Silence multiplies, silence is fire.

Dirges of the Damned

XVI

I wonder sometimes About that Superlative Entity We like to imagine—to nest in

I wonder if Its spirit resides In the space lying between Knowing better & Doing better

For those who are in tune with It There is no hiatus self-imposed To try a new strategy, a new project To improve one's self & situation One flows along the Great Experiment Directly from awareness to action

For those who are not in tune The width of the River is oceanic The doubt & questions endless "How big a setback if I fail?" "Who would I be if I succeed?" "What if I am wrong to?"

So the shore of knowing Feels surer and safer Than the waters chopped By fearful hot air

As it happens, I’ve been sketching this moody bastard for more than half my lifetime and I doubt I will ever stop 🫠

The road to Hell's mention Is paved with good intention So forget intention

Which those bricks we built Our palaces of guilt So forget intention

Intention is used to excuse Genocide and abuse So forget intention

Injury to the rabbit Needs no more than habit So forget intention
