chasing the shadow of eternity ?

[2late]

...

A tiny distance from here,
and a short moment from now

I can hear Eternity and Infinity having a row:

".. T O O . .. B I G G G "
Time bellows ,



" .. T o o . . . S l o w w w "
Space echoes !

...

If the illusion weaved by the mind were to drop

... Would space collapse

.... and time stop ?





the worldwide web whirlwind has just dumped me here

... anyone ... home ?

 

[Alana]

anyone ... home ?

Many of us here home
taking turns to unswer the phone .... :P

Welcome! Read the Wave about time and space:

Thanks a million for answering the phone
"Tickle Me" seems a nice tune, but not so easy to sing alone
To hear someone , by far, is much more exciting
than listen to the fax machine after the nineth ring.

First , here's a big HELLO to Irini and all
"About time!", you may say, but that's what I'm called:
-not enough time for anything, always "too late"-
It's my lot,my excuse, my nature, my fate
"Ah, but you have free will, man !", someone kindly spoke
Well yes, I'd save that for the next joke

Meanwhile, I'd better start reading the Wave
for the third time, behind stage
perhaps by chance someday we might be on the same page.

"all there is is lessons" ?

And yet that's your nature as you yourself say,
To join past morrow, late in the day!
The universe gives only that which is asked,
Reflection of you it provides, sometimes masked.

The freedom of will is not all that broke;
The power of choice is hardly a joke.
Excuses will only cause you to wait
For not etched in stone, not so clear your fate!
Your mechanical nature will yield inner storm
To break free, your conscious "I" must be born.

You bet, they permit to break free from our cage.

Hey, what luck ! here's some fun echo at last
Let's put the music in top gear and see how fast
we can sing along

... In the beginning was the word .. then came wonderful songs ...



Greetings ... ScioAgapeOmnis
(made me think of a homeopathic cure for TongueTwistedolitis)

Like to share with you a cute story about my favourite car
It's fully automatic, made in Heaven, just ... doesn't go very far
The trouble, you see, it's a universal model that runs on free will
(I can start it any time, as long as it points ... downhill)
Properly maintained, it'd never break down
Except on odd occasion, when there's a Disney show in town
Programmed to hate boredom, it thrives on excitement
(Just put a war video on, and its engine would fire on all guns)
Me and my machine are now stuck on a planet called Terra
Where the inhabitants have no appetite for free will, but propaganda
They would swallow anything, as long as you can show it on TV
(Why worry about free will when you're already.. in the land of the free ?)
So we're holed up here waiting for the right wave
That would lift us beyond this hell of a cave ...

-"Fat chance ! Start learning to swim, buddy !"

Some would think I'm not 2late but 2-lazy
Well, it's the free-will talk that drives me crazy

We may all be in a 3D jail ,
but look: we can still fly, run, surf or sail
I have a choice, they say, to go fast or go slow
The congestion is all in my mind , just blow

Which I did, and ended up happy
as a mindless free willie ...

does it make me more real

to think: all else is fake ?

to deceive myself

how many lies would it take ?




my search for truth

seems to have come to a halt

the cause : a self-inflicted wound

caked with salt



in the mirror was a pair of eyes

terrorised and programmed

they, too, can tell lies !

 

[Alana]

-Mirror mirror on the wall
am i the worst of them all?

:P

 

[tschai]

I know this may sound a little queer-but you should just avoid those eyes in the mirror-

Instead look within and there you will find- a discovery of a different kind- the "I's" that you seek

But you'll get only a peek-because the Spirit may be willing, but the flesh is weak!

So work on your "I's" as Gurdjieff would say-and this you MUST DO EVERYDAY!

Look not then, for your eyes in the mirror-

That cause you to faint and tremble with fear-

Look rather at the "I's" you'll find inside-and no longer from the "eyes" in the mirror you'll hide!

 

[2late]

That was nice
thanks, tschai !


OK . No smoke, and no mirror this time.



Look without: there's no head -

let alone eyes

Go within : what a mess -

which bit is this mysterious "I" ?

These circular thoughts that run around non-stop,

can't very well be "IT" ?

A myriad of descriptions,

but none seems fit

All are borrowed ideas,

just what is really "mine" ?

(Cut !
Stick to the script, and remember your line !)



Just as it's so easy to forget

that the sun never really sets

It's difficult to remember

that we are the ones who go around forever

In a circle centered on a lie

A lie called "I",

a deception of the most subtle kind


The "I" that does not see, but blinds ...
