I’ll be disappearing into the black forest villages of southwest Germany for two weeks. To mark the time, here are two choice quotes, familiar I’m sure to those in the inner circle, from cultural visionary and philosophy-of-life guru, Timothy Leary.
“Myth is a report from the cellular memory bank. Myths humanize the recurrent themes of evolution.” —
“Consciousness is energy received and decoded by a structure. There are as many levels of consciousness in the human body as there are anatomical structures to receive and decode energy.”
And a very small poem of my own…
Adam and eve on delacroix island
Biting fleas, picking pecans, their voices
touched and words hung like crystals
glistening through the horizon line
dreaming the smell of wet earth
Expecting, but only finding the scent of lingering apple peels

Enjoy the Schwartzwald, Gary! Linda and I were there at Christmas. Love the blog!
“Won’ring aloud, will a son day be born
To share in our infancy
In the child’s path we’ve worn?
In the aging seclusion of this earth
That our birth did surprise
We’ll open his eyes.”
~ Ian Anderson

Correction (fat fingers and red wine):
“Wond’ring aloud, will a son one day be born
To share in our infancy
In the child’s path we’ve worn?
In the aging seclusion
Of this earth
That our birth
Did surprise.
We’ll open his eyes.”
