Notes by TK
Kyroot to :06. Is it possible to really enjoy what you must do (think)? Is it possible to learn from instinctive, forced behavior? Not for the Real Revolutionist. What is the purpose of the Secondary Level World? The Primary Level World is definitively, physically, finitely structured and limited, not so the Secondary Level World. Secondary Level World offers the only domain of possible change Primary Level World = what must be done. The more one pursues Primary Level World desires the more are they the sole reward. Secondary Level World is the only one subject to thinking more than you have to.
All movement whether Primary Level or Secondary Level causes friction (especially talk) and friction requires opposition; everything in the Secondary Level World must be “propped” up by opposition, bring it into focus, make it perceivable. The NS/brain must continually prop up the hometown team by declaring “what kind of a guy I am”. It maintains the boundary of individuality; between what you think and what you don’t think.

With the possible exception of this………………….
***
One guy says he can
always tell when his thoughts are beginning to
“heat up,”
because it always coincides with a
reversal in the polarity of his underwear.
***
Everyone needs a disguise,
but PL-LEASEEE – not one that even you can see through.
***
You might care to make note: Under the auditory conditions of the City,
the “final word” on one thing
is the first word on something else.
***
On one of those benches outside
the City library’s west entrance,
one chap looked up from his reading and mused,
“Whenever I read some poetic’s deathbed declaration
regarding, ‘Farewell and good riddance to a world
that was never my friend – I now go home.’
I always wonder just where they expect to be buried,
and on whose menu, they think they’ll appear tomorrow?”
***
All self-referring systems may expect SOME good press.
……. (For, whatever,
forgive me
for saying so – that’s worth.)
***
In a specious spasm of sophomoric cerebral splendor one guy’s brain told him,
“Hey guy – there’re two sides to everything.” and he replied,
“If that: were unreservedly so
then I would ask you to step OUT side.”
***
In the streets of the City
a man rushed by me and muttered, “I am too busy to be civilized.”
In the streets of the City
the City rushed by me and said, “I am too busy to notice.”
***
If you find it hard to pretend at least play like you can.
***
The opposite of something is not its reflection;
the reflection IS the something.
***
Another letter from the ole mail bag;
A chap writes and says that when he first started listening to Kyroots,
he thought I was his friend…
***
One little “new ager” says
that he is so estranged from his physical existence that he’s beginning to have
“out of the experience bodies.”
***
A man who describes his art ain’t got no art.
***
In routine City affairs,
if you’re not “getting anywhere” is one way to know you’re
getting somewhere.
***
Just off Broadway
in the Revolutionist’s mind it’s always opening night.
***
A fellow who’s been staying out in those woods
just east of the City says, (quote),
“Not having any particular
‘human emotions’
is almost as good as
not having emotions at all.”…(wait, this must be a misprint;
he surely [har-har] means
it would be as BAD
as not having emotions
at all………….. surely, [har-har] ‑right?)
***
Remember troops; There’s a big difference
in dying broke, and dying in debt.
***
And humanity related this episode,
“As in a terrifying nightmare,
I stood in the middle of a dark field,
incessantly washed by waves of unknown chemicals
while lightning continually flashed about me;
and then I awoke to discover I was not asleep.”
***
When the lawn party seems under siege
from guests demanding frustration and cynicism just have the band play that new song – you know the one
“Three-Dimensional Change Is Just An Aftershock Anyway.”
***
All progress is some progress.
A City philosopher,
on leave and over a crisis,
gives his view that man’s deity
provided the term ” god damn”
as his contribution to the
“overall-acknowledgement-of-the-inevitable”.
***
A short Kyroot
is the same as a long one – except shorter.
***
If it weren’t’ t for talk
modern men wouldn’t have much.
***
In this one big City
a spokesman stood at their boundary and declared,
“We as a people are smarter than we know.” And
just over the line in an adjoining state a figure
came forward and proclaimed,
“We are dumber than we know.” And
a chap passing overhead in a cool air balloon mused,
“We may expect an attack shortly.”
***
The City’s unstated attitude toward secondary plagiarism is that if the thief improves on what he stole,
no robbery took place……………………………………………….. (and who can think and
thrive in that atmosphere and
believe otherwise.)
***
After the ole man’s death,
at the reading of his will,
one of his somewhat lazy kids who said
he’d “Lead a life of symbolism”: discovered
he’d been left a bunch of symbols.
***
Thanks to the freedom of the market place, and the inescapable demands of the individual consumer it is now commercially safe to say that,
“No ONE size bullet is right for everyone.”
***
One ole timer mused,
“It is surprising how easily
one can come to terms with hormones, a little further on.”
***
Those who get on the “inside”
tend to react in two distinct fashions: One group doesn’t mention it,
while the other shouts, “Hey, I’m on the ‘inside’.”………………………………….
…(Only one of these divisions plans to be there long.)
***
From the earliest possible age
one ole man told his kid,
“If you ever need help – come to me.”
but whenever he would do so
his elder would say, “Hey, it’s every kid for himself.”
And after fourteen or twelve years of this,
the younger said,
“If all you were ever going to do was tell me
that it’s ‘every kid for himself,’
why did you even bother to say that if I
needed help I should come to you?”
And the ole man touched his shoulder and replied,
“Awww, I thought you understood – the City MADE me do it.”
***
Okay, let’s put a wrap on this one; everybody affects everybody else
in some way.
…(Did I leave anyone out?)
