Fuse Box Under Hood On 91 Geo Metro Site Geometroforum Com ...

They don’t think beauty common

That’s the problem if ya lift the lid

Each is a bloody Boston Brahmin

Every good thing must be hid

It has to be so esoteric

Cause otherwise how would the wise claim to have uncommon eyes

This renders everything generic

So endless they philosophize

Straining to remove magic

Lest the thing be massive or o so tragic

What else is pretty what else profound

Nothing nothing

Each and everyman has found

Well I for one think there is absolutely nothing that separates the pauper from the king

As long as the former fool can somewhat sing

‘Daily’ Poem # 6 – Synesthesia

Full Circle | Leap & The Net Will Appear

There is a word that says all things of course

If you want to hear it you must learn to see

That see is waves and waves are sound and source

Such sight comes as pulses of light’s subtle symmetry

If now is then instead of when here then is now

I think this maybe something approaching the Zen

Gee, Bee Flat, and Dee (Vlog and Music Sorta)

9 minutes of utter wank.

I do like the chord though. If it is a chord I think it’s supposed to be G, B Flat, and D Flat but whatever.

It was my intention to get some headway on the Sketch of Sam Monroe today. But I also have to run through my ‘repertoire’ (read fapatoire) and do general practice. So I thought I’d just toss-up a bit of that practice session to justify my slacking.

Here’s a cool article on the region I’m writing about in the aforementioned story: https://www.roughguides.com/destinations/south-america/brazil/mato-grosso/

The 50 Best Study Abroad Memes I’ve Ever Seen – Adventure ...

You are ever the tourist

Pausing but briefly so that the stank

A mall store sample of wisdoms perfume would linger on your wrist

You know that if you were being completely frank

You’d own up

That the best kinda living can be

Packaged and bought and slapped on a cup

So go on….Europe is calling

Backpacking trips will have all the soccer moms squawking

Of what a worldly erudite stripling

The suburbs have raised

O the ennui how your eyes they have glazed!

Open Letter to the Collegiate

I Missed My High School Graduation — They’re celebrating because they no longer *have* to read.

Dear Corporate,

If the promise of diploma and the salary that it brings is the only reason that you cracked a book today – you are not educated.

Sincerely,

Daily Poem # 4 – Fire and Seed

On November 11, 2018 By Alex V. WeirIn UncategorizedLeave a comment

Empty smell

I sit among it

Wholesome well

Leaves are scattered lit

By sun holy sun wholly shining through a million cracks

There was once a water wheel

In this place by the rusted tracks

Fire and seed

They carried forth what survived of generations

Supplied each need

To those who through wit and luck kept their station

But here

In wholesome depths

Tears draw near

Fire rivers fanned by the empty smell

Sing songs of those who never had a chance to tell

Why do I sit here with the power to spell

When I disappear

Will I meet the million voices

Who dwell here

Amongst fates fickle choices

Fractal Radio | Episode 27 – Art and Physical Fitness

On November 11, 2018 By Alex V. WeirIn Philosophy, Psychology, UncategorizedLeave a comment

My hand hurts…I segue into a discussion on the relationship between art and physicality. There is a sort of trope that artists are disaffected and dysfunctional – that substance abuse and abandon are the key to greatness. I present an alternative theory.

Then I talk a bit about Goethe and Bach. Finally I finish off with some tunes.
