This Tyranical "World Order"
MattPat

Life is confusing from consciousness,
 1
I am pulled into passion, yet
 2
Obsession into the consicous state.
 3
It is inescapable.
 4
Reality is inescapable.
 5
A tyranical world order.
 6

There's a new world order every twenty years or so, that's just the way of things. In choosing to see a tyrannical or fascist connotation you show a deeper ignorance of world events that should really be forgivable from one who espouses to be a thinker.

if this were really a vision of that state, you wouldn't be trying to force us into your world-order. you don't write well enough in this to really invite, and you don't write passionately enough to sound like you even care. that's kind of what the world order seems like already, so why would we bother?

i don't think there's any way to fix this, since it just doesn't come from an authentic poetic space. it's talk-radio.

This isnt about the humaniacal construct,  or the formal symbol of civilizations ultimate implosion into mass domination or tyrany. This is about the tyrany of the mind, its distracting nature in contrast to consciousness. Life is the mind, wandering ignorantly into itself without knowing; religionhood, a state beyond life, is when you wake from the dream of the mind, and discover consciousness. The inescapable nature of consciousness contrasts the destracting nature of mind; this makes living much more complicated, yet much more interesting. However, since i grew out of this world, thrown into it as it were, there was no choice in the matter, and therefore seems a bit tyranical by cercomstance.
