you found me

in the middle of a cornfield

a bookstore

where else could I be?

you hypnotized me

with the magical red and golden pattern

i couldn’t see or hear anything

except for your magnetism

you guided me close to you

in a trance state, I grabbed you

caressing your pages

the words formed spells in my mind

Reena’s Xploration challenge this week is to choose at least 2 words of the word cloudy below and be creative. I’ve chosen Hypnosis and Trance.

I bought this notebook a few weeks back during a trip to USA middle-west. It’s a beautiful place with lots of cornfields and wonderful bookstores. I couldn’t resist when I saw this notebook, I had to buy it! It was indeed a magical moment.

For this week’s Xploration Challenge Reena has encouraged us to: “choose to do any of the following.”:

1. Choose at least two words from the above in your piece.

• Guess the theme and use it.

• Use synonyms of two words in case these words do not appeal to you

Or use the theme and/or words in any other manner you like.”

I have chosen the words: “wavelength“; “trance” & “hypnosis“. Below lies my contribution to the prompt, hope ye enjoy the read! 🤞🙏😁📖

ON A DIFFERENT WAVELENGTH

I came into the sitting room
And turned on the radio
I then adjusted the dial
Till it arrived at my favourite station
(That played hits from the 70’s & 80’s)
It was smack bang in the middle of
Video Killed the Radio Star
Blasting out over the stereo
With it’s own thumping hypnotic beat
If was infectious

Reena’s Xploration Challenge #272

wavelength, stroboscopic, hypnosis, trance, entertainment

The Cat in the Hat was back at the kid’s house
on this holiday day while mom had to work
He brought a big bag and a friendly small mouse
Having good friends and toys was one of his perks.

The kids want entertainment they told the cat
sending thoughts on a wavelength they always shared
The Cat brought a stroboscope, a fancy device
He thought kids and equipment were very well paired.

It all started just as some fun on this day
entertainment held both kids in a deep trance
Just like hypnosis, their grownups might say
is more dangerous than a kid’s groovy dance

But the cat was an expert, thats what he thought
about games for kids that were safe and were fun
He always kept boys and girls rules very taught

She kept staring at the stroboscopic light like in a trance

Her mind wandered light years away like she was in another universe

What was she thinking, what was her mind seeking, they wondered

Was the hypnosis working? Will the secrets be unlocked by this experiment

Will they find the right wavelength to unlock the hidden thoughts?

The light kept blinking off and on, and she kept staring at it like in a trance

Me In You

i’d love to have a stroboscopic device so i can measure how your heart works
for no single piece of electrocardiogram device could calculate
the massive amount of love you have for a daughter like me.

i am not every mother’s dream for her little girl to be
i don’t like barbie dolls or being dolled up myself
i’d rather be where there lies a pile of newspapers to read
i’d rather be hypnotized by what it has to say ’bout the world we live in.

and that’s okay, ‘cos i am with you curled up against the pile
of newspapers, in a trance, as we struggle to decipher all of the crossword puzzles
papa, i’m okay without barbie dolls and princess gowns
as long as you’re with me in our perfect wavelength of entrainment.

i’d love to have a stroboscopic device so i can measure how…

Hypnotic Methods

There is useful stroboscopic form in repeated lies.
A designed hypnosis on those who seek to ‘belong’.
That propagandized system breeds allies.
There is useful stroboscopic form in repeated lies.
Who believes tales oft recycled is unwise.
Too few will e’er admit when they are wrong.
There is useful stroboscopic form in repeated lies.
A designed hypnosis on those who seek to ‘belong’.

Reena’s Xploration Challenge #272

Word clouds are supposed to be great for visualizing unstructured text data and getting insights on trends and patterns.  When I see wavelength, stroboscopic, hypnosis, trance and entrainment grouped together, it makes me think about psychology.  Psychology is the mental process involved with thinking about thoughts, manipulating information, forming concepts, engaging in problem solving, reasoning things out so we can make decisions, and this act of thinking ends up producing more thoughts.  The frequency of a wave is inversely proportional to its wavelength, so waves with a high frequency have a short wavelength.  The human eye is only able to detect light wavelengths from 380 to 700 nanometers, and this is what we refer to as visible light.  We are not able to see things with shorter or longer wavelengths, so we can’t see radio, infrared, ultraviolet, X-ray, or gamma-rays, which are all around us.  A man must know his…

indoctrination

The trailer is scary enough, but to really get a better understanding of indoctrination, you can watch the movie on Amazon Prime, YouTube, Google Play, Vudu, Apple TV or Sling TV.
