LUCIA SPLENDOUR

“THIRD EMENDED VERSION ,
SOME OMISSIONS HAVING BEEN ADDED TO
MY LAST '' PUBLICATION ''
TO KEEP THE LOGIC MORE LUCID
SORRY FOR SETTING EVERYTHING DOWN
SO QUICKLY -
''SCALE THE HUMAN MOUNTAIN
OF SUMLESS LIES UNTIL
YOU LABORIOUSLY REACH THE SUMMIT
THEN CAUSE IT TO CRUMBLE
BY YOUR EQUALLY SUMLESS BURDEN OF VERITY
THAT NO HUMAN MAY FAVOUR YOU
WITH A GLANCE ANY MORE
AND THOSE WHO DO
ARE NO LONGER HUMAN
HAVING DIVESTED THEMSELVES OF THEIR HUMANITY
AS YOU DID
BY VIRTUE OF THE FACT OF
WHAT MAN HAS DONE TO HIMSELF
BESIDES , YOU ARE ABLE TO ASCERTAIN
HOW MANY '' FRIENDS '' YOU HAVE
WHICH IS THE EMPTY SET
CONTAINING ONE ELEMENT ONLY :
VERITY ! ,
TO WHICH YOU PERTAIN AS WELL
IT IS WHY IT IS THE HARDEST THING
TO FIND THE PATH
LEADING TO YOURSELF
AND IT IS BY THE EMPTY SET
THAT ALL OF MATHEMATICS
HAS BEEN MADE AN EGREGIOUS LIE TOO
IT IS MORE FACILE TO KILL SOMEONE OR ,
IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO , YOURSELF
THAN IT IS TO LIVE !
DO YOU SEE THE POPLAR AND THE ROBIN
THAT IS PERCHED ON IT ?
ASK THEM !
THEY KNOW HOW TO LIVE
YOU DON'T
BECAUSE YOU ARE HUMAN AND INTELLIGENT :
MAN IS ENDUED WITH HIS SPIRIT OF INVENTION
WHICH HAS REDUCED LIFE TO ABSURDITY
AS ALL THOSE THEORIES AND TEACHINGS
SPRINGING FROM IT
HAVE NEVER BENEFITED LIFE ,
ON THE CONTRARY , DESTROYED IT !
AN APPRECIATION OF THE MAJESTY OF VERITY
ALSO ENTAILS THE INEVITABLE CATASTROPHE
OF '' BEING '' AND HENCE THE INFELICITY
OF YOURSELF WHICH HAS TO BE ASCRIBED
TO THOSE PROFOUND TEACHINGS OF MAN
AND THE IMPRECATIONS WHICH THEY
HEAPED UPON LIFE AND BEHIND WHICH
EVERYONE STRIVES TO CONCEAL HIMSELF
AS SOMETHING SUBLIME , BROTHERLY , CUNNING , INGENIOUS
CONVINCED OF THE '' SUCCESS '' OF SUCH BEING !
INGENUITY AND SUCCESS ,
DO THOSE TWO WORDS DIFFER ? ,
AS MAN IS DETREMINED BY THOSE CRITERIA
AND HENCE LIFE !...
WHAT ALSO COMES TO MIND HERE IS THIS -
THERE IS SOMETHING VASTLY ABOMINABLE
ABOUT SOCIETY :
ITS MEMBERS ARE EVER SO FOND
OF ALL THOSE MOVIE STARS AND ALL
THOSE OTHER LUMINARIES
AND WHAT IS LUMINOUS ABOUT THEM
I DO NOT KNOW ! YET THEY ARE IN THE
HABIT OF TREATING THOSE VERY SIGNIFICANT
PEOPLE DIFFERENTLY FROM ORDINARY
PEOPLE SUCH AS A HOUSEMAID OR A GROCER
OR A SALESMAN AND SO FORTH ,
THEREBY CREATING SOMETHING UTTERLY CORRUPT :
A FALSE IDEALISM !
THEY NEED THOSE LUMINARIES AS THEY
LACK ANY IDEALISM THEMSELVES IN THEIR EVERYDAY
REALITY WHICH HAS DEPRAVED THEM OF IT ,
OVERLOOKING HOWEVER ,
HOW TRULY ORDINARY IN TRUTH
ALL THOSE STARS ARE !
AND ALLOWING THEIR LACK OF IDEALISM
TO BE SUPERSEDED BY OTHER PEOPLE'S
NONPRESENT IDEALISM ON ACCOUNT OF
THEIR PROMINENCE MAKES EVERYTHING
LOOK EVEN DARKER IN LIFE ,
AS THOUGH LIFE CONSISTED IN FAME !
IS THIS WHY IT IS SO
DARK IN THE HUMAN WORLD ?
AM I THE ONLY PERSON TO APPREHEND
DARKNESS IN THEIR LIGHTNESS ?
OR WHY IS SO DARK IN THIS WORLD ?
SOMETHING LIKE THAT NEEDS TO BE
SHRUGGED OFF AS SOMETHING
INEXPLICABLY RATIONAL ,
WHENCE I HAVE ALWAYS THOUGHT MYSELF
IRRATIONAL IN NOT GROVELLING BEFORE
THOSE WHO ARE EVEN MORE ORDINARY
THAN ALL THE OTHER ORDINARY
NON-FAMOUS PEOPLE ARE !
IT IS IN PARTICULAR THOSE
ALL-IMPORTANT DIGNITARIES
WHO TASTE OF METHYLATED SPIRITS
IN A MOST ACRID AND NAUSEATING FASHION !
SO MUCH FOR CLEANLINESS !...
VENERABLE ANCIENT SHADES
HOVERING OVER THIS LAKE
THAT IS NO MORE AND OF WHICH I AM PART
THE WORLD AROUND ME FADES
I DISPEL ALL THOSE BLANK AND GRAINED
IDEAS MAKING UP HUMAN EXISTENCE
I AM NO MORE
I DREAM
AND HOPEFULLY I WILL NEVER TURN BACK
SO AS TO SEE THAT BLANK AND GRAINED
HUMAN EXISTENCE AGAIN
WHICH CAUSES LIFE TO BLUR SO MUCH
THAT I AM NO LONGER IN A POSITION
TO SUFFER FOR THIS MUCH GUILT ,
WHAT IS LIFE ?
AMEN !...”

