how insane is that?
by Steve Patterson



Saturday, February 23, 2002


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

my decision was made.
i would go inside.
to myself, My Self.
seek solitude.
seek the answer.
there where the answer must be.
it's not out there, so it must be
in there. somewhere.

so what do i do?
i go to the bookstore.
i'll find a book on solitude.
that's the answer -
i'll read about solitude.
then i'll know about
being Solitary.

beside, if i'm at the bookstore
i'm not alone.
i'm with the people at the bookstore.
maybe i'll find someone there
to be solitary with.

how insane is that?

think i'll stay here by My Self.
that'll let me be alone
and save the price of a book.

Future: The Spiritual Story of Humanity by Glenn Martin

Histories of the world are generally written to either celebrate technology and science, or to herald doom. My book examines the path of the spirit in the onward rush.
