Freedom Through Martyrdom
If I jump, will you catch me
If I cut, will you heal me
If I swing, will you lower me
If I die, will you help me
If you free me, am I still me
Flying is a construct of the mind
Sleeping is a creation of a coma
Bleeding is an invention of the body
Dying is an occurrence of a life
Why not expedite rather than suffer like a troglodyte
Why not release rather than be a feast for others
Spinning is a construct of the world
Fainting is a creation of pressure
Experience is an invention of a system
Hurting is an occurrence of living
Rather lead by example than follow by ordinance
Rather fall by following than decide to lead
Do I stand for anything
Do I fall for anything
Does "myself" mean anything
Am I just a figment of imagination
Am I alive if I'm no longer living
Questions left unanswered are facts
Facts left unquestioned are lies
Martyrdom is self-indulgence
Suicide is an example
Leadership is created through pressure
Existence is a lie of leaders
Swallowed allowed by followers
Freedom is understatements
Draped in shallow understanding
My life is a lie
Heavy-handed arguments go ignored
If I cut, will you heal me
If I swing, will you lower me
If I die, will you help me
If you free me, am I still me

Am I just a figment of imagination:
You are not "just"a figment of imagination—You are a figment of your *Own* imagination.
Does "myself" mean anything:
Your self means exactly everything that you grant yourself the allowance of it meaning to you. You are sign and signal to your own self. Be so consciously, and you can change both the sign and the signal.
Here's some old fashioned Buddhist stuff i recently came to a place where i could stomach myself, perhaps circumstance will offer the same to you

You are the only hand that has a hand in it

The apocalypse which, by my own hand, claimed me, turned out on the other side to have been made of rainbows. It's what remade me as i coalesced "back" into my "self."
