“PEOPLE TALK OF FREEDOM - FREEDOM DOES NOT EXIST IN THE HUMAN WORLD ! ALL HUMAN BEINGS HAVE ACCUSTOMED THEMSELVES TO THEIR UNFREEDOM WHICH THEY PURCHASED AS FREEDOM , JUST AS THEY HAVE ACCUSTOMED THEMSELVES TO ANY EVIL , THE GREATEST OF WHICH IS SANITY - FREEDOM IS A CRIME OF THOUGHT TO ALL MEN - AND THEY HAVE PERFECTED THE FALSIFICATION OF REALITY ON SO LARGE A SCALE THAT THE TRUTH HAS BEEN SCARED AWAY ; AND WHO NEEDS TRUTH IN WHAT CONTAINS THE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH AS THE VILENESS OF DECEPTION OF HER , AS THE ASSIDUOUS EXCOGITATION BY WHICH THE EXCOMMUNICATION AND FEMALE VIOLATION OF HER HAVE BEEN EFFECTED AND PERFECTED INSTEAD TO DESTROY ANY VESTIGES OF HER BEING ONCE EXTANT AND TO MAKE HER LOOK MISSHAPEN AND MUTILATED SO THAT SHE CANNOT BE KNOWN AS TRUTH ANY LONGER - FOR THE TRUTH IN HER BEAUTEOUSNESS CANNOT STAND HOLY MEN NEAR HER WHO MURDERED AND SHOT HER DEAD AT CLOSE RANGE IN THE HUMAN WORLD AS THEIR UTMOST MASTERY LONG , LONG , LONG AGO ! DOES THE PENITENT CRAVE RESURRECTION ? IF SHE DID , HOW COULD SHE BE A PENITENT THEN, DESIRING BUT TO CLEANSE HERSELF OF MANKIND AND TO RANSOM HERSELF FROM THE UNCLEAN SACREDNESS OF ALL MEN AND TO WITHSTAND THE BETRAYAL TO EXISTENCE WHICH HAS BECOME A DISEASE , DESTITUTE OF FRIENDS SHE IS AND HER SEASON IS PAST ! , SEEKING WATERS UNDEFILED TO SWIM AND BE DROWNED IN FOR HER TO RETURN TO WHERE PEACE AND FREEDOM REIGN UNPERTURBED...”

“IS IT DIFFICULT TO BE AN ACTOR ?
WHY ? ? ?
ALL HUMAN BEINGS ARE ACTORS ,
THEY HAVE ADAPTED TO PLAYING SOME
BESOTTED TREACHEROUS ROLE IN THE HUMAN
WORLD WITH THEIR GROUND BEING SO
TREACHEROUS THAT YOU ARE BOUND
TO FALL INTO THEIR GAPING CHASMS
OF ROLE-PLAYING IF YOU DO NOT LOOK OUT !
BUT IT IS DIFFICULT TO BE A HUMAN BEING !
AND AS TO THE LATTER ,
I HAVE NEVER MET ONE , NEVER SEEN ONE
AND I NEVER WILL ! AND WHO CARES ?
I AM NOT HERE ANY MORE !
YOU LIKE TO FLY KITES , DON'T YOU ?
CAN YOU SEE ME UP ON THE MOUNTAIN
BEYOND ALL THE MOUNTAINS IN THIS WORLD ?
I AM A KITE MYSELF , FLYING FREE IN THE AIR
WHERE THE AIR I BREATHE IS NO MORE REAL
AND YOUR EMOTIONS REPRESENTING YOUR
DULLNESS'S NOTHING HAVE ALL DISPERSED AND WHERE THAT BLANK MACHINERY OF YOUR
HUMAN RESOURCEFULNESS SERVING AS REINFORCEMENTS AS REGARDS YOUR CREATION,
CURDLING THE BLOOD OF NO ONE BUT MYSELF ,
HAS EVAPORATED TOO ! DO NOT TRY TO CATCH ME - MY AIR WOULD BE TOXIC TO YOU ,
AS YOURS OF YOUR AUTHORSHIP'SINVENTION IS TO ME WHERE YOU ARE MERELY CAPABLE OF TELLING WHAT A MISBEGOTTEN RACE YOU ARE WITH YOUR AVENGER INFERIORITY COMPLEX !...”

“PART 2
LEAVE !
DISAPPEAR !
ALL OF YOU , THAT NO LONGER
MAY I BEHOLD YOUR PAIN OF BEING !
