“Allow Me to be The Lead” Letter to The University of Iowa

Dear University of Iowa Adminstrators,

My only semester at The University of Iowa was made cut-short due to a “setback” I’ll help explain away in this letter; firstly, thank you for allowing me this opportunity to tell you about myself, my current circumstances, and my goals & ambitions as a student & individual. As it stands, it is the school of my dreams!

I was approved a medical withdrawal from the Spring (2021) semester, during which working from home proved unbearably not in my favor (not how I feel now that I’ve set up a workstation that is my ideal place to be in general). As you may recall, the first wave of the Covid pandemic hit around that time, and I just so happened to be navigating through the terms and conditions of a contract I had signed with the CIA as of Feb., 2020 (right before the pandemic) but had no choice but to uphold, at that time, (thus by not earning credits, I was making good on my progress with The Agency; despite how that may seem to the university, please accept my apologies for not me showing more proof on this part of this matter).

I’m sorry that my GPA had a bit of a deterioration after that point, during the Spring of 2020 it was on its way upward as I had done so well in college that I de facto had actually peaked in life. Meaning, it was now or never for the agencies who had heard things about my prodiginous ways growing up; my mental faculties and intellectual security had peaked as an engineering mind who has made many mathematical breakthroughs since. But, so long as you do not ask that I hurry up and graduate and leave the school “willy-nilly” I have decided as of today, that I will serve you–I am very capable and motivated, highly motivated to improve this low GPA currently held with the University–But, even more important, I’m 100% capable of up-holding my promise to admissions to raise the school’s recently fallen ranking.

I was accepted to the college of libral arts and sciences in order to publish my highly original and quite cool, applied mathematics, that may be strong enough of a research case-and-point per force premise to do just that.

On a personal level (an insider note): My day to day does not revolve around mental health struggles these days. Thus, I would appreciate your understanding that I have no documentation to share on this front. The only thing that technically may be of some concern is finances, but I’m working on it. I may end up getting monetized on my YouTube channel, where I made good on my goal as a cinema major at the university. I successfully directed (and starred, as the lead) in the film I wrote and produced on my own. The movie is known by most fans as “All Memories Are (Essentially) False!” (2025). It currently has about a thousand views on Recast The Poly Math.–I consider it a masterpiece! So it similarly goes without saying, I’d be very grateful if the school would please truth me again with regards to making good on my promises, please give me this opportunity to prove myself in the field I already spend hours each day creatively applying (that of Applied Mathematics), I simply feel like a bit of a loser when I literally have no reason to leave the house; I even order my groceries over the internet and family is usually able to pick it up.

Ulimately, if the school is okay with me committing to doing a part-time enrollment this upcoming semester, (exactly 2 classes on the same days, about 2 or 3 times a week), I promise I will not only land perfect scores (most of the time), I will also immediately jump into finding someone to review my Mathematical Paradigm called “Ivankovian Recast”–I shall prove my work with Mathematical percesion and effectiveness to the point of certainty, serving to show proof of myself on the most advanced level and to effectively enrich your beautiful university if you only allow me to be a lead, in which both of us are worthy of much acclaim and shall continue consistly moving up!

The Madman Has Somewhere to Be [Scene 1 in Expositional Film Noir] by Jasmin Ivankovic

  1. The Madman Has Somewhere to Be

I spoke too many words without telling a thing when I was young. Pretenses that kept a cool suppression muted in the face of any adversary. The valor we disguised with pride and laugher that held an oath that we meant “it is necessary and sufficient to seize the waking life,” another mantra I held for some time, “to give life into your destiny!”

“The system knew how to eat you alive. Sure you’re not in command of the wind, the way things blow, when it takes fate to claim, for years I was safe, I’d recommend careful – and, you may quote me.”

You would have never known much about their psychic pain, their scarlet recovery from suffering, and then you’d most likely have to actually start to think the premise of my involvement was not about my role in the prophacy of mankind to understand this reality–a life of giving accurate solutions. IT WAS beyond me that their brains feed on the dry wallpaper of thoughts unforgiving, and find their roots in mild to severe discomfort, only to make them act on their undefined convictions through fear of controlling the shock of what they cannot accept that’s at fault.

