who is diogenes and why should i dare to greet him?
diogenes the ancient clown of truth. the one who called bullshit on emperors, masturbated in public & lived in a barrel.
greet him and you’re confronting every convenient lie you’ve dressed in virtue.
who is diogenes in the feral jungle queendom?
diogenes is the stone that broke the goddess’s back.
the goddess exhumed diogenes from the base of the waterfall, laboriously heaved him up the waterfall and past the jacuzzi along the path to the cabin steps—where spinal twisting to haul up the steps proved too much for the goddess.
diogenes resides in sparse mysticism on the verandah of the goddess cabin.
what would diogenes want me to do today?
abandon the need to be understood. live minimally adorned in nature—and leave your phone behind.