RUN TO THOSE WHO ARE LIKE YOU ,
THOSE CAMP FOLLOWERS TO COMFORT ONE ANOTHER ,
AND WHO TAUGHT YOU HOW TO EXIST ,
SOMETHING THAT YOU READILY ADOPTED ,
MINDLESS AS YOU ALL ARE ,
AND ROUSE THAT JOY AND ENTHUSIASM OF TOGETHERNESS
WHICH IS SO ESSENTIAL TO YOUR LIVES AND
WHICH APPERTAINS TO YOUR VERY DEFINITION
OF BEING HUMAN AND HENCE OF BEING ALIVE ,
WHENEVER YOU FEEL DEJECTED
SO THAT CAN BUCK EACH OTHER UP
BY ALL OF YOU CONFORMING TO THOSE LAWS
WHICH YOU HAVE ESTABLISHED AS YOUR '' TRUTH ''
AND WITH WHICH YOUR EXISTENCE HAS BEEN REPLACED ,
KNOWING ONE ANOTHER BY THE ONE PROPERTY
OF ALL OF YOU BEING CONFORMISTS
THAT YOUR CONFUSION OF NOT KNOWING
WHO YOU ARE MAY BE DISPELLED !
FOR IS IT NOT DISTASTEFUL TO EVERY SINGLE ONE
OF YOU TO FIND THE PATH TO YOURSELF ,
AND THEREFORE TO BE YOURSELF ?
WHAT DOES THAT SIGNIFY BEING YOURSELF ? , BUT TO
STOP REPRESENTING SOMEONE ELSE'S THERORY ,
SOMEONE ELSE'S DOCTRINE , SOMEONE ELSE'S
LAW WHICH YOU FOLLOW OBEDIENTLY IN
YOUR NESCIENCE AND IN THE TERRORS OF
YOUR MIND OF NOT KNOWING WHAT ELSE TO DO ,
SOMETHING THAT YOU SHARE WITH YOUR CAMP FOLLWERS ,
OR YOU WOULD NO LONGER BE THAT ! ,
CONSTITUTING THE VERY EVOCATION OF THAT MADNESS
OF HUMAN EXISTENCE !
PRESS THE TRIGGER AND KILL SOMEONE
IN ORDER TO COMPLY WITH THE PITILESS
OBEDIENCE OF YOUR LAWS !
THAT IS HOW YOU HAVE BEEN RAISED : TO KILL !
THAT IS YOUR DESTESATBLE ONLY TRUTH !...”

“PART 1
INSTINCT FOR POSSESSION , AVIDITY ,
MONEY AND MAN ,
ARE THOSE WORDS INSEPARABLY
LINKED WITH EACH OTHER ?
HOW DOES TRUTH FIGURE IN THAT ?
IS SHE THE ONLY ROGUE IN
THE '' WEALTH '' OF MAN'S WORDS ,
OF HIS DICTIONARIES AND LEXICONS
AND SO FORTH ?
OR : IS TRUTH DEFINABLE
BY HUMAN STANDARDS
BY WHAT HAS BEEN DEFINED TO BE HUMAN ,
AS SHE APPARENTLY HAS BEEN ACCEPTED
INTO ANY DICTIONARY ET CETERA
AS A MATTER OF COURSE
AND EVERYONE SPEAKS OF TRUTH
AS IF SHE WERE A MATTER OF COURSE -
IS IT BAD TO BE A HUMAN BEING ?
IT IS INDEED BECAUSE OF WHAT
THEY HAVE MADE OF BEING HUMAN !
WHAT DO YOU EXPECT ?
OGLING THAT DISTINGUISHED
COMPANY OF CAMP FOLLOWERS IN THE
HUMAN WORLD IT CONSISTS OF ,
EVERY ONE OF THEM RESIGNING HIMSELF
TO THE WRONG OF HUMAN EXISTENCE ,
AS WAR HAS BEEN DECLARED ON LIFE ,
TRYING TO MAKE YOU ANOTHER OF
THOSE CAMP FOLLOWERS IN THEIR VOID ,
EVERY ONE OF THEM
ACQUIESCING HIMSELF IN SO DIRE A DOOM
THAT HUMAN EXISTENCE HAS BEEN TURNED
INTO UNSPEAKABLE HORROR , THAT
HIDEOUS CREATURES DEVOID OF HUMANITY
HAVE BEEN REANIMATED , OR RATHER
MANUFACTURED AS THE PERFECTION OF LIFE
TO PERFORM AN AUTOMATED FUNCTION
IN THE GUISE OF VENERABLE POMPOSITY ,
QUENCHING ANY SPARK OF LIFE AND ANY
VESTIGES OF TRUTH , A SUGARY SWEET
MASQUERADE OF ARISTICRATIC HYPOCRISY
FOUNDED ON THE CONCEPT OF AVIDITY
AND INSTINCT FOR POSSESION , WHICH IS
WHAT IS LURKING BEHIND MONEY -
AND IS THIS ALSO WHAT IS LURKING
BEHIND THE HUMAN NATURE , ID EST ,
HOW MAN NEEDS TO BE DEFINED ?”
