, an I, is already situated in a spacetime background, as human beings are already situated in the forms of male and female. Even puberty is the awakening of our awareness of this.

What has accelerated the death of the United States is the amount of scrutiny, surveillance and suspicion to which its citizens have been subjected. In the Twin Paradox, the twin in motion ages less because he experiences less time, fewer measurements than a being at rest. Too many eyes means death.

In Einstein's Twin Paradox, the one at rest, under the influence of gravity, experiences more time, while the one in motion, outside the influence of gravity, experiences less time. Quantum Mechanics informs us that a measurement affects what is measured. Time, like a measurement, affects the twins.

The whole world is under such constant survey and scrutiny, subjected to such extreme and traumatizing violence and chaos, that we have developed mass paranoia and hysteria. There is no healing or saving America. It is finished. We have become a wretched and ridiculous people, destined to pass away.

I realized today that everywhere I go that has a positive memory or feeling attached to it, nearby is a place that has a negative memory or feeling attached to it, like particle-antiparticle pairs caught in gladiator combat for my future, striving to annihilate one another in a coliseum of identity.

The Democratic Party is a party of whiners, complainers, lazy, weak chimpanzees, just like Christianity, just like the GOP. You are stuck in a dead way of being and a dumb way of doing, which have brought the greatest country in the history of the world to the absolute stupidest possible conclusion.

The world had only ever communicated to me a message of rejection, that I was unwanted, unlovely, an unbearable inconvenience. And the world had suffered for it as much as I had, suffered for the sin of false judgment, wicked faith, the sin of assuming the role of God. And now, it was falling apart.

I possessed in my being the salvific supply, and everywhere I heard the demand issue from a thousand different voices. The whole of being cried out. What I needed, what the world needed, was a vehicle to bring us together, a wormhole of transcendental composition that provided for the new synthesis.

I don't know what it would mean to give up, to cease to believe the Voice, only that I would suffer immensely, and in the aftermath of such a decision, take a leap into nihilism and death. The Hell wherein I dwell is a place of powerlessness, seeing the world fall at a distance too great to save it.

The United States deficit is the real measure of our bad karma, our bad faith, the way we have borrowed against the future, bankrupted the future, in order to fund schemes and programs that profited us nothing but more and more need to double down on our false causal accounts. Leap into a new faith.

Another rejection, another failed attempt to reach the world, another in a mountain of matches I could not trigger to catch flame. A part of me writes it off immediately, like any average day in a lifetime, but another part of me suffers it, adds it to the feeling of total alienation from the world.

I read this poem, every now and then, "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" by T.S. Eliot. I understand now the dread of waking up every morning with fewer hairs and hours, how I slept away the greatest moments of my life, adrift upon the Sun-scorched sea, bleeding from the lips with salty ignominy.

Our society has become a madhouse, a literal insane asylum. Emotionally, psychologically, physically, spiritually, nothing beside remains of the colossal wreck of the American Dream. Our Parousia is dead. I weep for my people. This is the moment of our great lamentation. God, have mercy upon us all.

Those who lived harmless lives, passive lives, boring lives, lives without competition, conflict and crisis, those who never let the raging rapids of brutal reality ferry them unto the shores of blissful, supernal catharsis, all I had for them was contempt, no charity, no compassion, no care at all.

I fantasized about wielding absolute power, of living life without a care or concern, absolutely free from the limitations imposed by the cruelest and most unforgiving of all evils, privation and irrelevance. I fantasized about life on the move, a life of bounding across the infinite plane of being.

People want to be ruled, people want to be tyrannized and made into fodder for madmen, people want to live by fictions and myths and gibberish. What they need is a ruler, a tyrant, a madman, someone to tell them lies, write them stories, and fill their minds with the addled fantasies of true genius.

I could think of no worthier cause than getting rich, having witnessed all the angry, resentful, moronic fiends who wallowed in self-pity, espoused Leftist ideas and spent their lives speaking poorly and cruelly to complete strangers because they knew no one would care or even notice when they died.

I wanted to set myself singularly to the focus of making money, to acquiring so much money that I could afford to give bundles of cash to vagabonds and poor schoolchildren, not because it was the right thing to do, but because I could, because it was there to do, because nothing else really matters.

Two complementary pairs that obey the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle are compassion and accountability, and forgiveness and truth. Too much of one results in too little of the other, and perhaps, here of all places, it is most appropriate to consider sacrifice and obedience as complementary pairs.
