Amnesia.
Sometimes we forget that the world itself is a paradise, and there has been much of late to encourage that amnesia...

Nose Bleed
Pick it.
Like a scab.
Like the walls inside your nose.
Feel it.
As it stabs.
As the feeling builds and grows.
Taste it.
Just a dab.
Just what dribbles from the holes.
See it.
Trav'ling Scab.
Trav'ling down beneath your clothes.
Viscera.
Like a scab.
Like the walls inside your nose.
Feel it.
As it stabs.
As the feeling builds and grows.
Taste it.
Just a dab.
Just what dribbles from the holes.
See it.
Trav'ling Scab.
Trav'ling down beneath your clothes.
Viscera.

"Microserf."
A little passage I found interesting, taken from a book called Microserfs. Written by great Canadian Author/Artist Douglas Coupland, the book follows a group of Microsoft Employees in the early glory days of PC - when growth was big, and Bill reigned supreme. Check out some of his titles - anyone in Gen X, or afterwards would, I'm sure, really enjoy them and appreciate them for their satirical POVs and ... stuff.
"Karla came into the room at this point. She turned off the TV set and looked at Todd square in the eyes and said, 'Todd: you exist not only as a member of a family or a company or a country, but as a member of a species - you are human. You are part of humanity. Our species currently has major problems and we're trying to dream our way out of these problems and we're using computers to do it. The construction of hardware and software is where the species is investing its very survival, and this construction requires zones of peace, children born of peace, and the absence of code-interfering distractions. We may not achieve transcendence through computation, but we will keep ourselves out of the gutter with them. What you perceive of as a vacuum is an earthly paradise - the freedom to, quite literally, line-by-line, prevent humanity from going non-linear.'"
