The Genius Of The Crowd by Charles Bukowski

there is enough treachery, hatred violence absurdity in the average
human being to supply any given army on any given day

and the best at murder are those who preach against it
and the best at hate are those who preach love
and the best at war finally are those who preach peace

those who preach god, need god
those who preach peace do not have peace
those who preach peace do not have love

beware the preachers
beware the knowers
beware those who are always reading books
beware those who either detest poverty
or are proud of it
beware those quick to praise
for they need praise in return
beware those who are quick to censor
they are afraid of what they do not know
beware those who seek constant crowds for
they are nothing alone
beware the average man the average woman
beware their love, their love is average
seeks average

but there is genius in their hatred
there is enough genius in their hatred to kill you
to kill anybody
not wanting solitude
not understanding solitude
they will attempt to destroy anything
that differs from their own
not being able to create art
they will not understand art
they will consider their failure as creators
only as a failure of the world
not being able to love fully
they will believe your love incomplete
and then they will hate you
and their hatred will be perfect

like a shining diamond
like a knife
like a mountain
like a tiger
like hemlock

their finest art

  2. Look at the way my pal Wesley Virgin's biography launches in this SHOCKING AND CONTROVERSIAL video.

    As a matter of fact, Wesley was in the army-and soon after leaving-he found hidden, "self mind control" secrets that the government and others used to obtain anything they want.

    These are the exact same secrets many famous people (notably those who "come out of nothing") and elite business people used to become rich and successful.

    You probably know that you use less than 10% of your brain.

    Mostly, that's because most of your BRAINPOWER is UNCONSCIOUS.

    Maybe that conversation has even occurred INSIDE your own head... as it did in my good friend Wesley Virgin's head about 7 years ago, while riding an unregistered, trash bucket of a car without a driver's license and $3 on his bank card.

    "I'm very frustrated with going through life paycheck to paycheck! When will I finally succeed?"

    You've taken part in those questions, isn't it so?

    Your success story is waiting to happen. Go and take a leap of faith in YOURSELF.
