Paradoxes
by Robert M. Velkym

Without human interaction you never truly lived.

Abstract Mind
Blue - Black,
This - That,
Split - Splat,
on the mat,
or a dead cat,

   The scroll of the mind rambled endlessly onto the paper of consciousness. The mind reeling into the psyche of the world in a spiral that lead neither up nor down. It just bobs you up and down, throwing you a bone, then taking it away. If life goes up and down in a perpetual drama of feelings does the rational mind off set the balance of emotions?

   Rational mind must control that which the heart could have or need have. Feelings are overcome by the rational mind, crushed and extinguished, made not to be, and evolved into the bettering of the whole, the whole should rule overall, for without one the other couldn’t possibly exist, except in a world of longing and grief.

   Life is what you make of it, goals and agendas, desires fulfilled and emotions if time allows. Does the allowance of the rational mind have full power to control the emotional side? The walls of the mind are thrown up to block out that very opportunity of that mind. The chitinous armor of society, the hiding of fear, and life unending sometimes alone…

Blood flows through my veins,
Life flows from my heart,
My heart beats for me alone,
It is mine and forever shall it be.

Bleed for yourself, for you are all that matters.
Life is now!! Beating goes on,
you make it so,
You make it go,
It doesn’t control you so,
Blood pumps from the heart and you must control it’s beating.
