Yeah ok....3:30am....
I can't believe I'm even up at this hour....but apparently Voice is wanting to come thru, so I figured just as well do it here....see what grows....
Does this feel forced? It kinda is - I'm so afraid to be seen, most of the time, yet clearly this is what Is Wanting To Come Through me....universe gave me a 6' body for cripes sake.
So the mantra that landed in my journal tonight is "fear - feel it and express anyway". So here we go.
Poem snippet from this evening, about the "yellow vmeme" / that part of me:
yellow
the pain of not having been met before
the pain of having gotten stuck in green swamp
fucking process junkies - so we banish process
fucking pain-rehearsers - so we banish emotion
fucking wallowers - so we banish decendance
the best of me pulled the healthy out of the primordial soup
i dig money, even know how to transform energy into it, and back again
i dig decendant depth, i can witness it and distill out the True Voice of Spirit
I dig ceremony and tradition, i get that our tribal pack roots help hold us in family
the worst of me doesn't know there's a worst of me
the 'i know it all'-ness that kills our softness
the 'i am better'-ness that kills our receptivity
the un-metabolized pain that recycles
boomerangs into the shadow of my peripheral vision
"the higher that we climb...." says Stu
shit yeah. i can feel the swayin' in the winds of change
....
what is 2nd tier poetry like? does it transcend the "stream of consciousness" of my college creative writing class? what about 2nd tier fashion; what's beyond the female shaved head and the flowie hippie skirts?
can i ask a few more questions?
am i doing a 4am delerium?
should i post more of my personal rants in blogspace?
curiouser and curiouser,
4am gail

Help




“what's beyond the female shaved head and the flowie hippie skirts?”
Fearlessly and Divinely sexy, unashamedly, unabashedly Hot Gucci Boots, girl!!!
And yes, I love the question, Gail. Living in BOulder, i am forever bombarded with the shaven headed, hippie clothed Green Swamp and Integral's own version of pre/trans fashion fuck-up ;-)
Love seeing you hear on Zaadz!

The Devil wears Prada shoes, so I am told.
Maybe it is not about the clothes, but about the reason why people wear them.
What does yellow include from first tier in order to trancend?
And what does it leave behind in order to become?
Dear Gail, I loved your poem
And please do ask more questions
Possibly it is about asking the questions and not about the answers
Maybe not, let's find out
Love from Alain
me thinks, you should stay up late more often and give us more of your poems.
Love, Frank
