SOME performance

Make your social media identity a spectacle. Make up and create a new face and body, a life and look, lie and live the lie. It’s ok, nobody cares if any of it is true or not. If you don’t want to lie, invent yourself again and again, but don’t imitate. Where does the line between truth and a lie go, where do your limits go? How do you define your limits in social media and why limit yourself?

Invent yourself a new way to express, communicate and be looked at. Exaggerate, write words as if you were writing a book or a letter, look clever as you have got it, like everybody else has not.

Make sentences that do not make sense, but look like the most sensible money-making scheme ever. Cuteness does it. That is the cleverest thing. Make an imaginary trip and take photos, be creative. It doesn’t have to be far away but it can go as far as you can reach, but preferable really far. Make your social media existence a happening. Invent an identity that is still you and what you think you are. Mix reality, stuff and surreality. Laugh, joke, giggle, do fun stuff. Share your emotions in an unexpected way. Emotions are all that matter anyway.

Measuring temperature with hand on one’s forehead for a minute. Tells something. How accurate is it if head is hot and hand is cold?

What to do on green grass? Roll over, light optimism is as expected foolish and taken for granted, light optimism-misms and isms, the night when I’m interested in the light of optimism and truth, light truth, lying on grass brings foolishness.

Truth, a carefully weight bearable word to be carried, no more no less. New grass, new always fresh, tended similarly everywhere, endless, industrial quality. Word no more no less, grass. The color of it does something to your mind.
