    All but those things otherwise accredited were written by my hand, through the mestruum of my mind. But will never be my own. They are just passing through.

    I've never read Leary's Ching, but have read several other versions. I prefer the one in my Heart, however, and sometimes wonder if Lao himself wasn't just playing games with that guard as he passed his fabled way from one broken kingdom to the next.

    Of Vehicles And Their Inhabitants
    The Wreckless Driver​
    Fears to move in its own orbit, ​
    and so swerves into the orbits of others.​
    Fears to face the obstacles in its own path; ​
    thereby creates an obstacle for another. ​

    Deprecatingly ensconced in pretenses of compassion.​

    Hence the admonition​
    To build a War-Engine​
    And plow right through​
    With no further ado:​
    The Wreckless Driver.​
    ***********​
    The Changing Face of the Great Work
    All smiles and shudders of delight;​
    No longer mo(u)rning, the loss of the Night.​

    Shadows and sparks coalesce.​
    Chaos is such a bloody mess;​
    Finally learned to love it.​
    Shaman Heart and Spider Mind.​
    There is no other of its kind,​
    A whole world full of ShiT.​

    Finally learned to love it.​
    Will be still to ​
    Take its fill of it. ​
    ***********​
    The Sum of the Powers of the Spirit
    Modern-day morbidity is only a veil for generosity -​
    All these kind strangers teaching the virtue of severity.​

    A hand is numb, an ass is red -​
    A halo glow betwixt their stead.​
    Vibrations and reverberations​
    Resonate the springs of a bed.​

    Let's all lie in it -​
    Nod off eternity for a bit.​

    Pleased that GOD raised the scourge​
    To put the crook away in haste.​
    Now pass the salt and pepper, please,​
    To season this mutton to my taste!​

    But these are just playful words.​
    The victim always retains control​
    Of the ripened fruit of the So(u)l. ​
    ***********​
    5-5-2006
    When sin was a virtue,​
    I awoke to the Sun.​
    When instinct reigned supreme,​
    I communed with the one.​
    When Beast consumed soul, ​
    Gentle was Lunar caress.​
    And now again comes the time -​
    For sly smiles and "GOD bless". ​

    These Shadows, these Shadows -
    Though cast they are from obstruction of Light -
    These Shadows are my children,
    And I Love them, with all of my might.

    For had I come to my Self any other way,
    I should not be my Self at all,
    But a shell of being, awaiting the Breaking,
    And preparing my way for the Fall.

    These Shadows, these Shadows -
    Though cast they are from obstruction of Light -
    These Shadows are my children,
    And I Love them, with all of my might.

    It is good to hear from Brother Sylvan, even when he accuses me of wielding so potent a weapon as Truth. ;)

    Works the Wicked with Honor.
    Plunges through the thicket,
    Without regard for whither he goes.

    Knows: All roads lead to Nowhere.

    Wherein Abideth the Lord.

    Transmutation of GOD into the Most Holy, Hideous Truth:

    Symmetry is not Equilibrium,
    but only one aspect, facet or reflection of the
    Transfinite Nature of Equilibrium.

    (Axis, Axis: Eat the Worm!
    Make the slimy bastard squirm; ​
    Seer the flesh with Acid Spit.​
    Coiled and plunged into the ShiT!)​

    Symmetry is not Equilibrium,
    but only one aspect, facet or reflection of the
    Transfinite Nature of Equilibrium.

    (Spring!)

    Life is the Fulcrum upon which rests the Agony of Birth, the Ecstacy of Death. No other agents are we given through which to fulfill the energy recieved from the unremitting Consciousness of Not. It's Not that we canNot fathom the Existance, the Manner, the Method, the Mode, the Omniscience and Omnipotence of GOD. It is simply a matter of convenience that GOD fathoms all of this through the medium of we. ​

    WHEEE!​

    The Many Gods are not the One GOD, for the One GOD is NOT.

    (This breath having been expired,
    there will be no more inhalations.)

    Much Love for your poetic sharings, the depth and intensity of this thread is mind-dissolving... many thanks for indicating when you were quoting for so many of these eternal gems seem archaic in their newness.
