Noise box won’t listen. So, then neither will I. two can play that game. Why be designed to tare itself down? And if not designed, then programmed? If so by who? What? How? Distraction? From what? By whom? Why? Money obviously, is the easy one. But no doubt it is more sinister than that. And maybe not quite so boring.Â
But it doesn’t stop it gnawing away.
It doesn’t stop the incessant stripping down.
Knowledge of who and why will not save you from how. That is the bigger more pressing question. The rest will wait. It will come out in time. Or it never will. Either way that doesn’t answer the how that is messing with the you, and me, right now.
And we are left to clear up this mess, no matter which side of the well this falls down on.
And when we do, we are weaker and stronger for it, but not in some bullshit way, we just are.
It is almost as if it is only through our tragedies we are honed in some way that defines our deeper meaning, but some are too lost in despair to notice it and so miss the boat. Lost inside their own minds for an eternity of doubt.
And my noise box still won’t listen.
So, neither will i.

Sleepless Dystopian has been the home to Cyberpunk Dystopian writer, storyteller, mischief maker, and behavioural digital and data-driven marketing specialist Sam I Am for around 10 years. Mainly, it has been my dumping ground for my half-written, half-baked projects and my ranting of a political nature.
Now, though, I want to start getting serious here, to make some money from my creative outputs and to offer my services to fellow creatives, activists, and campaigners.
The idea is to create an Indie Publishing and Marketing service. It is a work in progress, but as a Cyberpunk, I want to hack the systems of undue influence and coercive persuasion, turn them on their heads, and use them for good.
This site is also a social network, so you can join it for free and join me on the journey as I rediscover what I am doing here with new meaning and purpose.
