Writing Technique V: The Hardest Way / Writing from Trauma

Trauma is greek for “wound”.

This is 21st century. Such peaceful… Wow.

I dare to say a fair majority of us has experienced it:

Be it that you live in a so-called “underdeveloped” country (I do not dare to give my point of view on this), or in a so-called “developed” country.

This is what I am talking about:

  • Rape.
  • Bullying.
  • Social rejection.
  • Abuses during infance.
  • Negligent parents.
  • Other stuff that leaves you with a nuts family.
  • No family at all, perhaps.
  • Drug addiction.
  • Perhaps, and only perhaps, something that you did to another human being.

Writing from Trauma is plain dangerous. And we must act keeping this right in mind.

But, it can be very healing. Specially within a professional therapeutic context.

Assuming your last psyquiatrist didn’t attempt to murder you… (Please ignore this).

Then, we gotta keep it mind it is dangerous for two main reasons:

1. You are going to face your deepest wounds, as above stated.

2. Feedback can and most likely will be hurtful.

That is why, you might want to take your notes for yourself, or, with time, maybe even share with someone who you trust throughoutly.

As for the Technique per se… Well. There is none.

You, as a writer, are always going to write from trauma, exactly as you’ll live.

As an author, I identify my work with my life;

I just play things off.

Theist Manifesto: Page 5

Hope.

Resistance.

Endurance.

I have no guarantee this all isn’t going to end. Maybe tomorrow, perhaps one minute from no.

Maybe, perhaps…

My heart is strong. But wil it be strong enough to endure the next take, the next tachycardia?

But it obligues me. “It” does.

I have given it many names, but it is life; life-as-such.

And even though I had known but winter, yet sping broke in…

The truly truly true meaning of life

Huge respect. (Official).

This is a hell of a mistery, so we are proceeding very carefully;

First off, we are going to rely on Spanish thinker and author Ortega y Gasset’s idea:

“I and me and my circumstances.”

Let’s play out a real rough example (I like to use these because from my understanding they work better):

You are a strong man. 6 feet tall, “good Will Hunting” like IQ.

Not only you never had access to proper education or even good livehood, but you live in freaking Siria. A bombing’s just blown away your house with you inside of it.

What would that make the meaning of your life?

…And other reasons why the meaning of my life used to be: vengeance and survival, in that order (“surprise…”)

There is, no meaning of life. Well off, you very can give it one.

You can aim as high as you consider, remember, if your circumstances allow you to do so.

You can settle to a job that very could be automated, no family and no friends. But a dog. I like dogs.

And well… Your circumstances very can kill you, in the strong meaning of the word.

And then, there’s a “You”, a you which can make you take advantage of circumstances, experiences, that may had killed another person.

But this is me. And the meaning of my life is to universalize human knowledge. Or to die tryin’.

But, trying.

Playing My own “Black” Card

Monopoly Cards.

I was going to make a hell of an argumentative text on this so-called Pandemic.

Referring to contradictions on mass media, Occam’s razor, or even the fact that everything that has been said, from virus and variants names to designed images shown, are Aesthetically identical to the means Mercadotechnia uses.

I don’t have the technical maestry to word it, alas.

Although I very can say:

“Listerine prevents cavities and stains”, while the ad shows images of two things people tend to fear for two reasons, namely illness and social outcasting.

And, “Delta variant is even deadlier and spreads much faster”. And no, I am not taking this any further.

I am not even going to mention a Social Retroengeenering model of fear, mass control, and plain global terrorism or massive fundamental rights vulneration, if thee consider.

As for vaccines. Of course, of course Sars-cov-2 was a thing. Of course it was. It exploded, many people died and then fucking fade out.

Getting vaccinned against Covid19 has the same impact (or risks, everything be told) as vaccinating yourself against leprosy would have.

Now let’s see how long this site stand up for.

Poem of non-poetry

They are two and come home from partying.

They are two and she’s María.

They are six, very manly,

Who ignore cowardy. 

The men tell the other gal she can go,

She does without a doubt.

They are six and she is one.

What this game is about.

And after the barbarism, they left her for dead,

She very could have died that night.

She is one, her name María.

She is one, ill from guilt.

Her so-called friends made jokes on it.

Her family didn’t give her due support.

She is one, her name María.

There’s but solitude, there’s nothing but will…

To not die.

Abruptly, the seed explodes

Will.

Will to live. Will to Power.

She is one, her name María

She is one and only training exists.

She is one and her name is María.

She is one, and so there’s a God, so she trains.

And so years pass by..

She is one and her name is María.

Goes out in plain night, with suggestive wears.

She is one, and María is her name.

That night they were four.

Poor candies…

For she is one and María is her name.

She is one and remembers her training.

She is one and armed herself to the teeth.

Her name is María, as she grasped her iron punch.

As usual, she left nothing to chance.

She ensured they wouldn’t survive.

Thus doing favours to this sick world.

#ToldOnOnePage: Dedicatory and Page I

Told on One Page is a compilation of Microessay as said before.

It is, indeed, the first ever sample of this kind of writing.

‘To my great friend Mr. Socio, for not giving me yet reasons to kill him and thus keeping me from going to jail for such a shallow act.’

“Substantives

Must be the favourite kind of word of many philosophers. It is as easy as writing, or even saying one, to bring it into existence, from nothingness.

Yet substantives act not without the verb, which is preferred by people more pragmatic.

And what to say about imperative mode; Without it, people who for any reason are in a position of power, couldn’t act. Like when some bright spark takes things too far, thus giving you the right and the must to tell them off.

Although it might seem discriminatory, we are going to close on adjetives, these the chosen by people who give their opinion without any kind of consideration, that an attitide which provokes true hate and aversion when is due to afficion, and respect or even admiration when is due to their profession.”

Then again, people at Google, there’ain’t even no images in this entry.

Imagination Ablaze

It is. It is ablaze.

To transcribe, from this sheet…

Into another Writing Technique.

This is so pure.

Not a substace; rather an essence.

My mind is In Flames

Finally gaining control;

Mania over delirium.

Somewhat pleasant, truly scary.

The Nature of Imagination Itself.

Within my Imagination, Ablaze.

Ablaze.

Can imagine, far out from Existence-as-such.

Care to define:

Imagination: Faculty of the soul through which we humans can picture elements real or non-real, which would be of pieces of learnt reality, which very can be subjetive… Or merge them… And create… Then merge… Poetry.

And ultimately, Nothigness…

[BroTip] How to Lucid Dream

We all have heard of lucid dreaming at one point of our lives or another.

A lucid dream is a dream within which you are aware that you are dreaming, and thus, can explore the very depths of yourself…

Disclaimer: This has worked for me only, it is the first time I am sharing it.

The key to gain lucidiy is awareness. You have to obtain reliable proof that we are dreaming.

Here are two facts:

1. Within a dream, we are meant to not be able to read.

2. We are also meant to not feel pain.

Taking the first into consideration, let’s explore the other:

Strange things happen. They do. Both in dreams and waketime.

The goal here is to obtain proof within a dream.

Here’s the method:

Whenever, anything remotelty weird happens (it can be many things and varies from one person to another), bite the tip of your tongue, seeking for a little ounce of pain.

Eventually, you’ll find yourself within a dream that you have revealed as such.

Google. Images. None. Stated.