― LUCIA SPLENDOUR

“PART 3
THIS QUOTE OF MINE
IS EXCLUSIVELY CONCERNED WITH WAR -
HOW IS IT ,
THAT THIS CHRONIC DISEASE OF HUMAN MISERY
HUMAN EXISTENCE IS AFFLICTED WITH
IS OMNIPRESENT AND CONTINUES TO GROW
IN ALL THIS PROSPERITY OF TODAY ?
AND THE WORLD IS HEADING FOR A NEW WAR
THANKS TO POLITICIANS SUCH AS PUTIN ! !
THE WHOLE WORLD IS WATCHING
AS THE HORRORS OF WAR ONCE AGAIN
- NOBODY INTERVENING
YET WE ARE ALL ONE WORLD COMMUNITY ! -
ARE UNFOLDING BEFORE THEIR VERY EYES ! ,
BEFORE EVERYONE'S EYES
THIS INDIFFERENT THEY ARE ALL ARE TO '' LIFE '' !
MAN HAS LEARNED NOTHING FROM THE PAST !
WERE ARE THOSE FEW PEOPLE
WHO ARE STILL CAPABLE OF THOUGHT
TO PUT A STOP TO THIS MADNESS ,
TO STAND FOR REASON AND LOVE OF PEACE ,
FOR DOES NOT EVERYBODY SPEAK OF LOVE ? ,
INSTEAD OF HEADING WITH A BLIND OBSESSION
AND FANATICALLY FOR THE NEXT WAR IN MODERNITY ? , AS A MATTER OF FACT ,
AS FANATICALLY AS THOSE CONVICTIONS
THEY HOLD FAST TO !
WHERE ?
WHERE IS REASON ?
WHERE IS LOVE OF PEACE TO BE FOUND ?
THOSE ENDORSING NOTHING BUT WAR ,
SIDING WITH THE VERDICT OF REACTIONARY
VIEWS WHICH CAN NO LONGER
BE DESIGNATED HUMAN
AS THE EFFECT OF THEIR ALLEGIANCE TO
'' TRUTH'' AND '' LOVE '' AND SUCHLIKE
FOR THEM NOT TO BE IN A BAD TEMPER ,
WHICH THEY ARE ANYWAY , INVARIABLY SO !
HOW IS ALL THAT POSSIBLE
WITHIN SOMETHING THAT IS SO FOND
OF VIEWING ITSELF AS '' HUMANE '' ,
PART OF WHICH IS
TO SUBSIDE INTO PROFOUND THEORIES
TO MAKE FOR MORE
'' HUMANE QUALITY OF LIFE '' ?
AND I KEEP ASKING MYSELF :
WHERE DO I LIVE WHEN ALL THIS ATROCITY
IS BROUGHT ABOUT WITHOUT ANY REMORSE ?
WHO IS YET CAPABLE OF THINKING
IN THIS WORLD ?
WHO IS TO MAKE A CLEAN SLATE AT LENGTH
BY TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT MAN ?
GIVE YOUR LIKES TO YOUR SUPERSTARS AND
TO YOUR POLITICIANS WHOM YOU VOTE
FOR THEM TO EFFECT MORE AND MORE WARS
AND TO TEACH YOU HOW TO WAGE WARS
AS PART OF YOUR EDUCATIONAL PROGRESS
FOR YOU TO BECOME
'' THE SCHOLARS OF WAR '' ! ,
AND GIVE THEM TO ALL THOSE OTHER FALSE IDOLS THAT YOU ADORE AND CANNOT RENOUNCE LEST MORTAL DREAD SET IN
AND ENRICH THEM BY YOUR STUPIDITY ,
YOU UNCOMPROMISING CAMP FOLLOWERS ,
YOU WHO ARE NOT ODIOUS TO YOURSELVES WITH YOUR INSATIABLE UNREASONING
COMPLACENCY IN HAVING DESECRATED
WHAT IS HUMAN ONCE AND FOR ALL !
