Ah so.....


The tragedy of modern man is not that he knows less and less about the meaning of his own life, but that it bothers him less and less.

Tourism

Tourism

______________________________________________________

Utah is so many stacked saltines; this state is

overcooked. Hopefully this road is already

nameless; I am sure that the wind behind your

car will suck it down into the tire-strewn

canyon with the snakes and sage. Heat

bends the road, browns the stones,

burns the clouds.

The already wide open valley opens up

and we are incomprehensibly small together,

both from the lush Southern hills,

you pause your thoughts of God to ask me

in genuine interest if I am writing poetry

when I see these things and I can’t reply

precisely, but I know that a poem would

crush the scenery in a way that prayer

wouldn’t. Later, you won’t see the dime-sized

lizard hatchlings, these serious jewels, but

I will. Crossing my path, darting under rocks,

frantically alive, all over, and already at home

Let the meltdown begin....

Is this the famous cubbies September meltdown?

The whole damn lot of 'em....

Vernon Howard's
SECRETS OF LIFE (R)

**********************************************************************


"Watch television, watch all those...officials who...stand
up and talk about bringing peace to the world and they talk
about curing inflation and they talk about new energy programs
that we're going to have. And they're well-dressed in suits
and ties, and they don't appear scared behind the microphone.

I wonder if there's one of you, I'm serious, I wonder if there's
one of you in this room who really sees that that man and that
woman are talking in their sleep. They don't know anything.

The last thing they know is how to cure inflation, because that's
a spiritual problem. The last thing they know is how to save
energy - that's a spiritual problem. The last thing they know is
how to make other people happy - that's a spiritual problem.
Therefore, they are lying, they're deceiving you because they've
first deceived themselves. Is there one of you here who sees
deeply into that, who understands it? I'll guarantee you the
first time you see it you will collapse in horror at what is
going on on this earth.

If you don't see it, you're still a part of it."
