Think about starving myself Sunday, December 02, 2007

Lately ive been thinking about starving myself,
no its not because i want to lose weight
Just for the experience.
I was reading a poem by buchowski the other day.
yeah i know... buchowscki
but i'm serious
He goes though the stages
the first few days are the worse
then theres a numbness
then your vision starts getting clearer
you start seeing things that arent there, or maybe their there all along
Ive heard that the effects of starvation are the same as lsd
which would explain the indian spirit journey's that even my apache roots went on.
No food, for how many days.
I think it would help me put things into view since there are so many obscurities in the way.
most people around the world die of starvation.
Maybe i owe it to them to see what its like.



Uh, NO. That's just stupid. There are better ways to help feed the hungry than by starving yourself. Go to FreeRice.Org. It's a word game where for every word you define correctly, the site donates 20 grains of rice. I know that doesn't sound like much but millions of people are playing it. Do something useful instead of stupid.

Im not saying that there arent better ways. Thanks for that site by the way. But im saying if I ever hope to grow and learn as a poet and an artist im going to have to suffer in order to get a clearer picture. Purposeful starvation has always been a way of becoming less self absorbed and more intrinsic.

p.s. dont call me stupid. Ignorant maybe, but not stupid. [ShroudedinSilence]
