Nikola Tesla
How can you channel something that you can not see?
that is electricity
for centuries people could not see it or channel it
if it wasn't for a few people
we would still be in the dark
i mean, there would be less light to humanity
the only light people knew came from the sun,
moon and stars at night
then someone came along, there were others that came before,
Yet
Nikola Tesla
boy, does he cut a romantic figure with some from my generation
the stories about him are the stuff of legend, just google it
crazy mad scientist, genius loner, speaking to pigeons,
communicating with aliens from distant realms,
well of course you can't believe all legends, right?
Somehow I believe most of the Tesla stories though
dedicated and obsessed, alone
I can relate to this
and I'm nowhere near as intelligent as him,
yet, who is?
i go outside and think about a man sitting somewhere alone
at night, thinking of strange and unusual things
I relate to this
things other people don't want to think about
electricity is everywhere
i mean the guy made a 130 foot long lighting bolt, with one of his coils
he did shit that was something out of the imagination of Stan Lee.
Close to a real life superhero.
Can you believe this guy was asexual and celibate his whole life?
How come guys like this don't reproduce?
Well, if it wasn't for Tesla I might be typing this by candlelight
and the nights would be much duller
why this guy doesn't have a national holiday, i will never know,
But i do know if he never existed, the nights would be a whole lot
duller
So
Thank you
Mr. Electric Man
Tesla
