It took a lifetime
But Bear carried
Her burden basket,
As asked,
To the top of the
Slick glass mountain
Only to be told by the
Smirking Mountain Top
Bump Onna Log Deities,
“You’ve got the wrong
Stuff in there.”
.
“Us Mountain Top
Bump Onna Log Deities told
You to collect
The second scavenger list
Of goodies to bring to us first.”
.
“Take all this
Valuable heavy
Stuff back down,
Dig a deep hole,
And throw everything
In the hole and bury it.”
.
“Then bring back this
Other buncha equally heavy
Doodads of no value,
That is really the first list.
Hahaha, hohoho, hehehe”
.
“Then go back down
Dig up this second list
Of valuable heavy stuff
And bring that stuff
Up here again,
So that we can reject it
In the right order.
Hahaha, hohoho, hehehe.”
.
Did the weary Bear drop
Her burden basket?
.
Oh no.
Bear threw it down!!
Jumped all over the
Burden basket
And its valuable and
Heavy contents.
.
Then Bear threw
As heavy and sharp
As spear heads,
Some honest
Down home truths,
And a few heart-felt
Curses, as well.
.
The Mountain Top
Bump Onna Log Deities
Laughed so hard they
Forgot to dodge
The harsh truth
And their hot air souls
Were punctured so that
They blurbbblububububed
Off the other
Side of the mountain
Like giant farting balloons.
.
The Mountain Top
Bump Onna Log Deities
Were never missed.
.
Except the local mayor
Did notice their absence
On voting day.
.
Sadly, however,
Bear’s burden basket
Was smashed to nothing.
It had been a fine
And useful basket.
.
The End

Maddie chose DEATH AND REBIRTH as the Music Theme for this week. _____________________________________ Johnny has chosen for the next music theme: “All Guitar”, music centered around guitars.
________________________________________ SHE’S ALIVE … BEAUTIFUL … FINITE … HURTING … WORTH DYING FOR — music by Armand Amar — film footage from Yann Arthus-Bertrand’s HOME http://www.homethemovie.org/ , also Greenpeace and http://timescapes.org/ compiled by Bittu Sahgal at http://www.sanctuaryasia.com/
4min. 58sec. Bittu Sahgal
________________________________________
Can light be born from darkness? Is it possible that we not will not be reborn in our present form? Will life always be born again? Can spirit live without the familiar home? Will death and rebirth always follow, one after the other? Are there beings who consider what the universe would be like without themselves in it? Would Earth be peaceful without human beings? Would the cycles of birth, death, rebirth continue, both violent and peaceful, without humans? Are predators innocent in their hunger? Are there other being who feel guilt for living? Is there rebirth in being food? Are bodies and spirits returned to their component parts, reverberating with creation, to be reformed in infinite oscillating cycles? LIGHT — Thin Red Line — Hans Zimmer — additional music by Klaus Badelt & John Powell, conducted and compiled by Gavin Greenaway and orchestrated by Bruce Fowler & Yvonne S. Moriarty.

Can death be a comfort? Can death, itself, be an escape from intolerable circumstances? Can the thought of total annihilation be soothing? Is it more desirable to think of nothing, no after life, no rebirth, no enlightenment, no responsiblity, no existence, to be the void, without awareness forever? Is death complete and absolute, with nothing more? Do sentient beings have a choice? LONG BLACK DRESS — O Death – http://www.hauskonzerte.com

What does it mean to be reborn? Do death and rebirth have the same meaning for everyone? Is there an endless cycle of death and life? Or does to be reborn mean to be spiritually cleansed? Is rebirth the same experience for everyone? Does rebirth happen in the same context for everyone? Is spiritual purification possible for everyone? Does spiritual growth take place in one lifetime or many? Have there been beings who have achieved perfect enlightenment, already? Have these Beings been reborn, over and over, by choice? Will they continue to be reborn yet again? Is it not possible for people to travel different life paths with different beliefs, and arrive at the same destination, merely having different descriptive words and rituals? Can anyone decide for another what is the best path to follow?

Since Buffy Sainte Marie was mostly at home or in Europe during the 1980s, this song seems appropriate.
I’M GOING HOME — Buffy Sainte Marie
Heaven isn’t so far away as people say
I got a home high in my heart
Heaven is right where I come from; I never throw it away
I know the place and I’m going home
I’m going home
I’m going home
See up there, it’s not the same
They know your name
And I’m not ashamed to need it I’m going home
I’m going home
I’m going home
You keep on knocking but
I’m not coming out of this state I’m in
I’m travellin’ right, I’m gonna get there soon
I’m standing up praying, I’m singing
Saying Heyo ha ha heyo ha hey ya
I know the way and I’m going home.
I’m going home
I’m going home
That’s where the heart can rest
The best is there
And only a fool would leave it. I’m going home
I’m going home
I’m going home
I’m going home
I been around, I been to town
Hey, where you think I learned right from wrong
And I’m going home
I’m going home
