Midnight Pub

the sanctity of silence ^¥^

~wolfinthewoods

now that i am here

on my mountain-top

i have grown

increasingly reluctant

to disturb the silence

it's so quiet and

	
p ` e ~ a * c ` ~ e * f ` u ~ l *

here

i don't think

it's just this place

i've been headed

this direction for awhile

embracing the quiet

the solitude

as a book i

read recently put it:

"the right to not be addressed"

that's the thing

we are constantly

[[ I - N - U - N - D - A - T - E - D ]]

with

w o r d s

♪♪ S O U N D S ♪♪

in the past year

or so

i've felt myself

my being

oversaturated with it

the ever present

cavalcade

of content

arcade fire's 'infinite content'

resounding in my head:

'infinite content/infinite content
we're infinitely content'

and it's true

but i think

we're

mostly

infinitly

discontent

at least i am

so

i dialed out of it

largely

i think most of us

on the pub have

i've realized

that a big part

of what is missing

in modern life

is the quiet spaces

the spaces where i

can just

<<<think>>>

and

BE

not be injected with

another's thoughts

or the petitions of

a corporation

or the narrative of

a media organization

just be

content

to be

without

content

I really enjoyed reading this ~wolfinthewoods. Howl on, thinker :}

~inquiry wrote (thread):

Fascinating that inner content (being/feeling sense) is proportional to the inverse of external content (data/info sense).

Which, of course, says that infinite inner content equals zero external content....
