Who do I Believe In? Books! (an update on my life)
I'm a book worm. I evolved from one anyway. I eat their souls now rather than their paper medium. Unless I am committing a sacred vow to my flesh: then I will pulp and swallow a glyph of magic on a piece of paper. Like bubble gum, parts of them stay in our digestive track for twenty years. I told a friend the intestines are the world servant. Alexander conquered the world and died because he cut his thread, the guardian knot, instead of untying it. Secret this: every single string, even cut, has an invisible gossamer between the two. String is eternal. Atropos didn't know this fatal fact. The part of you your mother owns forever she will take back, in reverse of all the things you did in this life before a death, and she will take a tax for every layer of life, every cut string, so long as you are still bothering to die. You need not of course. My translation of the Gospel of Thomas has Jesus say rightly, "whomsoever discovers the secret meaning of these sayings shall never taste death." I got to the bottom of Jesus.
Some people say I pick on him but that's just to wake you sleepers up. I learned all from him. He bowed to me, I stepped on his back, and climbed up the next rung. Who was Emerson. Then Nietzsche. Then Kenneth Burke. I am returning now to celebrate the eternal life of my friend, Piers Anthony, whose Xanth series, in the person and seed of "Heaven Cent" arrived in the hands of this little monster – for I blamed myself for my parents divorce, I am a monster, and became obsessed with all the monsters of the world … well Dolph the main character can change into any monster he wants. That is his magical talent. And he attracts a lot of sexy adult women. He was a child of nine. Same as me when I found that book, or Anthony Found me out. Thirty some years prior. Wow!
Jillian bought me a Monster Manual for Christmas. I am studying it tonight while listening to music. All these monsters exist in some dimension or plane of reality, for facts and fictions are both etymologically "fashioned things" and as everything that exists also exists within me, I am the dungeon of a bestiary of beasts, every mythological creature to ever exist. I remember my childhood now! I LOVED this stuff.
Wrote a letter to Piers now that I am for a moment smiling and up. Before I fall back into sleep and depression. Writing what I can. Tongue is on fire with the burning dove and robin red breasts phoenix of my every song. That snail in the shell, its skull, the snail my tongue, with his antennas that hear so many vibrations, the inspiration called telepathy, for ever world ever described in a novel or religion actually exists … but I am more tired then I sound.
Natalie my first born and most successful child, aspiring goddess, special needs for special being, is being honored with a reward of student of the month. Tomorrow at one, I will join her. Am I the only who sees the goddess she soon will reveal herself to be? What is called a curse or worse by those in hell is the trembling of an angel before she falls up into the sky as a deity of the greatest heights. I see through her disguise. I am honored she chose me and Sherry of all people to be her parents. I hope one day to be worthy of you. Remember me! Bring me too!
I am reading Piers Anthony's latest Xanth novel, Three Novel Nymphs. Reading the monster manual from Lama Jamyang Jigmy (silly Jilly). I will send out a valentines song on the fourteenth. A song for my wives Jillian and Sherry, the same person in different lifetimes.
Going to see they might be giants in April with good friend Anna. Lots to look forward to. I love the moments I am up. When I am down?
But what is darkness but light we are blind to? Every black hold is actually a white whole when seen from above rather than below. With higher eyes, every happy moment of our lives was with an angel or god joining us. Enthusiasm! AMA, I am ecstatic with my existence today! My spring and summer came a little early this year. Did some spring cleaning today.
I keep my todo filled. The busy bee forgets her sorrows! And lives in a room layered in golden sweetness. True Gold. Edible Gold. The heart of the lion is a comb of honey, for within the strong honey-blonde lion such sweetness … so sweet. I Daniel in the lions den, this area, with all those sunny golden honey lions sleeping next to me, often in the forms of the two cats, Mouth and Munch AMA gave our house … but I am laughing! I feel childish and alive today. I am naked as a tot with the One I Love in another plane of being. This lower body feels their bliss. Every layer of existence bleeds into the next. From hell, the government is a failure, world news is a terror, this obscene MAYA of mere seem. When you put on my AMA goggles, you will see that every terror, every obscenity, ever injustice, is a loving beautiful act of god … Her name is Comos, beauty, and Whitman, who is what Odin became when he emanated himself in the states, well, he told us Americans we must all be a KOSMOS. He ought to know. Odin's twin is Ymir, Tuiso, twin, he sacrificed his mortal side and made a universe of it. God and Giants. So we all are. The body is a giant. Mattria. The heart is a God. AMA. Ymir comes back to be Loki, just Odin again, his shadow being.
I could explain these myths all day. The Christian and Hebrew too, the Indian, the Norse. And I myself write myths I don't share with you. I write about eight more times than I share!
Take care, Caretaker!