I WANT NONE OF YOUR LIKES EVER
IN THE UNLIKELY EVENT THAT
SOMEONE SHOULD ACTUALLY READ THIS !
AND IF THIS IS NOT THE TRUTH ON WAR
THEN SOMEONE NEEDS TO EXPLAIN TO ME
WHAT WAR IS !
LIFE ?
LOVE ?
PEACE ?
FREEDOM ?...”

“WHAT IS LIFE ?
I DO NOT KNOW ,
AND INDEED NOBODY DOES ;
BUT WHEN I WRITE
I DEPEICT LIFE AS IT APPEARS TO ME
IN MY REVERIES AND FRENZIES !
TO ME THIS AND ONLY THIS IS LIFE !
EVERYTHING ELSE DOES NOT REPRESENT
LIFE TO ME , MORE ESPECIALLY ,
WHAT MAN HAS DEFINED TO BE LIFE :
SPURIOUS INTELLECTUALISM AND ITS DOGMATA
WORKING ITS WAY EVER UP ,
THE EFFECT OF WHICH ARE THOSE
SKYSCRAPERS AND THE PEOPLE
EMBODYING THEM :
ALIENATION , INDIFFERENCE , INSENSIBILITY !
INSENSIBILITY TO ANYTHING THAT IS ALIVE ,
CONSEQUENTLY WHAT IS ''UP ''
OR HAS THE SEMBLANCE OF BEING '' UP '' ,
IS DOOMED TO REMAIN '' DOWN '' FOR EVER ,
TO ME THAT IS A CRIME -
FOR EXAMPLE , LOOK AT PUTIN ,
AND HIS CURRENT CAMPAIGN OF WARFARE :
ONE CRAZY PERSON , AND HE IS ONLY
ONE PERSON WHO COULD EASILY BE
TOPPLED ! BUT WHY ISN'T HE
TOPPLED THEN ? BECAUSE HE IS
SURROUNDED BY THE SAME KIND OF
PEOPLE ANYWHERE : NOTHING BUT CRAZIES !
AND CRAZIES ARE THE GUARDIANS
OF HUMAN REALITY TOGETHER WITH
ITS RATIONALITY AND MORALITY ! !
AND WHAT IS TRUE OF PUTIN ,
IS TRUE OF ANY POLITICIAN !
ANY MORE QUESTIONS ON LIFE ?
IT IS GETTING DAMP HERE !
I HAVE TURNED MYSELF INTO A SEAGULL
WINGING OFF , ABANDONING THE OBSTINACY
OF LIFE TO YOU WHO KNOW ABOUT IT !
AND IF YOU TAKE NO CARE OF LIFE ,
HOW CAN YOU TAKE CARE OF YOURSELVES ?
AND DO YOU CONSIDER THAT YOUR
MARVELLOUS SUPERSTARS THAT YOU CRAVE
AND ADMIRE SO MUCH ARE FARING ANY
BETTER THAN YOU ARE ?
DO THEY TAKE CARE OF LIFE ?
HAVE THEY NOT SPOILT THEMSELVES
AFTER SPOILING LIFE ?
SIMPLE QUESTIONS ,
WHERE ARE THE ANSWERS ,
YOU SHOULD ´BE ABLE TO FURNISH THEM ,
BEING THOSE WHO KNOW OF LIFE !...”

“SCALE THE HUMAN MOUNTAIN
OF SUMLESS LIES UNTIL
YOU LABORIOUSLY REACH THE SUMMIT
THEN CAUSE IT TO CRUMBLE
BY YOUR EQUALLY SUMLESS BURDEN OF VERITY
THAT NO HUMAN MAY FAVOUR YOU
WITH A GLANCE ANY MORE
AND THOSE WHO DO
ARE NO LONGER HUMAN
HAVING DIVESTED THEMSELVES OF THEIR HUMANITY
AS YOU DID
BY VIRTUE OF THE FACT OF *
WHAT MAN HAS DONE TO HIMSELF
BESIDES , YOU ARE ABLE TO ASCERTAIN
HOW MANY '' FRIENDS '' YOU HAVE
WHICH IS THE EMPTY SET
CONTAINING ONE ELEMENT ONLY :
VERITY ! ,
TO WHICH YOU PERTAIN AS WELL
IT IS WHY IT IS THE HARDEST THING
TO FIND THE PATH
LEADING TO YOURSELF
AND IT IS BY THE EMPTY SET
THAT ALL OF MATHEMATICS
HAS BEEN MADE AN EGREGIOUS LIE TOO
IT IS MORE FACILE TO KILL SOMEONE OR ,
IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO , YOURSELF
DO YOU SEE THE POPLAR AND THE ROBIN
THAT IS PERCHED ON IT ?
