The hobo hobgoblins hemoglobin.

Anonymous pledges fealty.

I do this thing, you probably do it too.

Without thinking..

If I read someone, or if I listen to someone, I start to talk like them.

Even past that, I start to phrase like them, in my head.

So if I spend a few hours listening to an author, or to a host, or to a songwriter..

The connections osmose.

In a sea of thoughts, most people are just grabbing one or two, grab one thought, attach it to another thought,

Look at it.

That’s the pairing you made.

Scrutinize it, see if it holds up..

You looked up, you grabbed one thought, you tied a string around it, then you looked back up…

You saw another one.

And you tried to tie those two things together.

My grandfather thought us how to tie fishing string to the legs of Junebugs, you could fly them around like a ballon,,

I always thought it was cruel.

Felt bad for the little bugs.

They did not ask, did not ask to be trapped, did not ask to have a string tied around their leg,, it just happened.

ANd we do it, for amusement.

So..

The pain of another living thing does not matter. No shortage of suffering.

Might as well get some kicks out of it.

It’s the same with people.

We love watching them and watching them fail.

We love poking around and trying to find the reasons.

Probably in our nature.

Plus, it makes you feel better about yourself..

Where did I start??

(Osmosis)

Ah yes, faking it…

It’s no bullshit.

You can study, you can soak someone’s method in,, then you can do it.

It’s fake, but you can do it, it’s forced, but only if you get caught.

If you don’t?

You must be a god.

Must be.

But it’s really just plagiarism, it’s the person you let in. It’s the method in which THEY tie thoughts together.

You lost your individuality, lost your sense of self,, trying to copy.

A sin.

That’s probably a sin.

Important to observe and consider other perspectives,, poser to adopt them as your own.

Poe—zerrr.

No respect for the monkey that bypassed self reflection.

You went for the low fruit and you stayed on the low branches.

You put on someone else’s clothes and claimed to be a thing.

Full of shit.

You fulla shit too.

Still,,, a neat anomaly.

You can reframe the brain, takes about ten minutes of listening to someone else, if they’re being natural and sincere.

You can copy that.
