Hallucinating

~ Gottfried

A hallucination is a fact, not an error. What is erroneous is judgement based on it. There is something inscrutable about the collective loss of reason. If enough eyes experience the same hallucination, it turns into a truth. If enough people laughed at the same misery, it becomes a funny little joke. Being sick is like being on a rollercoaster, but without the excitement or fun.

A certain degree of high fever will unlock the most insane levels of hallucinations. Hallucinations are my normal. Wounds are my high. Acting is not far from mental disease. An actor works on splitting his character into others. It is some kind of schizophrenia. Maturing is realizing that some of your favorite movie stars are sick in the head. And rightly so.

Vision without execution is hallucination. Are you seeing anyone? Like a hallucination, therapist or a guy? Life contains but two tragedies. One is not to get your heart’s desire; the other is to get it. I have voices in my head but they’re all speaking Spanish so I have no idea what they’re saying. It’s probably for the best though. What’s a “Matar” by the way?

Reading is just staring at a dead piece of wood for hours hallucinating. A neurotic is a man who builds a castle in the air. A psychotic is the man who lives in it. A psychiatrist is the man who collects the rent. One thing that puzzles me the most about humans is their conscious effort to be connected with the object of their affection even if it kills them slowly from within.

The Internet is a hallucination. One of the best humanity has ever generated. I was unsure about my driving skills, so I put a bumper sticker on my car that says ‘I brake for hallucinations.”Insanity is believing your hallucinations are real. Religion is believing other people’s hallucinations are real. No man is happy without a delusion of some kind. Delusions are as necessary to our happiness as realities.

Human beings are funny. They long to be with the person they love but refuse to admit openly. Some are afraid to show the slightest sign of affection because of fear. Fear that their feelings may not be recognized, or even worse, returned. Memory creates a hallucination of the past, desire creates a hallucination of the future. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people don’t shoot their husbands.

They stab them.

        Back After 9/11 When the Version
        of an SUV i Commuted 30 Miles Each
        Way Every Work Day got 17 Miles to The Gallon

        Fast Forward 23 Years to the Day and it is Still Three Dollars
        A Gallon Difference Being An CRV Hybrid SUV getting 42 Miles

        to the Gallon and

        Icing on the Cake

        Some Folks Make
        Their Decisions based
        on the Price of a Gallon of Gas

        Others are Proud to Be Martyrs to Die

        And Some How or Another Some of Us
