Ice cream man

I remember, recall my past, my brothers and me, so young, so small 

I do recall, childhood days 

Innocent days 

Rainy days, sunny days 

My memory is there 


And as long as I do 

I’ll never see the magic man, the ice cream 

So what if I don’t see the ice cream man? 


Has anyone ever seen such a thing? 

As magic here on earth 

Show me the one who says they have 

I’ll show you someone who claims and believes 

Someone who wants fame and fortune 


Show me a man who really loves children 

I’ll show you the man, the ice cream man 

He shows himself when no one’s watching 

He doesn’t care for your approval 

Show me the man who loves to sing and dance 

Loves the rain 

Loves the plants 

Show me the man who loves the silence 

I’ll show you the man,the magic man, the ice-cream man 

Colorful and full 

He is not a salesman 

He doesn’t wake up for work 


What if I’ve seen him 

what if he’s here what if you’ve known him 

But soon recalled and remembered all your problems 

Friends and family loved ones here and forgotten 

What if you all communities, belonging 

Mass illusion, confusion 

What if you moved in the other direction 


What if you all remembered to forget the ice cream man? tall and skinny, colourful and jolly, riding through your town singing and dancing, playing his bell for the children to sing and dance? what if we all had a new agenda

Social agenda 

Politics sports technology arts 

History geography 

Life sciences and that 


Curriculums, structure, answering the questions of how 

Who still cares about spirituality 

Who still cares about truth and fact 

When we can piss about 

Pranks and that 


Who still thinks about a man in a clown suit 

Who still cares about fun for the children 

Without hurting the children 

Who still thinks about a brand new way of being 

Who still has space


The ice cream man

There Was A Time Before Algorithms

I know it’s going to sound strange but there was a time before algorithm   Where we basically made our own decisions Yes it sounds like we were out of rhythm   But actually we got to use our brains   People met each other offline   It was a fun time   Of-course there was no offline because there was no online   The only thing online was our brains   Now of-course our brains are offline our phones are online   Not that there is much of a difference between our phones and our brains   Haven’t you seen you go to sleep around the same time you leave your phone alone   Can’t function unless you are one with your phone So if your phone is your brain   Then what will your brain do? Anyway people met and spoke and determined if they would meet again  At an actual location, mostly outdoors, when the weather was right And you couldn’t just unsubscribe at the bottom of the email   You had to have a tough real conversation   Or r...

Love?

  The world understands love as dating and owning each other, having a person. Getting married to another person and all that jazz. Love in this way is someone that I will be jealous over. Someone that I will use for something, to get something out of them. To the world love is the person who carries my burdens, has to deal with my demons, my aggression, my flaws. Love also is not the contrary of all these things for if it were then it would not be love.   In the world a friend again is the person that you use/ abuse. When you need someone to burden and then fight with. Tell them your petty fights at work and mischievous things you find yourself entangled in.  What then is love? Love cannot be fenced into a description, precisely the word love is limited, it’s only a word and can be abused and is used and abused. Everyone uses that word even when they are drunk and when they make absolutely no sense. They use that word when they have abused their friends and want forgiven...

When people genuinely love each other there is no need for boundaries

When we love each other we do not need to set boundaries. Love overcomes the need for boundaries. It is when there is no love that boundaries exist.  If you love each other naturally you won’t hurt each other. However when there is contempt for each other we will hurt each other and then we will set boundaries.  Boundaries are not a natural part of our relationships. They are like borders, they are created because we have been hurt. They are created out of fear. When you become aware that someone can hurt you, you have to create a border / a boundary so that they do not hurt you.  Living in boundaries is limited. Rather live in love. We force ourselves into relationships that require boundaries as we have come to understand relationship as synonymous with conflict. We thrive from the ups and downs of relationships and thus we need boundaries from the very people that we say we love. Is it not possible to live without hurting each other?  Do you want to be in love or ...
