     THE HILD WARES OF MARCH HOP ON
 
 

The miracles of life are:
the hungry eat; the tired rest, and men think -- 
--  and have no interest in the nature of thinking.

                      …(the TRUE miracle is that a few do.) 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

          WHAT?  (YOU MIGHT WELL ASK), 
                        IS GOING ON? 
 
 

       The brain creates an “I” in man’s consciousness,
       then proceeds to treat it like a suspect in a crime.

         …(few men do.)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

            HOW TIME SPENDS ITS TIME
 
 

A man with a routine memory died last month, and 
just doesn’t realize it.

A man with plans will be dying later today…
…and again tomorrow…and the day after that…
 

 
 
 
 
 

          HOW YOU COULD SPEND YOURS
 

If it were somehow firmly determined that
Enlightenment was not possible,
the struggle to BE so would still be worthwhile --
........ perhaps even superior.
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

            IF NOT ACTUALLY FAVORED -- 
                     -- THEN WHAT?
 

Re mind’s relationship to consciousness:
With family & one’s own kind, all creatures, 
(even vermin), are tolerated.

What sort of D.A. treats his own brother as an
unindicted conspirator in some unspecified plot?

Where do these creatures come from 
who feel that within themselves
they are in conflict with themselves?
They seem to see, hear and think,
but did their place of origin somehow render them 
blind, deaf, and uninterested in instances of
the three dimensionally improbable 
being unquestioningly accepted as the norm?

A creature in conflict with itself 
is a creature escaped from mythology.
Ask yourself: “Am I  merely a myth?”
Zeuses say, “No!”   ----    the knowledgeable simply smile.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

              THE ONE GREAT QUESTION
 

                              “What is this?”
No inquiry a man can make of himself surpasses this.
      In comparison, all other questions are quackery.
 

(Consciousness lives in the land with no name;
  mind, in The Confusion Capitol ofThe World.) 
 
 

A man pondered: 
“Is thought -- analog, and reality -- digital, 
 or thought -- digital,  and reality – analogue?”

Ask yourself: 
do you feel that your relationship to life is continuous,  or discreet?

An ordinary man cannot answer this question,
and one-who-knows can’t hear it asked.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

                   SPEAKING OF SPEECH
 

Language: a load of locusts loosed on the land,
(an array of alliterations allowed to attack an area).
Waste of staggering proportion occurs while a man mistakes being entertained for being enlightened.
 
                            Conceptual brain
                             talks a good game,
                             but the wind is heard without words.
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 

                 HOW SURPRISING 
 

Ordinary men know ordinary things;
an extraordinary man knows an extraordinary thing;
the extraordinary thing includes all the ordinary things,
but they do not include it.
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 

          THE UNACCEPTABLE EXPENSE

            At dear cost to you  do you forget that 
            the opposite of every enlightening idea 
                              is itself enlightening.
 
 

One of speech’s purposes is social;
ordinary herds get greased thereby;
certain strays don’t say much --  they just wink & grin.

Remember the great waste in allowing the mind to confuse its being entertained 
with it being pointed to a way out of confinement. 
 
 
                    …(and, “Moo” to you too.)
