20/20 Gonzo 34: Bring It To Ruin


Looked at me like I was speaking some other language, I repeated what I told him, using the same english language, hoping he would understand this time, "Protests around here are usually at Erwin Park.  North End," I said, slower than the first time.  He had asked me where the march was happening, his two friends stayed in the car.  Figured everyone knew where to go, but they were out of towners.  Gave him some quick directions and wished them a successful protest, everybody loves Erwin Park, especially when they visit for the first time.  Unique by nature I thought as they drove away, that place is like our own Central Park, never, never, never shall a housing development, or some other enterprise, bring it to ruin.

Madness, in all it forms, will take you down.  It is best to avoid by occupying time with productive, benevolent, and/or entertaining activities surrounded by plenty of sleep.  Keeps you from going crazy, keeps you from going mean.  The airing of grievances has never been easier, let it out out, but don't let it pop.  Needs to have the right bounce to work right, not too flat, not too full.

The seething of the majority, sickened by the screens, losing faith in many, faith displaced from the start.  All have done unrighteous things, all have had unrighteous thoughts, all are guilty of something.  Humans are humans, it is a common trait.  The self righteous are ignorant, they know not what they do, they hide behind things, they hide things, they justify things, they demand things.  It's easy to spot because we all recognize it in ourselves, and the mirror don't lie, but it sure can can make us mad.
