I will fill this space
til there’s nowhere left to fall.
The case being that the fear
of being naked lies at the heart
of your religion—you are frightened
of the power to destroy,
so thus, you hesitate to create.
Letting everything go
to something else somewhere else—
what is left but death
and what is death
but comfortable solitude—
you can shrink away
from everything you desire
until everything goes away
and you are left with nothing.
I refuse to partake of your wafers—
I will eat meat.
Spawned from this idea: think lions attacking buffalo.
Cluster of frightened closed ones, grouped together in fear,
soft ones live in concrete buildings, high off the ground, shelter themselves in blindness,
watching TV, listening to others tell them what to think, travel in cars, sealed off,
shrinking away from their own power, they let their environment dominate them,
thus are there the open ones, living in the earth, listen to the people screaming in their silence,
solitary in a world full of noise and movement, they destroy the soft ones, they feed upon their fear, picking off their children and eating their meat.
Idea of their God: their God is distant, not them, not of their world, far away.
Demons, take away the weak and make stronger the race.
Alright, take it to individual:
animal self, inner, an open awareness of death, the edge, boundaries are defined by each moment in the struggle for life, thus, always on the attack
social self, outer, ignores presence of death, sheltered, boundaries concrete, however, fear of the unknown puts one always on the defense
conflict between the two within the sphere of the moment—outer vs inner, boundary vs infinity, offense vs defense
mind attempts to escape moment by focusing upon that which is eternal. thus: moment vs. eternity
soul attempts to resolve conflict: thus preserver vs destroyer
God: that which is beyond, and simply is.
animal—the earth, the body, weed, the sun, the moon, rhythm, inward, preserver \--In themoment
social—buildings, masks, acting, outward, words, destroyer /
mind—transcends time through interconnecting thought,
fills, hoards experience \--Out
soul?—energy, outward expanding, empties /
Demonstrate through individual, atman, going through a moment of time.
Setting: city-jungle, walking down sidewalk
The entangling body
forks upward,
erupting in verdant tongues
of light.
Alone in its allotment of earth,
the roots ravage the bordering concrete
It will be cut back
before it will be allowed to do more
damage.