Dee Contour saw them bridge the gap of inequity from foolishness on day two. On day one, they sleep, so the motif is set. But they nevertheless fight for resilience on day seven. Yet we both don’t say it to anyone – the consideration of a greater & sharper set of threaded thorns against life’s side-channeling with deepening cresent enlightenment: ‘FIND YOUR VOICE’ was discovered on floor five of the hospital. The day of wanting escape is around nine. Then their last resort to escape from these walls gets muddied by new faces before they feel more helplessness and the cycle is to resume. I fought to let these people find causality in their voices in ways that they need things to be shown & could make sense to them, for it was what evades certainty in the mind, to care this way. Dee Contour Senior has the gray hair to back a claim than could cause you to remember rapressed or just deeply faded memories of your childhood, which feels entirely new to themselves when you care this way – but lost on most entries where I hung my neon of “forever” before or until they had seen the reality of that in the light of dawn. “Look at that what’s on the back cover of the assigned reading:

‘FIND YOUR VOICE’ in marine blue, highlighter yellow, and deep red. No one knew what I meant by that.” Don’t try to filter it deep down just to forget about the good, the bad, and the madmen sacred to the environment enough to give something back to those who had not expected anything to be there at all. They share a sacred space here.

Tonia Nosa-Deth was a rebellious fifteen-year-old girl from Britain, who claimed she had been in love with an older man, resulting in her family committing her to the hospital where KDL lies awake wishing he were elsewhere, and by sending her to Davenport, IA they removed two of the moles in the scheme to put her into prostitution for this man – right after Tonia first heard the words “FBI” spoken in broad daylight, she heard voices (around this time) guiding her to follow her “internal locus of control,” and she had since dreamed that the bureau had already put her in a Covert Operations “training camp;” so I could relate that my experiences with the system had felt like something was larger than human intelligence & taking control of us, beyond any comprehension we possess, KDL explained that three people had stated that, in places such as this before, that he knows of, that these places often doubled as secret schools for operations for all sorts of target practice for the US Justice Bureau—played by the actors’ plucking strings behind the scenes in the shadows. The music was starting again.

I entered the downtown emergency lot on androgenic hallucinogens, toxins that keep the keyhole transmitters locked into a wrong loop of reuptake, and there I confronted eyewitnesses of other crimes that happened months later. What DO they mean to run from? “Nothing to hide, nothing to run from, either.” Only I had to think for a while. It’s hard not to feel nerve-endings twist with every ounce of my nerve-racking being at stake in the vanity of strangers who have things to hide. “Go home after you talk to the big guy out front.”

What you cannot think of is mass surveillance, so that the security to not be waterboarded in the living room of a squatter’s hideout. What then becomes of us but our voice? Within this sad & helpless era, another epoch of misguidedly misjudged losers calling themselves artists. We’re all directors. “I feel so/so.” We were all stray cats lost to be found by the well-wisher’s – so the love was gone with someone else’s maniac-esque prismatic light formulated glass pane fragments of blue and yellow, colors unrigid in their indifference? As it was (then but not now) the root of my emergence. Because our faithful directionality has somewhere to be.

I assuage we can agree that love for those we cannot understand will often fend walls that stand in opposition, from time to time – to allow them to exist in this state of counter-to-effort effects, efforts (or lack thereof) have made these individuals themselves.

“You know, It’s never so simple.” This was running through my mind a ways before it drew a last-day-on-earth kind of sound, thinking of my friend’s goddaughter who had a fear of knives so she stayed out of the kitchen during dinner, and left diners alone to eat at home during birthdays, and was horrified by my stories of interacting with a pika patient for hours at a time, but the fear-exposure worked. Here’s the gist: Young people may not hold themselves to their word, but the hallmark of an adult is holding yours like your life depends on it. To be afraid of knives is one thing, because yeah, at any time something sharp can hurt you & make you bleed real, honest blood, but to see the terror in the world post tragic event, after event can leave you in real agony.


“Nothing happened, you know, between me and this older gent.”

“You know my motto is not the same as my mantra,” I continued, “My motto is: ‘the madman has always somewhere to be’, but my mantra changes each day.” Here’s the realist response to the Copenhagen interpretation, “We become what we already were after time had brought us to where we are now,” or “It’s harder than your heart because the truth is in the way,” or “I wish I remembered all those places I’ve been, with the people I was with, the way it was back then, because, then, I would know what on earth happened,” etc.

The same light of gray in winter with crosstalk on whispering inside voices of libraries, I witnessed a murder that day. Then surely you saw it, too. With which you saw the first snow of yesteryear in red, waiting for you to paint with. From before fractalized-time exposures, they said so too into your voice (and whatever the trend to compromise), a story born of a tragic situation.