“PART 2
LEAVE !
DISAPPEAR !
ALL OF YOU , THAT NO LONGER
MAY I BEHOLD YOUR PAIN OF BEING !
RUN TO THOSE WHO ARE LIKE YOU ,
THOSE CAMP FOLLOWERS TO COMFORT ONE ANOTHER ,
AND WHO TAUGHT YOU HOW TO EXIST ,
SOMETHING THAT YOU READILY ADOPTED ,
MINDLESS AS YOU ALL ARE ,
AND ROUSE THAT JOY AND ENTHUSIASM OF TOGETHERNESS
WHICH IS SO ESSENTIAL TO YOUR LIVES AND
WHICH APPERTAINS TO YOUR VERY DEFINITION
OF BEING HUMAN AND HENCE OF BEING ALIVE ,
WHENEVER YOU FEEL DEJECTED
SO THAT CAN BUCK EACH OTHER UP
BY ALL OF YOU CONFORMING TO THOSE LAWS
WHICH YOU HAVE ESTABLISHED AS YOUR '' TRUTH ''
AND WITH WHICH YOUR EXISTENCE HAS BEEN REPLACED ,
KNOWING ONE ANOTHER BY THE ONE PROPERTY
OF ALL OF YOU BEING CONFORMISTS
THAT YOUR CONFUSION OF NOT KNOWING
WHO YOU ARE MAY BE DISPELLED !
FOR IS IT NOT DISTASTEFUL TO EVERY SINGLE ONE
OF YOU TO FIND THE PATH TO YOURSELF ,
AND THEREFORE TO BE YOURSELF ?
WHAT DOES THAT SIGNIFY BEING YOURSELF ? , BUT TO
STOP REPRESENTING SOMEONE ELSE'S THERORY ,
SOMEONE ELSE'S DOCTRINE , SOMEONE ELSE'S
LAW WHICH YOU FOLLOW OBEDIENTLY IN
YOUR NESCIENCE AND IN THE TERRORS OF
YOUR MIND OF NOT KNOWING WHAT ELSE TO DO ,
SOMETHING THAT YOU SHARE WITH YOUR CAMP FOLLWERS ,
OR YOU WOULD NO LONGER BE THAT ! ,
CONSTITUTING THE VERY EVOCATION OF THAT MADNESS
OF HUMAN EXISTENCE !
PRESS THE TRIGGER AND KILL SOMEONE
IN ORDER TO COMPLY WITH THE PITILESS
OBEDIENCE OF YOUR LAWS !
THAT IS HOW YOU HAVE BEEN RAISED : TO KILL !
THAT IS YOUR DESTESATBLE ONLY TRUTH !...”

“IS IT DIFFICULT TO BE AN ACTOR ?
WHY ? ? ?
ALL HUMAN BEINGS ARE ACTORS ,
THEY HAVE ADAPTED TO PLAYING SOME
BESOTTED TREACHEROUS ROLE IN THE HUMAN
WORLD WITH THEIR GROUND BEING SO
TREACHEROUS THAT YOU ARE BOUND
TO FALL INTO THEIR GAPING CHASMS
OF ROLE-PLAYING IF YOU DO NOT LOOK OUT !
BUT IT IS DIFFICULT TO BE A HUMAN BEING !
AND AS TO THE LATTER ,
I HAVE NEVER MET ONE , NEVER SEEN ONE
AND I NEVER WILL ! AND WHO CARES ?
I AM NOT HERE ANY MORE !
YOU LIKE TO FLY KITES , DON'T YOU ?
CAN YOU SEE ME UP ON THE MOUNTAIN
BEYOND ALL THE MOUNTAINS IN THIS WORLD ?
I AM A KITE MYSELF , FLYING FREE IN THE AIR
WHERE THE AIR I BREATHE IS NO MORE REAL
AND YOUR EMOTIONS REPRESENTING YOUR
DULLNESS'S NOTHING HAVE ALL DISPERSED AND WHERE THAT BLANK MACHINERY OF YOUR
HUMAN RESOURCEFULNESS SERVING AS REINFORCEMENTS AS REGARDS YOUR CREATION,
CURDLING THE BLOOD OF NO ONE BUT MYSELF ,
HAS EVAPORATED TOO ! DO NOT TRY TO CATCH ME - MY AIR WOULD BE TOXIC TO YOU ,
AS YOURS OF YOUR AUTHORSHIP'SINVENTION IS TO ME WHERE YOU ARE MERELY CAPABLE OF TELLING WHAT A MISBEGOTTEN RACE YOU ARE WITH YOUR AVENGER INFERIORITY COMPLEX !...”
