ineffable:
my humble bigotry that within all life inherent, is the quintessence,
none-like-such-before-or-ever-after-or-again gem, of the numinous
manifold in each of us . . . thinking of the silence greeting The
Gettysburg Address then thought a prayer for which no one applauded
wondering what Abe thought, felt, intuited, sensed himself sine qua
non used as a stylus upon the flesh of American history prerequisite
lost beneath the whoredom prostitution of love as word, fact, ideal:
for profit political office as idolatry.
In
passing just yesterday my only exposure to commercial broadcast media
in the men's locker room uttered my despair 'jesus died in vain'
enslaved to pretended power and force as before
Your
daily life is your temple and your religion. When you enter into it
take with you your all.
Kahlil
Gibran
What
will be will be wandering these ecstatic moments blessed can it get
any better than this?
Flawed,
begrimed, imperfect, fondling my zealous fanaticism preaching
forgetting the point to merely be here now
She
said yes with caveat you must audition before a committee of friends,
relatives, associates envisioning myself Bojangles tapping up and
down the stairway to heaven laughing flipping my straw boater
twirling a cane Ginger Rogers awaiting the verdict
'tis
a gift to be simple, to be free, to know 'free will' as terror
responsible participatory . . . to lay up or loose upon all creation
the power of love The Golden Rule
in
all we do rendering self-portraits indifferent or something else
nothing
definitive least you define yourself as true to what, why, when,
where, how this moment in time unending gleaned by random association
not really chance at that reminiscent the endless story of love a
four letter word fictive or fact
“The
man who fears nothing is as powerful as he who is feared by
everybody.” - J. C. F. von Schiller ('man':
as in all mankind; meaning persons not genders)