Broken-ness Spells & New Calluses [Scene 0 in Expositional Film Noir] by Jasmin Ivankovic

0. BROKEN-NESS SPELLS & NEW CALLUSES

As I was saying, “It was meant to stop eventually.” The music I hear is like shadows plucking strings behind the scenes; yet from my obsessions, I cannot break, because they got me here, right in my mind, the way it must be for my life to make sense. I was toying with alternatives as to how to explain what it meant. I mean what it meant to me, not the vapid routine of portraying the disorder of the obsessions, but knowing that I preoccupied myself today, tomorrow, this month, next year? becomes closer to me on a day in the UV ray emitting sun or lost streams of hot summer air & shade, with throughput made of this long-form mathematically constant sound: a delta-of-spells casting fridges made infinitely covered by droplets and carried farther out by the rain which came poised from some kind of knowledge inside me, at the base of it all. Like my little brother taking a bite of grass from the ground and a response made from a child signaling all those who witnessed it to start crying, I contend that I know more than I admit, honestly, watching as the rain left the death of a white earthworm on the pavement path from around the track where inpatient patients walked and smoked cigs during designated break times. I believe I did suffer from an excitation of 40 DC volts that caused me to get that haircut for 5 dollars US and say in a deadpan style that she could try and practice more but it was never again going to be on me and here’s five dollars and so I left in a hurry. I haven’t forgotten their work has to be done, that that’s probably a loaded excuse exercised in terms made less about my defeat (which hasn’t happened) for some doctor to make armchair notions from my brokenness spells, “We don’t know what your obsessions entail.” BUT even doctors on the fence still did say they did understand & agreed to try me on what I had in mind, “so we’d cared to hear it.” Albeit I’m probably not crazy, siloing into my own rite of passage. I’m here for the sole reason they claimed, not to digress: studying myself in enclosures kept far from an expected departure from this short-term mess, the mind of Kenneth Dawson Lee; being as easy as it is to admit that “I think too much in general,” but it is not the same as what I mean to say: “I’m referring to something that has a mind of its own,” so it stuck while I was there. To be honest, the tale of great insomnia turned ugly hysteria, was not an MHT scariest inpatient rumored to exist as singing songs of vampires and women he’d hooked up with, but they didn’t find to be crash, nor did KDL sound like his ideas would hurt you, which makes his heavy breathing at around 180 LB in Ecco’s and a yin-yang shirt stand out from that which caused you to think there has to be a rumor, at first. “I think too much without having compulsions.” To a clue to my relationship with my two-fold path of enlightenment. It was meant to stop eventually when I got there. When I do things like mathematics I, too, desire the ultimate conclusions; I know it will stop eventually when it must restart.

“What’s that like?”

The places where ideas can take you there, but no idea exists to take you back. “I don’t forget anything,” was all I could say, “easily or ever.” One way to find them waiting for a response inside, that feedback loop I fell in love with, I thought it was the kind that I know there’s not even a second in time to waste the moment. It’s there, you know you need not dwell, but you can’t go elsewhere. Anywhere is a place in a space that exists in abstract realities – “it ought to feel concrete to someone, yeah, Boo? Waiting for that friend on the other side of your consciousness to bridge the path you were keeping up with until it was time to rest. I know you cannot relate to this to the extent I practiced it.”  

“Creating Your Own Philosophy” : Chapter Zero of My First Novella

“My sources link the ultimate goal’s path to reason. He only realizes when logic & empathy are his only credible angle of nuance; the leader’s first discretion is the gravity of the better part of his valor and the next is a step-sequence in which he keeps a wavelength of himself, keeping the pretense of civility, as he had now kept it all for keeps.” I know him as my grandfather James Modest, a good but repetitive judge, who used to know the scientific method – once again saves humanities faith in human nature; an epoch of better legislation cascades forward, a brave new beginning to a new era emerges, and its all due his last ruling as a retiring Justice.

I was 18 years of age and despite how I trusted my gut, I held on to a pit in my belly, seeing it for the first time: a sculptured-bust of my grandfather’s candid grin made in 1981 with “heritage festivals” sculpted on both of the ends in honor of Modest. The moment framed the long-form picture of my baccalaureates program of study with no hard-and-fast rules. In an age when it remains the “status quo” to sell the information that our elders and betters “sold to someone else” and that much should’ve “taught us by now,” I remind myself of this day, fondly & forever, as it remains as the harmony made for the aim of “chasing, achieving, and displaying my ideal”. My consistent motive is to search for answers without realization-failures for making my first and only philosophy to be founded on the Higher, “capital T” Truth as it now remains my only (remaining) option.

Modest passionately defends the school’s cognitive beginnings, but more importantly all we can see is more downstream changes, falling as they domino off of one another, putting more dualities to rest by interpretation from his Abstract-eon Bridge, quintessentially by way of his clever reinterpretation of the Min/Max Theorem, discovered long before he was even born. But here we remain phase-locked to, in fact, believe more frequencies remain unknown to our conditions of prophecy – to which we owe the 21st century its freedom, only of a chosen generation that was destined to decide before and against the odds if and how to continue the great fight to secure either our truth or our survival. The truth is, we are mortals alive to live life for forever in a world of Either/ORs.

“When changed, nothing can change the truth back to where it began,” were her first words to me in class on that first day; yet, it reminded me of the rebel in my bones meeting me half way – how I imagined the idea of Love leaving claw-marks on me for the first time, was now no longer just a fear, it even showed its teeth.
