#unbridled

2025-04-20

The expression "unbridled" implies that things can be "bridled." This implies the existence of a bridle.

The word bridle is not one that I think I've ever used, but I had an inkling as to what it is, and it turns out I was right:

I do so adore offensive things..

#Unbridled
debauchery..

Social anarchy
pissing down on the foundation
of what passes for normal conformity..

I can't ever be shocked enough..

Over stimulation
to my sense of propriety
is the opiate I crave..

Maybe cause I'm so damn bland..

My spirit of adventure
forever locked away in a gray prison
of self conscious paralysis..

An overly civilized citizen
always doing the right thing
as I've been programmed to do
by centuries of oppressive morality..

I do so envy the freaks and geeks
with all their flashy excesses
that go way beyond the boundaries
uptight peeps like me see only in dreams..

Unleashing our deepest liberating fantasies..

I do so adore offensive things..

Even if only as a voyeur spectator..

The things you find
during the decluttering process

Snippets frozen in time.

This forgotten scrapbook now soothes
my fading mind

Pics fully laminated.

Offering protection against the elements
and the ravages of today.

Locked in memories
where none of us age out

Even death can not penetrate
this thick veneer of yesterday
where cruel erosion is made irrelevant
to these locked in moments of joy.

Arthritic fingers
painfully skimming
long neglected precious pages

Liberating displaced images
from a bygone existence
of youthful exuberance
and #unbridled innocence
where we still owned
all our tomorrows

I gently place my nostalgia down
into the double lined trash bag
designed to dispose
of former treasures
now consigned
to the scrap heap of history
for permanent ignore
once our generation is gone

unbridled descend
hides behind evergreen's spine
slakes my thirst for words

@Lazarou Some call it "small minds", others might call it: go-for-the-cheapest-most-profitable-solution-without-care-for-anything-anyone-f*g-else minds, aka the odorous Musk et al's unscrupulous minds.

Photo of a wall mural, most likely not in an office owned by Musk, with a humanistic message that reads: Wrong is wrong, even if everyone is doing it. Right is right, even if no one is doing it.
