blog june 2011

Welcome to the chaotic and often strange life of Dan Abernathy. This is my platform for random thoughts, often meandering and incomplete, rants, praise, love, words of no meaning, and words of too much meaning. This is my voice. It is my collection of oddities, fascinations, photographs, desires, and obsessions – a road map of sorts, tracking a vagabond who walks in dreams of a pure, hedonistic life. This is a place to keep those interested informed not only of what's happening in my life, but also what is igniting in the gray matter of my mind. Hopefully, you will get a glimpse into the state of my chaos and confusion. Here there are no rules! By entering and staying, you will be opening doors to my mind and looking in. Some will find this venture entertaining and filled with wonderment. The unknowing or unwilling to know will find pure confusion, fear, and bewilderment.

This blog is a love letter to everyone and anyone that may choose to spend some time here. It is a love letter as true love is honest and that is all you will find here, 98% honesty of who and what I am. The other 2% is going to the beyond with me, so the scholars and naysayers can figure the last bit out.

The Last 2%
I look inside trying to assemble the clutter of my life, past the dust obscuring my soul and see a clear vision that no one really knows me. I am seen by many, but know by few. No one sees the complete; each only knowing a small part. Some judge by what is visual, on the exterior, while others become intrigued and choose to learn more. Then there are those that choose to completely dismiss it all. To these people and the choices they have chosen, I cast no judgment on. Choice is the freedom that we have and I praise those that practice it.
    The complete, complex person that resides under the many hats we may choose to wear are really know by none. Parts and aspects of everyone are kept hidden and kept to the inner self, but a great comfort could be had if these parts, these thoughts and hidden actions could be shown to all without fear of judgment and condemnation. As extraverted and open as I have choose to live a life that I can call my own, it is only a 98% honesty of who and what I am. I have aspects known by few and some known by none. This 2% is going to the beyond with me, so the scholars and naysayers can figure the last bit out.

God is a vision of what he means individually, to you.
My god is vast, so all encompassing
that he could never fit into only one religion.

A Quarter to Two
Late at night, the clock on the bar wall reads a quarter to two. I’m alone save the bartender and a man from Alabama that is waiting for the fleeting chance of taking home, the last and only girl in the bar, the girl I am with. His dreams of want and lust do not bother me as I know she will leave with. Will we engage in sex tonight, hot passionate love making like we are use to having? I don’t know as I found a bottle of wine and we have witnessed so much drama from the night, which is heavily taxing on everyone’s stamina and endurance. Young minds and hearts, confused and influenced with vodka, beer and Jager are breaking apart. The bring drama and tears pour into an environment that really does not care, but we listen so they don’t feel the pain of their own miserable existence. A depressing and confusing way of living a life that delivers nothing but more pain and suffering, which is brought on and accelerated by more drink and stupidity. Young minds, drinking and emotions are not a mixture that is healthy to concoct. We know this, we all have seen this, but we forget or ignore with each shot of whiskey that passes over the lips. For me, all I want, all I care about is to be making love to the girl I am with, and to forget the meaningless and  fucked up problems that they must share with everyone and hope it does not replay again, tomorrow night. - dba

Why wait, procrastinate and put off what could deliver the most pleasure until tomorrow?
Tomorrow carries no guaranty for happiness.

The Embrace
Old mice nests, dog food, torn, chewed and urine stained pieces of newspaper are entangled into a ball buried in the bottom of my satchel. It has been so long since I have packed for the road, the dust has started to settle on the high spots. Now that the rats have jumped out of the gravy and left their tracks across the table I step out door and feel the embrace of the open road. I am gone without asking directions for the unknown providence I am destined to find. - dba

 Life becomes untainted when you do not blindly follow and indulge with the masses.
 Learn understanding rather than immediately judging.

A Strong Cup of Coffee
Dandelions do not smell good
but we pick them anyway.

Minnows will eat a cucumber
if you peel it for them first.

A long distance love relation would be better
if sex was more satisfying by yourself.

I was told by an old cowboy
that a strong cup of coffee was better than a woman.

Geckos will scurry up a leg
and eat packaged jelly on the table in Hawaii.

Postage stamps are ridicules and not really art
but some are supposed to last forever.

A chameleon is just about the only thing
that changes and stays the same. - dba
