The Romans
(it is said) were
mainly vegetarian.
(It will take some time
for the implications
to sink in.)

The falsest people
are those who don't even know
they are false
while the falseness seeps out
and seeps out...
(I have always connected falseness
with clean fingernails.)

Let us praise al-Qaïda
for putting their hatred
and anger out in the open -
where as we
corrupt Westerners
make the crass error
of hiding real feelings
in sound-bites. We spew
out insanities such as
War against Drugs, and
The Sanctity of Human Life, and
War against Terror.

Copernicus, Darwin, Freud
The earth is not the centre of the universe.
Mankind is not the summit of evolution.
The ego is a petty and
deranged dictator.

When you think people are laughing,
often they are weeping.
When you think people are weeping,
the worst of them are laughing.
Weeping is better than words.

Love is also
a kind of greed
But if you love yourself
you will be too loving
to bother others for love
or sex

Malheur
The only afflicted species
afflicts almost every other.
The most afflicted members
kindly kill themselves.

Overcoming consciousness
Against Nietzsche's
injunction to become
what you are
must be set Rumi's
observation that
your life is not your own.

That means and methods
may not be justified
by ends and goals
is hardly controversial.
Much more radical
and more important
is the understanding
that ends might be justified
only by the means employed.

Work Ethic
People who lack it
should get a
Disability Allowance.
But the strivers and achievers
wouldn't like that.
The Work Ethic is not
an ethic at all - but a means to an end:
riches, power, glory,
control of the planet until
it turns to poison and desert
beneath our hide-shod feet
before our unseeing eyes.
