'The division of possessions in society is perfectly useless'. Suffocation and destortion are two things we feel every day in our society - when we're in a narrow, geometrical, cold and detached conference room, or even in our office, rented appartment or kitchen. Surrounded by a thousand objects yet feeling lost, disoriented and eventually claustrophobic.
Aufteilung der Güter
in der Gesellschaft
ist vollkommen unnötig
The division of possessions in society is perfectly useless
La ripartizione degli averi nella società è perfettamente inutile

Violently Happy - come calm me down before I get into trouble
Violently Happy - I'm aiming too high
Violently Happy - I'll get into trouble real soon
Violently Happy - overemotional
Suffocation and destortion are two things we feel every day in
our society - when we're in a narrow, geometrical, cold and detached
conference room, or even in our office, rented appartment or kitchen.
Surrounded by a thousand objects yet feeling lost, disoriented and
eventually
claustrophobic.
Geometry sometimes makes you feel uncomfortable. Perfection kills you.
What we hear or listen to these days are usually distortions of
something not even close to reality. Not even close to sincerity. I believe
it's because of cowardliness. People can't take reality - what it means to
really feel. They can only handle ambiguity and suspicion.
