A Lion Resting By A Sacred Tree…


A Lion Resting By A Sacred Tree



FOR 4 LAWS ONCE BROKEN

.

Very few can choose to un-see what they have once seen

.

To un-hear what they have once heard.

.

To un-read what they have once read.

.

To un-feel what they have felt.

.

To forget what they once thought and believed.

.

Such gifts and curses can never be truly returned!

.

.

Once the eagle wills to fly,

They have already flapped their wings.

And a storm is manifest in some far distant future.

.

Once a thought is known,

It can never be destroyed.

.

Once Lion has roared

The prey cannot be unshaken and ever feel quite the same, ever again.

.

Once the sacred ox is sacrificed,

And the loud noise of its pain made real.

That sacrifice has been forever made.

.

Such gifts and curses can never be truly taken back!

Such gifts and curses can never be dispelled with only a mere demand.

Such gifts and curses can never be truly returned!

.

Because their shadows, ripples and stains mark us all forever!

.

.

A Lion resting by a sacred tree

His killed dwarf oxen corpse lays by his side at the foot of the sacred tree

.

This Dwarf Ox was once considered a demon of sorts, by some.

But the lion did not care.

So, now this delicious dwarf ox has been sacrificed to this lions will, and hunger.

.

An Eagle Dares to sit close by on an old carved stone

.

The ancient tree looks on

This old tree has a cobra, an old drum and a candle in is branches

It never mattered why.

.

A skull and a white Datura metel flower rest in its eaves

It never mattered how

.

And a crescent moon shine’s down upon them all.

.

A can of soup is not soup

It was never soup

It will never be soup

Only the cans contents are soup!

.

Mortals obsess over the why and the how and all the different labels

Instead of the real meanings.

Instead of the contents.

.

.

There are more than a billion legends

From over a billion years

Each fragmented into a billion fragments and meanings

And each of these has a billion version of the truth

.

All of them signify one single meaning.

.

The truth is just itself

The truth, the lion, the eagle and the ox own none of us anything.

It does not care any more than a mindless mountain does.

.

One truth

One meaning

.

And for each of us, all…

.

…it is NOT good news!

.

.

FLIPPITY FLOP!

.

WHAT IF THE HUMAN RACE WAS NOT SO SHIT?

.

.

(A counterpoint to my own most common argument!)

.



.

My most common argument usually revolves around how innately crap our entire species is.

.

But here is a counterpoint.

(Although it will not seem like it at first).

.

.

In “Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets”

There is a super lovely peaceful race,

But the humans are shit bags!

.

.

In “Avatar”

There are some lovely big blue aliens.

BUT again, the human is acting like their predictable shit bag selves!

.

.

ET

Yet again,

Nice Aliens.

Deeply crappy self-serving humans.

.

.

There are a load of examples of sci-fi and fantasy writers holding an “Ugly mirror of truth” to our whole species, doing their due diligence by warning us about who we are!

.

.

This does Not sound like much of a counterpoint so far!

Does it?

.

.

.

But here is the counterpoint I promised.

.

.

Those same writers,

.

Those talented writers that showed us our rancid souls,

.

Those mere flawed human minds,

.

Dreamed and created the,

Super lovely peaceful race in “Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets”

.

They created the,

Lovely big blue aliens in “Avatar”

.

They created

ET!

.

They all created these lovely idyllic fictional races to populate their world and make their stories.

.

A mere flawed, shitty like all the rest of us, mere human mind thought of all these!

.

And if we can dream it.

.

Then we can all become it!

.

If we can imagine such a race, society or alien philosophy,

.

Then we must also have the potential, somewhere deep, Deep DEEP down, to become such a wonderful thing!

.

.

And That!

Ladies and gentlemen are my counterpoints to my own most common argument.

.

.

That is why I keep screaming at both myself and the world too,

.

Be, Dream and Become better, than we all are!

.

.

Right Body,

.

Right Mind,

.

Right Thought,

.

Right Deed,

.

.

Changeth the heart of all Humankind,

.

. . . Well, that, and cholesterol!

.

.

SHMOO!
