  • Illusive borders

     

    The abstract, developed and retract

    Just because of the way you react.

    The influence them have on us.

    Oppression becoming oppressed in

    the presence of machinery.

    Materialized education depleting our worth.

    Numbers are the abstract idea of worth,

    and with a false value we no longer search.

    We are divided and conquered, without identity.

    An absence of identity becomes your identity,

    a facade, an illusion of a free world with no

    segregation. Multicultural segregation.

     

    The state of emotion is an illness

    with a numbing cure. A thought an idea

    only safe when not escaped from your lips.

    In the freedom of advancement an invisible hold

    on your choice only broken in consciousness.

    The role that is played in capitalist puppetry

    holding you in pain, on a string. Internalizing

    your own pain, without connection to the world

    preordained for you. Without intricate connection

    to each other in a completed motion; a balance.

     

    Disconnected from the breast from in which we nursed.

    Farmed by the machinery in which we created ourselves,

    kept in pens, fed our own poison. Feeding on the tit

    of industry. Stress created by illusive abstract ideas

    control our being. Life is measured quantitative, void

    of qualitative evidence. The micro individual unaware

    of his macro impact. The fad of “green” and its micro

    impact on our macro goddess, our home, our balance

    and love. The destruction created from an abstract reality,

    where infinity exists and the qualitative of limitation is

    hidden, exhumed illusive. Enslaved in unconscious reality.

  • Moral Obsession

    I'm tired of people focusing on the problem itself, like michelle is a prostitute; prostitution is bad lets have a campaign to abolish prostitution. Prostitution exists for a number of reasons, but the issue is not prostitution itself. It's that michelle had a kid at 16, and the father left. Her mother died and she had  to drop out of school. She couldn't make enough money to pay the bills and she has no skills. She prostitutes. The problem is that michelle even has to turn to this at all. See there are a number of reasons Michelle got there. Concentrate on the person, not the problem. This is not just an issue of right and wrong, its were did WE as a society fail. How can WE as a society build that person up in a holistic way so that they live a healthy life?

    Anyway that's my rant. Im sick of black and white bullshit.

  • Being a woman

    It seems the more you speak the less people listen. If you babble on about nothing, and when I mean nothing I mean a conversation void of substance or a point; that seems to be when people listen. Empty conversations are not threatening and you can build up your ego in a seemingly pointless way.

    Any observation is a personal enlightenment, not often shared unless for ego sake...

    Anyway, on about being a woman.

    Being a woman is just as much about being a woman as being a man. I say this lightly because our existance is viewed as secondary to a man. This is not true, as any woman will tell you. Our existance is artistic, emotional, thoughtful, empowering, observational, experimental, passionate, it is what we want it to be. Void of men or full of them/one. In that enthrallment of love, our position is perceived as secondary but it is truly primary. For men are not our only passion, and definately not our first.

    The struggle is exciting, difficult, tragic, draining, heavenly but the idea of identity is much more sustainable, and poetic.

     

    Ideas are raw and a naked form of self in words

  • contemplating

    You only have two things that are yours completely, your voice and your choice.

    I know I have a voice, and I know what I want to say but I am not sure how to say it... but I am going to try.

    I am an Urban Aboriginal Youth, at least this is what the tell me. What this means is I am an assimilated Aboriginal Youth. I live in the city, I have little to no connection with my tribe, my culture, my language.  I long for my family, my elders, my cousins, my aunts, my culture, my language. Lost in the jungle of the city, I adapt to what is around me and do what I know best. I soak in the knowledge of other aboriginal culture,the Coast Salish, Nisga and Cowigan among others. I am what they call a Pan-Indian, a cumulation of all Aboriginal Cultures rolled into one. I paint to outlet my sorrow for my ignorance, to touch with my ancestors. I smudge to cling to my family and my culture. I search for my ancestors through the web, and research my culture to find scraps of information.

    I am still proud to be aboriginal, I still fight for unity among our nations, and for equal rights and justice for what they did to our ancestors. I fight to educate the nation why there are so many like myself.

    I look at our New World in sadness, our brothers and sisters confused by our new leadership that is unlike our elders. It`s influence is gluttony and greed. Consuming everything in our path, experiencing poison and leaving debris all around. Crying out for more, unable to heal the wounds within us. Our wounds become who we are, instead of a marker in our lives. Standing still in a rushing world. Consumerism has become our world. Our freedoms have been overshadowed by money, lust, and greed. When we look around for escape from this world we find the same in each other, and end up signing away our behaviour.

    In the abyss of ourselves, we forget about each other, about our earth. We forget to look to the future and not the past. We learn to accept the world as it is, inspite of it`s poisionous effect.

    We are all brothers and sisters, the wind, trees, oceans, crows, pigeons, flowers, soil, salt, neighbors, teachers, enemies, lovers, broken family, immediate family. We are a part of each other. We need to work together to make a change, to hear and be heard. Every piece of this world is crying out for a change. Our earth is sick, our lives are sick, lets heal together and create strength and unity as a family.

    Refuse to accept this world as it is

  • Variation of myself and the move.

    Now that I`m all moved into the new place I finally feel like I can breathe! I realized my biggest demon is my people pleasing self. On a constant basis others tell me how the feel I should be acting, what I should be doing and who I should be hanging out with, how I could be a better friend/daughter/person, and all these things I "should" be doing. I`m honestly just tired of those expectations being put on me. I don`t care if people think Im selfish because I am doing what I NEED to take care of me, and for taking a path that I want to take. If your love is measured by how well your partner/friend meets your expectations, well you can take your expectations and shove it. People are impossible to please, and I`m done doing this to myself. Its what drove me into the ground before. I know what is right in my heart, and I won`t ever shove my opinions down your throat so don`t do it to me. If you can`t support and love me for who I am, don`t bother being around. I don`t need more drains in my life. I need uplifting.

    I am not going to variations of your expectations,or variations of myself. I will be 100 percent me. I like me better that way, and if you don`t then don`t be around me.
