Genius in a psychotically obsessive brain
Noble soul in a troubled mind
Intellectual puissance in a
Prison of delusion
Thoughts of abyssal depth
Stunning intricacy
Endless horizon of the mind
Yet, every move
A challenge
A near impossibility
Voices speak of punishment
Contamination is omnipresent
Death lures in the tiniest particle
Belief is above proof
Friedrich Nietsche
(My son’s favorite philosopher):
A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum
shows that faith does not prove anything.
He could but he can not
He does not want to but he has to
Brilliance meets helplessness
Helplessness builds aggression
Together they fight back
He shouts
ENOUGH!
Quiet
But not for long
They never really go away.

Why a ladder, are you scared to jump, Tubularsock? 😉

Oh no. Tubularsock is never scared to jump but with Nietsche it’s best to have a ladder to climb out!
