of it. I became reflective then, and I still am, as I recall how I’d
also experienced persecution for being different – and for me, like
Michael, it had to do with being more sensitive or more talented or
intelligent, or all three, than males are “supposed” to be.
Certainly those were the reasons that my father hated me, especially
growing up. He, ignorant and struggling; me, bright and athletic
without trying or even wanting to be, and having everything come easy
for me. Whereas for him, he had to wear himself out struggling,
desperately trying to prove to his father — dead, of course, one of
those “ghostly others,” I’ve been mentioning — that he in fact COULD
take care of himself…and a wife, and six children.

Reflections on Persecution of the Talented, Sensitive, and Unique; and Culture’s Sick and Contradictory Purposes
Part One: Fathers, Sons, and Everyone Inherits a Laundry Room
by SillyMickel Adzema
text + audio rendition created, produced, performed by SillyMickel Adzema
Prologue: Touched by Michael’s Story
For days I’ve been pondering Michael Jackson’s life and his tragic and unfair persecution for basically succeeding at what our religion and culture say are the aims of life. (See my article titled, “Message from Michael.” In fact, it would be best to read that article before this one, as then this story will come across as more like a case study in the kinds of cultural processes I describe there. And one will get a lot more out of this read.) I’d written an article in 2004 defending him during his persecution. I highlighted that article after he died in honor of his memory. Additionally, I published an audio clip of that article on Entertonement.com Read more at www.primalspirit.com I’d written an article in 2004 defending him during his persecution. I highlighted that article on this site after he died in honor of his memory. Additionally, I published an audio clip of that article on Entertonement.com, which clip is a personal reading of my 2004 article. I decided to do the reading for Michael and to do it with the flavor and style, also the passion, I’d intended for the article originally. This heartfelt, personal reading ended up including some updates and comments, some personal asides of my own, and some unplanned eulogy-type passages that came out of me, as I got caught up in remembering how Michael had been scapegoated. As a result of this immersion in Michael, I was inspired to write “Message from Michael,” in which I evaluated what one should take from a life with such soaring highs and then a crashing to Earth heard round the world. All of this got me to thinking about culture’s double-fuck on us all: First, in its brutally separating us from our source of life, guidance, and inspiration and creating a blank slate at birth, which would otherwise have been a map of life, with contact numbers directly to God and technical assistance angels — a kind of Jacob’s Ladder for when the going got rough; then, culture tells you to be an individual and aspire to greatness and puts up examples of people who have done so and made a difference for their society and the world; and then culture punishes severely any one who is exceptional and shows it and/or strives to do exactly as the cultural teachings were inspiring him or her to do. ______________________________

So listen to this or not; I’ve already received my blessings and my gifts out of this experience. They are there for you too, but it is all in you and up to you to reach for them, or not; and to decide if now, later, or not in this lifetime. All are correct decisions; there can be no wrong ones ever (only instructive or learning ones). Ain’t life great! It’s been nice swirling around for a spell in the consciousness soup with you.

Another way of saying this is that a life that is openly and unashamedly shared, like Michael Jackson’s was, is a gift to all that take it in. My story has that same unashamed quality of saying it exactly as it was to me, and so honestly that it has never been told this thoroughly and honestly before, as I never had been inspired to lay this part of it out this way before. In doing so I feel solid and rich; uncaring of the myriad feelings — not all good — that my authentic, unframed, “untagged” experiences will bring forth in others.

This story is told by me; and I am a person who has dedicated his life to self-discovery. I bet you don’t know many people who have a B.A., literally, in “Self-Understanding” from an esteemed historical university (not some b.s. biblical or internet fantasy u). This won’t be the first time that you’ll think I’m kidding and I won’t be. But to continue, I also facilitate deep experiential therapy, and have almost forty years experience of that kind of self-exploration. The fact that this audio and writing before you that I let come through me brightened my horizons even a little more is an example of how the richer one’s self-awareness, the easier it is to reap even greater rewards of understanding.

In doing so I feel solid and rich; uncaring of the myriad feelings — not all good — that my authentic, unframed, “untagged” experiences will bring forth in others. For that which hasn’t already been wrestled and forced beneath some ill-fitting “tag” is just a Rorschach test for all who view it; and so what you see in me will likely be far more your own image than mine, just as I saw mine in Michael’s.
