so you wish to humiliate me
spill some secrets
tell some tales
I suggest you don't
you haven't the advantage
you think you have
all it takes
is one honest word
to break an unseemly stranglehold
and sadly for you
I've uttered it...

there's no going back now
the door has closed
and there's nothing to do now
but go forward
into what grief misery and pain
to what shiny new dawn painting
a morning sky with fresh illusion
I don't know
and neither do you
except for all our loneliness
in our own unique skins
we are seeing all we've loved vanish
into the blinding Void
where Love guides all the torturous roads to itself...

right now
this instant
the moon has turned full in Aquarius
tribulations continue to rage
the planets lock into their aspects
for their appointed time and business
while the stars wheel in the sky
and the earths burns or is inundated
depending where you happen to live
right now
the instant of the turning has passed
but still does it reverberate
as the earth endures fire or water
and the stars circle in the sky above the cracked earth...

oh the heavens we praise and the hells we disdain
that are nothing more than the action and inaction
of one single process
one single motion propelling this entire creation forward
from spent act comes inertia
and from inertia gather forces that shift into action again
and we ground up in the process itself to join the earth
in death or rise into the animating source of the process in life
we choose our stance to proceed
and end in its consequence
the outcome its own result
but the result not in our hands
all that we hold in and to us
is the choice...

"Kill 'em all and let God sort them out" --modern-day insurgent
"Kill them all. God will easily recognize His own."--Abbot Arnauld to
Simon de Montfort, at the massacre at Beziers, 1209
it's true that the idea of God has engendered more bloodshed
than any devil could manage
and what of the ideals of Infinity that the attempted Holy attempt
to realize in this so-called 'fallen' world?
bah! if I had the True Secret Of Life and told it to anybody
I would still be as they used to say
'one more county heard from...'
in this butcher shop of the world
where the butcher Himself weeps over the carcasses
as He welds His cleaver
all you can do here enlightened or not
is do what you think you have to do
do what you think is right
and leave the rest...
the results are not our business...
