The Profound Ramblings of a Brilliantly Deranged Mind: The complete book.

By Charlie Petteway

A collection of random thoughts, and a collection of poems, I have written over the years. I have Bipolar Disorder so my mood reflects the way I write at the time. Mostly I write the "random thoughts" part when I am manic or in a elevated mood, the poems are primarily written in a depressed mood. Enjoy

This is only the tip of the iceberg so to speak there are tons more random thoughts once I get around to typing them I will put them here. Before you comment I know the formatting sucks line/page breaks in the wrong spots etc. I'm working on it, they were fine in .txt/.dox file this web page messed them up.

Most of this is harmless, however, some content may not be acceptable for all audiences. I am not here to tell you what you should read or what your kids etc. should read grow up make your own choices.

If beauty is only skin deep, how can it be in the eye of the beholder?

I am an artist, that’s my way of saying I don’t have a job.

I work at an artist’s pace, That translates to, I don’t do anything unless I want to.

Can you be an artist just because you say you are? Don’t you have to be able to draw, write, sing or something?

I look around me and see a lot of wedding bands; these people have found their mate.  I can’t even find socks that match.

She is beautiful!

I hate to spell.

Hate is such a strong word.

Why do we say something is a strong word?  It is just a collection of letters put together in a predetermined order just like any other word.

Some people do some strange things to their hair/body. Do they think it looks good?  Do they think it makes them a better person?

If you don’t want to be defined by the things you do, why do things that define you?

My car is ugly.

I have another car, it is not running right now but it is not ugly.

If you use work-boots to play in are they still work-boots?

If you work in say flip-flops, you may be an artist.

Edited for content how do they know what will offend me?

Editing offends me.

If you do good things, are you a good person?

I think I am a bad person because I am not good at being a person.

Why don’t they just make the cover represent the book so we can judge a book by its cover?

Is cheesecake a cake? Why not call it cheese pie

Death is the only sure thing in life, so death must be the meaning of life.

If you have read this far you may be as crazy as I am.

If you understand any of this you are as crazy as I am.

This place is getting crowded.

My mind is crowded.

If I am drowning in my own thoughts, why can’t I just teach myself to swim?

Ideas lead to plans, plans to accomplishments. So if I have lots of ideas am I a success?

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to be someone else.

What do cats think about?

I think I make people nervous.

I make me nervous.

Does Books-A-Million Have that many?

Does Books-A-Million have more books than Barnes and Noble?

I like Barnes and Noble. I wrote most of this book
