As A Lily … No Matter

Jun23

Are the powers
Of evil
Innocent?
Evil represents
Itself.
Only.
There is no deceit
In being.
Evil pretends
Honestly.
Saying that all
Is.
Only,
To its own
Selfish ends.
Misery of all.
So simple,
The anguish.
Compassionate pain,
All the same,
With love
Of union.
Despair,
Through eternity,
All hypocrisy gone,
Duality,
An illusion.
Indifference,
Empathy,
No matter.
Reasoning,
Gone.
No reasons,
No excuses,
Just because,
Random
Where exists
Circumstances allowing.
Evil shines
As a lily,
Flowering glorious,
Pure,
With no purpose.

TRANSFORM ILLUSION
WITH TRUTH
TRUTH IS HEART
HEART IS ALL
LONG FOR NOTHING
NOTHING IS ALL
NOTHING IS BETWEEN
NOW AND TOMORROW
BETWEEN IS ILLUSION
ONLY LOVE IS TRUTH
ONLY TRUTH IS REALITY
LIVE REAL
FOREVER HAS ALREADY BEEN
YESTERDAY
IS ALWAYS
BEFORE YOU
THERE IS ALWAYS MORE
UNKNOWN
FOREVER REAL
BEYOND PERCEPTION
IMMEASURABLE LOVE

EVERYTHING
I DO,
ALL
OF MY WORK,
MY WHISPERED
SONG,
DANCING PRAYERS,
SECRET LONGINGS,

Whose Fault Is It?

Nov6

If we are

Each,

Individually

Responsible,

For our own

Happiness;

Why is that

Certain,

Thereby

Irresponsible,

SOBs

Can make

So many,

Or just

One,

Intensely

Unhappy?

… Often

Without

Even

Noticing.

And other

Beings

Create

Happiness

And delight

As a gift,

Dazzling

In mystery?

IMPORTANT INTER-GENERATIONAL QUESTION

Oct3

,
.
How much precious valuable gray with hints of the original color pale green, plastic Tupperware pieces does it take to constitute an heirloom?

Does it add more or less jealousy potential if the lids don’t fit?

Does it add authenticity value for the plastic to have decades of greasy patina? Is this value similar to the patina with which Pablo Picasso treated his copper works?

Does a documented date of purchase add to the attractive qualities of Tupperware if it is over forty five years previous?

Quest

May14

.
I have learned
So very much,
That all my
Knowledge
And experience
Has become
Unanswered
Questions.
All conclusions,
I remember,
Are questions.
Each question
Changing the last,
And generating
The next.
Each journey
Is a quest,
Searching for
Better questions.
All the wisdom
That I have gained
Is acceptance
Of more questions…

Good and Evil — Kahlil Gibran

May6

.
GOOD AND EVIL — THE PROPHET — KAHLIL GIBRAN
.
And one of the elders of the city said, “Speak to us of Good and Evil.”
.
And he answered:

Of the good in you I can speak, but not of the evil.
For what is evil but good tortured by its own hunger and thirst?
Verily when good is hungry it seeks food even in dark caves, and when it thirsts, it drinks even of dead waters.
You are good when you are one with yourself.
Yet when you are not one with yourself you are not evil.
For a divided house is not a den of thieves; it is only a divided house.
And a ship without rudder may wander aimlessly among perilous isles yet sink not to the bottom.
You are good when you strive to give of yourself.
Yet you are not evil when you seek gain for yourself.
For when you strive for gain you are but a root that clings to the earth and sucks at her breast.
Surely the fruit cannot say to the root, “Be like me, ripe and full and ever giving of your abundance.”
For to the fruit giving is a need, as receiving is a need to the root.
You are good when you are fully awake in your speech, Yet you are not evil when you sleep while your tongue staggers without purpose.
And even stumbling speech may strengthen a weak tongue.
You are good when you walk to your goal firmly and with bold steps.
Yet you are not evil when you go thither limping.
Even those who limp go not backward.
But you who are strong and swift, see that you do not limp before the lame, deeming it kindness.
You are good in countless ways, and you are not evil when you are not good, You are only loitering and sluggard. Pity that the stags cannot teach swiftness to the turtles.
In your longing for your giant self lies your goodness: and that longing is in all of you.
But in some of you that longing is a torrent rushing with might to the sea, carrying the secrets of the hillsides and the songs of the forest.
And in others it is a flat stream that loses itself in angles and bends and lingers before it reaches the shore. But let not him who longs much say to him who longs little, “Wherefore are you slow and halting?”
For the truly good ask not the naked, “Where is your garment?” nor the houseless, “What has befallen your house?”

Innocent?

——————————————————————————————————

IN THE REALM OF PERSONAL OR SOCIAL RELATIONSHIPS — THIS IS NOT A LEGAL QUESTION
.
Are those who act or speak, and are unaware of, and/or indifferent to, the hurt or damage they inflict, INNOCENT IN INTENT?

When the intent is the betterment of self, is there INNOCENCE IN INTENT, when awareness of hurt or damage to another is absent?

Are consequences, or intent, more important?

Are adults morally obligated to rectify, or make amends, for unintended hurt or damage?

Do cultural mores matter?

Entwined

Jan3

.
All things entwined
With all that is not
All the befores
And all the afters
Who once was here
Is always here
And also is not
The hot winds
And the cold
The nano tangles
Into mega chains
This universe a spec
The entire unknowable
Within the known
And still there is
More all rippling
And spiraling
Both inward and out
Every thought
And every action
Every observation
Once begun will
Never stop
Self propelling harmonies
Resonate song entwined
Beyond awareness
Always known
The filaments of potential
Tied forever together
As are we
Our fates dependent
Upon one another
