Maybe In That Next Life
The Brain
VS
The Heart.
If she wasn't such
a sociopath
she'd probably cry.
Pragmatic.
Manic.
Disease.
It only hurts
if you let it.

I used to gamble...
I would contrast "heart money" V "smart money"...
I arrived at the conclusion
that heart money is smart money...
(In the recent Kentucky Derby an 80-1 underdog won!
I was reading the comments on YT & people spoke of how it made them cry!)
I felt that...
There is something existential we recognize in such occurrences...
(The highest odds I ever hit was a 42-1 on a 6 team parlay against the spread...
I called that my "420 bet"... I hit 5 of six multiple times but the 6th... Well
But then I hit one... Twas madness... :)))
But yes... I think it is always better to be a bettor on the heart.?.
I think when you bet with just your mind...
You never really win.?.
But then there are no rules & there are anomalies to every rule. ;)
This piece is quite impactful upon my perception...
I think that one of the existential tragedies of being human
is the idea that there are processes, inherent to the human condition...
Processes that we are aware of...
Processes that we can explore in all directions...
And still... We are submerged in these processes...
I do think there are methods of transcendence... One of which being
The transformation of these things... Via art
... I... Think maybe I do not get depressed very often.?.
Or maybe I am just not in touch with my emotions... :p
But recently I was hit with like this barrage of clouds...
Like this deeply painful haze...
Something both: nameless & named.?.
I am still working through it...
I think that art is the reunification of the duality of the heart & the mind...
And in this way we might achieve transcendence...

I still gamble. Was probably gambling when you wrote the comment.
I feel possibly depressed sometimes.
But I shake it off. I can't afford to feel much. Lol and I don't think it's a bad thing.

As a gambler can you afford to be superstitious?
Also seven deuce is a very powerful hand if played properly 😉

Weak Vs strong,
love and cheat,
crying with feelings,
and
walking out without realizing.
Those were the moments. But I decided do not let anyone disturb me to take away my happiness. Your writing is powerful and inspiring.

I have to say, it's enigmatic, but also profound in meaning. We each walk away knowing the battle between heart and mind is a prolonged one.
Nice spill.
