Historicist Perspectives

I am a historian. I am my own story teller... and I am a woman/chicanoa/explorer gem... miscellaneous part-time teacher/mentor to the kiddies and the kidders :)... A literary encyclopedia; and a national refuser of all things nationally built and carried away.. :<>

Mind of Mine

I am an ongoing walking Book

My own ethnographer
transcribing each episode as it comes...

An ongoing living crisis...
My experience teaches me
Like my own private little parable.

The didactic imagination of prisoner #0000
Prisoner of the mind!

Sequenced truths, dreams, natures, experiences teach me
the same things and new things and show me where I have been BLIND!
But ignorance and blindness unfortunately I cannot always detect myself... No unfortunately most of the times I refer to some painful event with another human being that takes place for me to recognize how I am blind... Fortunately, these events are lessening in degrees of severity. But I NEED HUMAN BEINGS! Because they help me see my ignorances; that I am constantly pitted against as the self-absorbed little human entity that I am.

And in short I am a walking MIND that lives day to day in the constant struggle towards freedom. Freedom from the additional suffering I lay upon my experiences because my MIND, gets too wrapped up, and DWELLS. Dwells, dwells... But at least I know this to some degree and can live with my own beaten down flickering pain that comes with trying to navigate the distinctions humans make and my own ringing truths...

And that is okay... AHEM.... don't clap too hard... --------Author D

The Summer Thus Far... July 24, 2011 written entry in Journey

:) The Summer thus far; people coming and going. Awkwardness--discomfort.  Community Awareness... Writing here and there a little of you--O'--a little of me! (Rid me of this, Rid me of that)
Beauty, Restless Hesitation. Obvious Resignation. Beauty, Relief, Freedom agreement... Broke, remade, with stood, let gone. Come closer, go distant.
Delivering distance
Pain--Regret
Disillusion... The Figurative becomes ally, companion.
Figuratively AWED, inside and out of my MIND!