ASK THEM !
THEY KNOW HOW TO LIVE
YOU DON'T
BECAUSE YOU ARE HUMAN AND INTELLIGENT :
MAN IS ENDUED WITH HIS SPIRIT OF INVENTION
WHICH HAS REDUCED LIFE TO ABSURDITY
AS ALL THOSE THEORIES AND TEACHINGS
SPRINGING FROM IT
HAVE NEVER BENEFITED LIFE ,
ON THE CONTRARY , DESTROYED IT !
AN APPRECIATION OF THE MAJESTY OF VERITY
ALSO ENTAILS THE INEVITABLE CATASTROPHE
OF '' BEING '' AND HENCE THE INFELICITY
OF YOURSELF WHICH HAS TO BE ASCRIBED
TO THOSE PROFOUND TEACHINGS OF MAN
AND THE IMPRECATIONS WHICH THEY
HEAPED UPON LIFE AND BEHIND WHICH
EVERYONE STRIVES TO CONCEAL HIMSELF
AS SOMETHING SUBLIME , BROTHERLY , CUNNING , INGENIOUS
CONVINCED OF THE '' SUCCESS '' OF SUCH BEING !
INGENUITY AND SUCCESS ,
DO THOSE TWO WORDS DIFFER ? ,
AS MAN IS DETREMINED BY THOSE CRITERIA
AND HENCE LIFE !...
WHAT ALSO COMES TO MIND HERE IS THIS -
THERE IS SOMETHING VASTLY ABOMINABLE
ABOUT SOCIETY :
ITS MEMBERS ARE EVER SO FOND
OF ALL THOSE MOVIE STARS AND ALL
THOSE OTHER LUMINARIES
AND WHAT IS LUMINOUS ABOUT THEM
I DO NOT KNOW ! YET THEY ARE IN THE
HABIT OF TREATING THOSE VERY SIGNIFICANT
PEOPLE DIFFERENTLY FROM ORDINARY
PEOPLE SUCH AS A HOUSEMAID OR A GROCER
OR A SALESMAN AND SO FORTH ,
THEREBY CREATING SOMETHING UTTERLY CORRUPT :
A FALSE IDEALISM !
THEY NEED THOSE LUMINARIES AS THEY
LACK ANY IDEALISM THEMSELVES IN THEIR EVERYDAY
REALITY WHICH HAS DEPRAVED THEM OF IT ,
OVERLOOKING HOWEVER ,
HOW TRULY ORDINARY IN TRUTH
ALL THOSE STARS ARE !
AND ALLOWING THEIR LACK OF IDEALISM
TO BE SUPERSEDED BY OTHER PEOPLE'S
NONPRESENT IDEALISM ON ACCOUNT OF
THEIR PROMINENCE MAKES EVERYTHING
LOOK EVEN DARKER IN LIFE ,
AS THOUGH LIFE CONSISTED IN FAME !
IS THIS WHY IT IS SO
DARK IN THE HUMAN WORLD ?
AM I THE ONLY PERSON TO APPREHEND
DARKNESS IN THEIR LIGHTNESS ?
OR WHY IS SO DARK IN THIS WORLD ?
SOMETHING LIKE THAT NEEDS TO BE
SHRUGGED OFF AS SOMETHING
INEXPLICABLY RATIONAL ,
WHENCE I HAVE ALWAYS THOUGHT MYSELF
IRRATIONAL IN NOT GROVELLING BEFORE
THOSE WHO ARE EVEN MORE ORDINARY
THAN ALL THE OTHER ORDINARY
NON-FAMOUS PEOPLE ARE !
IT IS IN PARTICULAR THOSE
ALL-IMPORTANT DIGNITARIES
WHO TASTE OF METHYLATED SPIRITS
IN A MOST ACRID AND NAUSEATING FASHION !
SO MUCH FOR CEANLINESS !...”
