The Eightfold Path of Chaos Jean-Marc I Akerele

So what can I tell you? I am a greedy soul. I am a glutton for life and all its myriad permutations, gorging myself on the fruits of our collective psyche. I have feasted upon many archetypes and have found them rather tasty. The temptation to kneel in obeisance to this mighty emperor is great, but the Eightfold Path of Chaos teaches us to give fealty only to ourselves. So I choose to follow the path laid down by my pure will, made of flesh, bone and muscle, eschewing every last ounce of the fanatical, the maniacal and the satirical drive for success. It is a bondage that I will not submit to, for it is not the path that your mind wills your legs to step on, instead it is the hard, black and unyielding asphalt that was laid down by the elements into a wilderness abounding with stimuli that must be tamed. It is not enough to germinate in the black Earth, for without the strength to push through the dark confines into the light, one risks a life of vegetative revulsion, a composting useful only to those other intrepid voyagers who had the strength to seize what was offered and perform their Great Work. Carpe diem, seize the day!
