People hurt and kill each other Just because they want to know How that's like. What is a poet's muse But that which is one's own experience In the world and wanderings? What is there a man To wonder Or see? When there is darkness The lost say there is light. And when the light is turned on Like a bright beaming ray, These flee into the shadows Because it burns them. Such are these days. Such has the mind Gravitated, And descended, Into madness. |

Parting is all we know of Heaven And all we need of Hell. (From memory, her strange punctuation and capitalization might not be exactly as I've reproduced it here.) And: After great pain, a formal feeling comes -- The Nerves sit ceremonious, like Tombs -- The stiff Heart questions was it He, that bore, And Yesterday, or Centuries before? The Feet, mechanical, go round -- Of Ground, or Air, or Ought -- A Wooden way Regardless grown, A Quartz contentment, like a stone -- This is the Hour of Lead -- Remembered, if outlived, As Freezing persons, recollect the Snow -- First -- Chill -- then Stupor -- then the letting go -- |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 15397154 United States 05/04/2012 08:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | No coward soul is mine, No trembler in the world's storm-troubled sphere: I see Heaven's glories shine, And faith shines equal, arming me from fear. O God within my breast, Almighty, ever-present Deity! Life--that in me has rest, As I--undying Life--have power in thee! Vain are the thousand creeds That move men's hearts: unutterably vain; Worthless as withered weeds, Or idlest froth amid the boundless main, To waken doubt in one Holding so fast by thine infinity; So surely anchored on The stedfast rock of immortality. With wide-embracing love Thy spirit animates eternal years, Pervades and broods above, Changes, sustains, dissolves, creates, and rears. Though earth and man were gone, And suns and universes ceased to be, And Thou were left alone, Every existence would exist in Thee. There is not room for Death, Nor atom that his might could render void: Thou--THOU art Being and Breath, And what THOU art may never be destroyed. |

It is much too unusual for Business as usual. There is a seed growing. Some might think it is a germ. That comes from fear. It is a seed. With a network of roots underneath the surface and penetrating everything. It is the truth. And it is much to Extraordinary for Business as usual. As a wise man once said, "Hold but let go" Because every myth known to man is playing itself out. Alongside anything any human ever imagined. All the good and all the bad. Is happening. Coalescing into one big thing. Until final realization. The culmination of everything that ever happened and was ever imagined. See you there. |

And the LORD spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it. I am an evil giraffe, and I shall eat more leaves from this tree than perhaps I should, so that other giraffes may die. |
