Let Zeus
H. D.
I
I say, I am quite done,
quite done with this;
you smile your calm
inveterate chill smile
and light steps back;
intolerate loveliness
smiles at the ranks
of obdurate bitterness;
you smile with keen
chiselled and frigid lips;
it seems no evil
ever could have been;
so, on the Parthenon,
like splendour keeps
peril at bay,
facing inviolate dawn.

Men cannot mar you,

Hypertext of the Ogden bilingual edition
Introduction By Bertrand Russell
Mr Wittgenstein’s Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, whether or not it prove to give the ultimate truth on the matters with which it deals, certainly deserves, by its breadth and scope and profundity, to be considered an important event in the philosophical world. Starting from the principles of Symbolism and the...

The flags were waving directly in front my face very early in my relationship. Whether I chose to ignore them or intentionally avoided them I still am unsure.

[CLUI] URBAN CRUDE: The Oil Fields of the Los... →
I know there are random oil wells all over the country, and in unexpected places, but I had no idea that they would exist on such a massive scale in the United States’ second most densely populated metro area.
The Center for Land Use Interpretation got it going on with this exhibition… and the other collections on their set look about as interesting.

May 2nd, 1998 - Dj ESP Woody McBride Starts his set w/ Toxygene by The Orb to get everyone pumping.
I was completely lethargic except for the space around this moment, and when Electric Indigo took the decks (after a couple of smart drinks to try to get alert)… All of a sudden, she’s tearing it up, and I’m in bliss. Wish I would have had it in me to stay later… Miles and...

Libra-Scorpio Cusp →
October 23 – 25 Drama and Criticism
The Libra-Scorpio cusp is an overlapping and admixture of the seventh sign of the zodiac, Libra, and the eighth sign of the zodiac, Scorpio. This is a period that can be characterized by the themes of Drama and Criticism.
A heightened sense of the drama of life, both in a philosophical and personal sense, leads to an increased awareness of the dynamics of...

25. beneath abstraction
There is a mystery, Beneath abstraction, Silent, depthless, Alone, unchanging, Ubiquitous and liquid, The mother of nature. It has no name, but I call it “the Way”; It has no limit, but I call it “limitless”. Being limitless, it flows away forever; Flowing away forever, it returns to my self: The Way is limitless, So nature is limitless, So the world is limitless, And so I...

Then said Almitra, "Speak to us of Love."
[from Kahlil Gibran’s The Prophet] And he raised his head and looked upon the people, and there fell a stillness upon them. And with a great voice he said: When love beckons to you follow him, Though his ways are hard and steep. And when his wings enfold you yield to him, Though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you. And when he speaks to you believe in him, Though his voice may...

HYMN CXXIX. Creation.
1. THEN was not non-existent nor existent: there was no realm of air, no sky beyond it. What covered in, and where? and what gave shelter? Was water there, unfathomed depth of water? 2 Death was not then, nor was there aught immortal: no sign was there, the day’s and night’s divider. That One Thing, breathless, breathed by its own nature: apart from it was nothing whatsoever. 3...

There are times when life is speeding up, when you can actually sense the acceleration of experience, the slowing of time, and the onset of those days you peak. Those days you love to have had, those days you daydream about, those days you lothe to compare yourself too when they are past. Days that are larger than life, they live on in memory past the grave, they recieve their own label, their own...

ego at odds
it was me not being wanted or needed or not being there if i was or behaving badly when i was the first impression… that night it was like the sun came out then in so many seconds swallowed itself back into the deeper dark for fear it might turn into a single tear of joy i said a number of words you said an equal amount or more i’m sure there was eye contact and - for my...

Water Remnants

there’s a younger woman, thinner, dark hair, sitting and working on something about 10 feet behind me, she calls over, “i could spin it for you… “ i’m a little perplexed. she says again, “i could spin it for you… just describe what shape you want” in a bit of a daze, i tell her, “thinner at the top, and a bit wider at the...

la pensée sauvage
we are (1)
carried up through the elements
expressed with motion
pronounced by the countours of our bodies
accentuated by environment and force
met with understanding
friction (2)
moved mountains conveying men
sitting in their dens or on the veranda
sipping tea
not really doing anything else
carrying on in wonder
fin. (3..)

If (you)
open your eyes (with what's behind them)
and jump
and drop (with General Direction kind of in mind)
again past familiar signs of trouble
eyes postulate (closed now)
and watch... observe
countless beautiful spirals of interwoven lightsound with themselves spin
your arms outstretched
air still offers resistance (please? please?)

ever: the new now
above all, i’d trust you if you said not now. the truth is resounding. no need to explain. but i wonder if you’d say not ever when there is a good chance. time changes everything. i love everything about you and i wish you the best.

Sea as sky
so, there is rain. this building seems to be made such that the natural elements affect the interior… rain hitting balconies collects in puddles in interior hallways. i think perhaps my guests are depressed because of the dreary weather and i go up to the roof to look at the view. i look up at the sky and i notice an arch-shaped cloud of ice that turns into into a vivid, shimmering rainbow....
