Hatchet

- How does it go?

+ Left it's the left
- Hard-coded
+ Peace
- Who are you anyway?
+ I love sunsets
- Right feels numb
+ Happy now I'm happy
- Where did you go
+ What area is blacked out?
- How did you get here
+ Rational
- I'm OK, that doesn't hurt at all
+ What if it rains
- Irrational flow
+ What is going to happen?
- Are you human?
- Common sense
+ Lets play a game of chance
- Every seven years
+ If we need you we'll find you

+ Is that what you fear?
- Split brain?
+ Violence
- Fruitful life
+ Dull don't hurt people

- Which memory is difficult to recover
+ Complex problems
- Volatile relationship
+ Social proofs

Mask

lost light laugh box tick off tick tock
hidden thunder thumper dud light
superstitious over your body
I'm lick'n you now with it warm light
two orbitals shut it down to emotions
thoughts spark voltage drop take down electron
double-talk sweet slumber of reason
your own resistance, alone together alone all all alone
truth? ahha hhha hha
re re re re reproduce for ever
ego ego ego egotistical
touch space
beautiful ohhhhh let it glow all over the place
ghost let it ghost out it finished sorry
perfect system I can't belive my luck perfection
ooooohhhh oooohhhh opposite
feel cold crack chatter code
brillllllliant
you all always yes yes feel good now good
reflect my image thank you reflect my image thank you
endless endless endless end justifies means
heavenly deception
it's coming down now now now now
watch watch watch light... watch the light... watch the light... spread
yes no yes no yes no yes no
think the light
blink out feelings
flip the box we love you we hate you flip flip out the box
diamond dream time clusters red flag
optimistic feel hot
evil radiant pressure smell numbers
what's your temperature
I can't see the light balance flash incandescent
high energy level word light downlines lost dream
don't need facts believe
crazy broken system infinity no exit
confess paradise paradise
suspend good power individuality?
notice contradictions notice contradictions
electrons harmonic oscillation
you are all the same
excited sun irradiate
irrational ugly taste time
crystal total isolation isolation

Trunk

Who’s doing the thinking now?
The big head, or the little head?
I think the wrong head is thinking.
Thinking with the wrong head.
Awareness.
Oh skin, skin inside out. Inside outside inside
When does it stop?
Someone’s gonna get hurt.
Manipulation. That’s what I said.
Manipulation that’s what I meant
That’s right. Longer. Longer,
Longer than it is wide.
No place to hide.
Boxed.
Busted the thrust of the argument fizzled out.
There is no more logic.
Genital, that’s what I said genital.
Some more goo goo. Goo goo, figured you out
Fingered you, your crime
The primary source of pleasure.
Which of the following describes you best?
Mellow angry amusing mysterious stumped.
Stumped. I’m stumped.
The little head’s doing the thinking for the big head.
It’s doing the big thinking.
Someone’s going to get hurt.
Look at the size of that thing.
Will you look at the size of that thing!
Ooh I want to chop it down.
Disappointed daddy
You lack
Oh you can’t touch it please don’t
Touch it
Too sensitive
You’ve got nothing on me
Don’t touch
I’m longer
…Quite possibly scare people.
Yeah, you heard me right.
I’m long on the North Pole.
It’s so drastic and impulsive
I went across the street and
…you’re on fire
Crossing the street now my…
Excessively
Bigger, badder, bolder, stronger
What stage are you at?
Oedipal, Electra?
Someone is going to get hurt. You’ve got the little head
Thinking the big thoughts.
And the little head is thinking the big thoughts
And the big head is
Suspicious and frigid.
They’re laughing behind your back
I’m disappointed…
Please, please don’t cut me down.
Don’t cut me off I need you to be me
To be you to be me to be you to be me…
Anxiety, anxiety.
Successful resolution to conflict what did you expect?
You’ve got the wrong head thinking
Castration
That’s what I said
I’ll repeat myself clearly
I have all kinds of friends in different shapes and sizes
Envy void
Woid out that last statement
Envy the void
Longer than it is wide
It’s the skin on the inside and the outside and
Hey, where did you get that thought anyway?
What were you thinking?
Agamemnon, Agamemnon, Agamemnon
Heavily repressed unconsciously suppressed
So so long
So long ago so long
You can’t get past it
So so very very wide
You cannot get around it.
People like me
People like me
I think someone’s gonna get hurt
Someone’s gonna get hurt.

Crutch

Laugh if you have to.
You can laugh if you have to.
It’s not very kind of you,
You’re not sharing the sugar.
Mmm
Thank you,
I like it.
I do.
That’s not a moral condition.
It changes in synaptic weight.
Synaptic structure and that underlying memory…
The longest-lived alteration in biology.
Ahh, it’s delicious.
I like this.
Will power—I don’t know about it.
Will power…
Loss of control.
You got your tongue hanging out don’t you.
You got your tongue hanging out.
You lost control.
Mm hmmm.
Cognitive control may erode.
I can’t help that. I can’t help you.
I’ve been licked by the system.
Let me have a taste, just a little taste.
I don’t need you.
Mmm.
Mm hmmm.
Impulsive actions,
Redirect the organism.
I feel your tongue.
Top down control, I have it.
A mirror…
Mirror is a…
It’s not a moral condition.
I’m not tasting will power.
You’ve got your tongue hanging out don’t you?
Yeah, tastes like victory doesn’t it?
I don’t need it. I don’t need it, I want it.
I don’t want it, I need it.
It’s just a cognitive thing.
Give me a taste I like it like that.
Are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?
Bottom-up factors…
What are your bottom-up factors?
Yeah, who’s behind the curtain?
Who’s behind the curtain?
Intervene between…
Intervening between the cells the synapses and the circuits.
Let me taste that.
Dopamine, yeah.
Mmm.
Thank you.
I like it…
Somewhat fuzzy
family friends and caregivers act as an external prosthesis.
Food.
Clothing.
Shelter.
I want to be a diverse organism, just like you.
Give me a tongue lashing,
I like it.
Chronic abstinence punctuated by extreme memory loss.
I’m flexible to the changing situation.
Cognitive,
Emotional,
I like it.
I do, I like it.
It’s delicious, tasty.
I trying to work in the system.
I’m trying to work within the structures, shape-shifters…
That’s not very kind of you.
Laugh, laugh all you want—but I like it.
…The platter clean…

power I have your power
affect intensity blow a fuse
a ringer for his father

mutualist
a pattern of life? no pattern at all
to become extremely angry to go through the roof
a dull heavy stupid fellow a dolt
pompous fool vain aggressive stupid person
creeps goose bumps we need fright

freedom
a contestant dishonestly entered in to a competition
balls black balls
backdoor jitter
wussy wuss wimp pussy
bang banged banging bangs barf bash beef bellyache
a whining complaint
