tangle of lies
    #1005391 -

are you as slow as a slug on the quest for truth? then won't you jump off the edge of the thread you sew? you know you just might save your lost ass found in a tangle of lies.

this yarn is unofficially tangled in celebration of the philosophy of the imagination of liars and poets (for we are one and the same, and that's a lie too).


--------------------
Everything is better than it was the last time.  I'm good.

If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care.

It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence.

I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too.  If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

oh, right on :smile:

A lover's a liar,
To himself he lies. 
The truthful are loveless, 
Like oysters their eyes!

"Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way."

Lies are magic, they're only as intoxicating as the performer. When the truth of magic becomes known to the public, it's obsolete. Lies are always cutting edge, my friend.

what kind of Lies are you talking about? lies you can see from a mile away. you dont find too many just honest people for the sake of being honest, i didnt really understand what the hell you were saying, not that i cant gather concepts but the wording didnt strike any logical pattern in my mind. clarify me if you will or try to be clever either one im wont be very surprised. although i see you may be on the threshold of some tangible talkable valid idea. or im just taking it wayyy to far lol.

oh, 'em truth tellin' congressman sure deplored those lying artists of the era.

i watched _the graduate_ the other day (for the first time) and found myself listening to simon and garfunkel (haven't for years) today too, what a coinquidink. didn't hoffman also play in the movie _lenny_? i haven't had the chance to see it.

the gospel according to st. lenny...
oh ya, dustin hoffman portrayed the great stand-up comedian in that flick... well worth seeing (tho there are other movies out there, and a couple-few books too... (paul krassner was lenny's estate executor --- had a book called _the (almost) unpublished lenny bruce_ published, ok...
simon and garfunkle, some good stuff outa that duo (the album "bookends" may be up there in the top 10 of all time (top 25 for sure...) ...starting off feeling nostalgic, for sure...)
