If Only This were Doggerel
#19
There's an oceanic experience where you're drunk or high, or just in general, and you feel that we're all on the same wavelength. Yeah, we're different and have different points of view, but we're fundamentally the same, so let's argue over three bottles of vodka and make merry. The one perspective is, let's enjoy. Let's be not imperfect but perfect as we are and laugh about how we're different. If we weren't, different, after all, we'd be a great bore, which is as deadly as violence. That never works though. The oceanic feeling of being on the same wavelength. It doesn't work with people, it definitely doesn't work with wild animals which is what we are . . .

You have that oceanic feeling, of being on the same wavelength or not, we're still one. But you have to maintain your ego to protect yourself from those who aren't into it. Jesus may have had no ego, though he obviously did, if he existed as a man, but let's say he let go of his ego, and so he just let people kill him. . . . You can't let go of your ego, and your beliefs based on personal experiences and expect to be safe. Nor can you defend your egoistic beliefs and expect to be safe.

The problem is: only a person with an ego would say that. The problem is: no two egos can be right and still be separate egos, no matter how . . . group-inclined you are, and nothing can ever be resolved because an ego by nature .

. . needs separation to exist. . . . And this is all a plug for my new stand-up special entitled The Comedy of Cruelty, which will air in my imagination any time anyone pays me any attention by agreeing or arguing with me. Along with the companion analytical study: Jesus & The Joker: The Moral Villainy of r owens. Both are the length of my range, and the end of my commentary on this subject, until someone, like the victim of a vampire or attention whore, invites me into their storehouse of reasons why this is and that is. . . . Really the booze is running out and the battery is dying, and I'm obsessive and need to come to some sense of closure with myself in the moment before I press th
