You probably saw it
Speed, motion, angles, maneuvering
Miscalculation of speed, mass, and nimbleness
Then total, final stillness

The Birth Of Myth
Gods and demons arising from the frothy mists, clashing Titans who dance to waves curling twists, embrace in changing temporal myths, the dark ocean's gift.

SUMMER SNOWS
What might melt warm these summer snows, what blight darkens the human soul, and how long the eclipse it is difficult to know through these relentless snows. What might these winds to this spirit have known, a tapestry rich and in full detail worn, void of color of presence there unraveling before all spirits care. O' wretched is the spirit that mourns the river's flow, eternity stripped of her frills and bows and these relentless snows. O' what fitful scheme only the gods do know, with colder winds than heat hell knows, and these, these relentless snows.

Nice. Rich word pictures and verbs.

Walking through The Itemized Spin Cycle
Wallenda once existed purely as an axis.
- The top spins around a still, invisible axis.
- The tornado spins around a still, invisible axis.
- The world spins around a still, invisible axis.
- The solar system, the galaxy, the universe all spin around the same.
- The still unmoving, invisible axis, is* the root.
- Motion creates the axis.
- Paradoxically, to create motion energy only unleashes from the stillness of balance, the place where movement and energy exist only as unmanifested potentiality.
- Imbalance causes motion towards balance, in other words, all motion.
- The Ouroboros swallows its tail.
- Befuddled causation either tightens its grip, or effortlessly releases to the vortex swirling around stillness.
- The still, invisible axis, a.k.a., one of the thousand names of The Nameless Thing. (go on, say it)
- Qualities: physical yet not physical, manifesting as energy yet non-energetic, causing motion yet motionless, invisible yet detected by its effects upon phenomena.
* Is best used is best used once per thought.**
**(Is, best used, is best used once, per thought.)

Life And Death
- Sri Aurobindo
Life, death, - death, life; the words have led for ages
Our thought and consciousness and firmly seemed
Two opposites; but now long-hidden pages
Are opened, liberating truths undreamed.
Life only is, or death is life disguised, -
Life a short death until by Life we are surprised.

Speculations on forum members
Are you tall and slim?
Are you short and fat?
Are you young or old?
Do you wear a hat?
I wonder what Your house is like,
if you have a car or ride a bike.
Are you gay or straight or in between?
Are you generous or are you mean?

Birdie birdie in the sky
Why’d you do that on that fly
Shirley it's glad
Elephants can’t fly.

Comment: These lyrics echo TS Eliot’s, The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock
The Sire of Sorrow (Job's Sad Song)
Song lyrics by Joni Mitchell
Let me speak let me spit out my bitterness
Born of grief and nights without sleep and festering flesh
Do you have eyes?
Can you see like mankind sees?
Why have you soured and curdled me?
Oh you tireless watcher! What have I done to you?
That you make everything I dread and everything I fear come true?
Once I was blessed; I was awaited like the rain
Like eyes for the blind, like feet for the lame
Kings heard my words, and they sought out my company
But now the janitors of Shadowland flick their brooms at me
Oh you tireless watcher! What have I done to you?
that you make everything I dread and everything I fear come true?
(Antagonists: Man is the sire of sorrow)
I've lost all taste for life
I'm all complaints
Tell me why do you starve the faithful?
Why do you crucify the saints?
And you let the wicked prosper
You let their children frisk like deer
And my loves are dead or dying, or they don't come near
(Antagonists: We don't despise your chastening
God is correcting you)
Oh and look who comes to counsel my deep distress
Oh, these pompous physicians
What carelessness!
(Antagonists: Oh all this ranting all this wind
Filling our ears with trash)
Breathtaking ignorance adding insult to injury!
they come blaming and shaming
(Antagonists: Evil doer)
And shattering me
(Antagonists: This vain man wishes to seem wise
A man born of asses)
Oh you tireless watcher! What have I done to you?
That you make everything I dread and everything I fear come true?
(Antagonists: We don't despise your chastening)
Already on a bed of sighs and screams
And still you torture me with visions
You give me terrifying dreams!
Better I was carried from the womb straight to the grave
I see the diggers waiting, they're leaning on their spades
(Antagonists: Man is the sire of sorrow
Sure as the sparks ascend)
Where is hope while you're wondering what went wrong?
Why give me light and then this dark without a dawn?
(Antagonists: Evil is sweet in your mouth
Hiding under your tongue)
Show your face!
(Antagonists: What a long fall from grace)
Help me understand!
What is the reason for your heavy hand?
(Antagonists: You're stumbling in shadows
You have no name now)
Was it the sins of my youth?
What have I done to you?
That you make everything I dread and everything I fear come true?
(Antagonists: Oh your guilt must weigh so greatly)
Everything I dread and everything I fear come true
(Antagonists: Man is the sire of sorrow)
Oh you make everything I dread and everything I fear come true

Twork
sell your self
sell your soul
lose your self
be limp
a corporate imp
find a job
pound for a dollar
twat with a collar
label a slob
a paid slave
a share to shave
you when you're done
the pretentious fun
in your spare time
you'll come undone
and along the way
you should reap the hay
hey hey it's Joe!
does he give a fuck
no.
