Death - letting go. Participating in an end, sometimes The End.
What does it mean to die your thousandth death?
Perhaps even one thousand in a single lifetime. I feel as though I have just left my own four digit death scene, leaving behind a someone whom I no longer could be - becoming as I am, continuing to Be by letting go of what no longer Could Be.
Exorcism - the act of driving out a dark spirit that has possessed a person or a place, by commanding it to leave in the name of a more powerful power, in our case the life of the Earth - this is one of the oldest of our human rituals. However, exorcisms are also embedded in the arts of our culture like little noticed but powerful micro-climates.
for every evil plaguing this marvel, so good must survive. As the final wars are fought with the sores of bad diplomacy, integrity has fallen beneath the mountains of paper. Swearing oaths to popes and politicians that have been swooped up into to gullet of occult owls. regurgitating the bullets of false prophecy, we see the end is near yet never truly here.
On two legs stand every thing you thought about the universe
but collapsing timeframes bring swiftly toward an unavoidable end;
whirling out of control into a dreamland of imagination.
Two clocks in darkness one ticking backwards
in my dreams my face is melting and I’m screaming, “Change my life!”
No door in my house that isn’t locked,
no feeling in my body that isn’t fear.
"Banish the word 'struggle' from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.
We are the ones we have been waiting for." — Hopi elders
