-->> formless,shapeless ..
..water..

..i am still studying much of great philosophers as i can.. as my mind will allow for attention and the tricks it plays on me are in the minimal.
among the focus i'm trying to pay attention to is
Krishnamurti,Dalai Lama (of coarse),and once again..i'm phasing back into my Bruce Lee studies. It's ben prolly about 2 or 3 years scince i've really been trying to read and learn from the man. While i'm so scatter brain and am learning this stuff on my own.. i do my best to grasp it all. Perhaps i have more to feel ..perhaps these are steps toward some enlightenment i've needed. Perhaps i'm just thinking too much on this. Bruce Lee's impact on every person's life that he has touched is prolly as diverse as the arts he drew from to develop such fighting mastery and create a film genre that's pretty much been warped scince his passing. He is noted as the world's finest martial artists. He's a household name.. and perhaps within' all these things.. i'm so dammed fascinated at the pop-cultural of the man. While i may be a magnet for such things.. Bruce Lee is a little different than many of the other things i am attracted to..things that tease and appease my mind..connect me to the one's i love.. and make me the pointless consumer hoarding a mass of plastic that if melted down into a ball.. it's be larger than a trailer i'm sure.

.. but pop-culture within' itself and it's amenities is art. Bruce Lee..beyond the myth is art. It's also silly to bounce around the incredible sex appeal of the man. I know i wish i was that strong. And while i exercise all the time.. i know i need to exercise 'better'.. if that makes any sense. I'll prolly know i'm doing better when i can do push ups on one fist.. (Bruce Lee could do push ups on one finger..). But everything anyone could imagine about the work of art that is 'Bruce Lee' ..the agility,charisma ..onscreen and off,artistry,mastery,intellect,philosophical,otherworldly strength, adonis-ed body.. perhaps even more so than Michelangelo's David..the man reeked of perfection. No..i'm sure he wasn't perfect.. but the ability to bounce back from the falls and prejudices of this insane world, it's qute amazing. There are too many ways to describe such a strong yet gentle soul. I dunno.. but it's just so beautiful to me how all this has happened in the coarse of over 40 years and 30 years after his death. There is an art here i'm just so overwhelmed by and god.. i'll prolly be studying his teaching and trying to figure it all out til' the day i die. To touch so many people in countless ways.. my god.. how in the f7ck can anyone just not simply be awe-struck??
..or maybe that's not some people's place to let their mind wander.

..Bruce Lee is a lot of things.. and he is still with us in all his lovely family and all the lives he continually impacts. I know i can't say i will ever reach anything like that. But god.. i always wanted to look as good as the man. So gee.. even the cosmetic aspect of that has poked at mind. ..i dunno.. (yeh.. i wish i had abs as good as that ..guess i got alot more crunches to do,huh !! )

..whatever the case.. chaos abound. These things help sort thru it.. and i am still chunks of ice.. water flows so much better. Ice melts.. gaw i hope i can too.. this has to be another step out of this chaos.. and a way for my heart to be home once more.

-->>..tryin' to get home..

Trampin'-- sung by Patti Smith ..dedicated to angelic contralto;
Marian Anderson, arranged by Edward Boatner)::

I'm trampin', trampin' Try'n-a make heaven my home

I'm trampin trampin
Try'n-a make heaven my home...

I've never been to heaven
But I've been told

Try'n-a make heaven my home
That the streets up there
Are paved with gold
Try'n-a make heaven my home

I'm trampin trampin Try'n-a make heaven my home
I'm trampin trampin Try'n-a make heaven my home...

-->>..E.T. ..phone alone..
..wish i was that smooth..

..wouldn't it be nice if i could be the player.. ?? Swinger.. swingin' on the star ..pickin' up the moonbeans.. but yet they kick you to the floor like the child they treat you..pickin' up table scraps and swingin' for cookie crumbs and fighting with the rats. I dunno.. things just "ain't" right now..at least as far as school.. ok so i guess i better live with the fact ..i'm not a grad. Ok..ok.. well we're still looking on where to go. I'm kinda the peanut in the Cracker,jack.. (as if you hadn't noticed)!! ..Peanut.. but not quite "plain".. but more mixed and mashed in the brain like the chunky .. not the smooth.. but hey, there are more than 2 kinds of Reese's Pieces. But this piece is still breaking small grounds ..doing his best to maintain ..god i'm trying to find faith in myself. Damm code for my comic i've been pimpin' the PBJ on is spreadin' thin on my bread bucket. Lord i hope i restore faith in the M.. maybe i'll get lucky n' my Reeses will have heart with the M & M..
.. you never know. Least not with this peanut butter heart ..

-->>..uh,what??
..well i here ya..

..do they hear you?? do they listen to you??
is the perception of maddness blinding them ..and what they choose to to perceive is that everything is just ok and that everyone might as well have paperbags over their heads with big smilie faces on them.
..i dunno.. maybe this town does that to you. Maybe it's everywhere. Of coarse some people are gonna read this and maybe think.. 'O,tokka..it's just you..'.

..yeh ..maybe so. It's fucked up tho'. Now maybe i'm speaking too much.. or not loud enuff' ..or maybe i need to find differant ways to speak. But cuz i'm not normal that automatically makes it seem to people that i'm just rambling.

..ok fuck..

..I AM FUCKING SICK OF IT HERE.. AND I WANT TO GO HOME !!

..of coarse everyone has their ear filters on..so ..

..hey i'm hurting.. you listen to my heart?? Many people are hurting.. you listen to their hearts??
People are dieing.. can't you see this??

..maybe it doesn't matter. Maybe the papaerbags are easier.I don't know.

.. i can't get them to listen anymore. So.. it's these frustrations that make the work to get out of here pure hell.

.. but i'm schizo so what i know ??

..i know alot more than they give me credit for. Some of it i may be wrong on. But And alot of it.. i am right on.
..but they don't listen to me.
