Semele is not a good role
model. |
| 89081403 |
They’re horny too,
the "gods". Frightened, desperate, jaded. |
| 89081404 |
Are we, to some, objects
of arousal? |
| 89081801 |
There are roads. Others
have been this way. |
| 89081802 |
Congruent realities. |
| 89081803 |
And of course I am
metaphysically puritanical. |
| 89081904 |
Irony is metaphysical
erotic play. |
| 89082001 |
Intimacy varies inversely
with distance (in case you were wondering about God’s seeming absence). |
| 89082002 |
Nature = unedited TV. |
| 89082301 |
Mass art = clabbered cum. |

Those who really know
really are talking, not because of some Big Secret, or some Big Conspiracy. Just because
really knowing is really knowing. They are talking. The problem is, we're not listening. |

It starts in the mind. |
| 89082401 |
It continues with

Or peeking out the
window. |

No matter what the
mechanism is (or what you think it is) that is dragging you down, you can still, almost
always, turn your attention away, toward natural symbols, where true, timeless power lies. |
| 89082602 |
What do you gain from
your daily rounds that is so valuable but that you could not spare an hour doing better,
doing within? |
| 89082701 |
Pain is the teacher of
last resort. |
| 89083001 |
The illusion of
discontinuity—between us and them and it. Not: "only connect", but:
"only become aware of the connection." |
| 89083002 |
Wisdom: to be only
bemused by outrageous fortune, and identity. |
| 89083101 |
Every investment in the
invisible pays off big, often, usually, in ways you, in your surface-sightedness,
don’t notice. |
| 89090601 |
Receptivity. One
makes—and declares—oneself ready. (Rapes do happen [Semele], but not often.) |
| 89091101 |
Theosex. We want it, but
are afraid. The flight is not from the body but from the mind. From knowledge. |
| 89092601 |
Someone touched the
middle of my forehead with two fingers as I fell asleep. Was it you? |
