Premium Member Random Thoughts

Living finite lives in the infinite
Perhaps in wanting to understand We must abandon wonder Whether willingly for the sake of rigour and strength Or unwillingly surrendering to the unexplained In those bylanes in order to explain We study, observe dissect Practise reductionism to the last atom After that when the head rises up again Devoid of wonder, innocent lost It sees...

Premium Member Life is a lottery
We live in a matrix of unpredictability, your fate randomized at best by numbers shouted out by a bingo caller. B for birth marks, qualities and defects. I for inherent or sudden health issues. N for near death experiences altering your life. G for grand events that bring you happiness. O for obituaries and the inevitability of death. We can't take anything for...

Random Thoughts 1: Face wash
I wash my face twice a day Once vigorously As if I am exercising demons Residing in my pores And once gently In circular, sweeping movements Like I am washing away the crust of tears That have come to settle on my cheeks...

Seeing Spots
Physicists may say, 'Random is not truly random, it only appears to be,' but another theory goes, (according to me) 'Not so when playing games of chance,' (and I have done the sums) for this experiment logic states, 'The odds in favour are 5 to 1.' As I spy with my little eye, seeing spots and counting dots on a regular die, (these don't go to 11) the...

Premium Member In this tiny corner of random order, where life weaves its thin thread
In this tiny corner of random order, where life weaves its thin thread, There exists a vast universe of chaos, a sea of darkness and mystery that surrounds us, All people feel that chaos, a silent presence that shadows the edge of consciousness, But some hide from it, building invisible walls and refusing to look at it. These are...
