POSEIDON'S LITTLEST HORSE



















THE OLD FARRIER BLESSING

                ~for Ric Scow Williams


bent nails fathering Christmas
night words, breach and reach

their sky
remade where each

forms a winter pearl
in-formed by lack
in late November meter

angels nail
a foot of winter
air to herds on high

breach
b
reach
  reach

―brr

lack in love(d) remains
pomegranate seed

unit & measure
inform foot care

or night language
sol-making

& in care, something generous
taken inward, reworks

DESCENT AND SOLAR HEROES


















WE WERE ALWAYS TWIN



I.  Both clown

one with a cob for a horn
one as a hob with a corn cob habit
like my wimpled nun in November’s
driveway shoveling tweets of gold
into piles of mythic language, both
work in nonsense with the nonliteral
body in social media to embody
the immaterial body, what’s a meta
phor?

II. The jesters know each their gesture
    both are true

A.  One points past himself with his horn;
      avoid myth-matching & sense-making

B.  One points out his appetite for type;
      follow not-language to where it leads

C.  Where the hero is 
lost at C!

And lost at sea is how one myth of social media
suggests journeys of solar heroes begin…as if C
as port of entry & point of departure, The Call

THE MISSING BODY AND SOCIAL MEDIA
























MISSING LETTERS
For
 Tino Beth


lost at C; words, too, comedian
play gaps with loss
myth-matching

ODDLY HOSPITABLE NOVEMBER
























NOVEMBER TWEETS




Oddly, hospitable
these junk food transients
rowdy, rained upon chilled words;
driveway friendship, a wimpled nun
shoveling sunshine

NIGHT LANGUAGE, THE ANUNNAKI [THE FEMININE PRINCIPLE] AND THE MYTHOS OF THE DESCENT OF THE SUN GUIDED BY THE HOST OF HEAVEN

























IN THE ANATOMY PERSONIFIED


the middle
one affair, sits atop
a model blemish on the middle class/ic

1. ANUNNAKI AS A PERSONIFIED NOTION BELONGING TO A MYTHOS AND STANDING FOR AN IDEA, A NOTION THAT PLANETARY, TUTELARY CHTHONIC SPIRIT GUIDES GUIDE THE CHARIOT OF THE SUN AS IT MAKES ITS ANNUAL, DAILY AND SEASONAL ROUNDS, I.E. “A SOLAR CIRCUIT”.   THE MYTH OF THE SOLAR HERO IN THE SOUL-MAKING OF THE SUN [OF GOD and GODS] SUGGESTS THE SUN PASSES THROUGH  SEVEN GATES BY WAY SEVEN TUTELARY GUIDES, THE ANUNNAKI. THE ANUNNAKI GUARD THESE GATES LEADING TO AN UNDERWORLD BUT AN UNDERWORLD IMAGINED AS “NIGHT” AND “SPACE”—BOTH. SPACE SUCH AS THAT FROM WHICH DREAMS ARE MADE ARE THE [MIND]STUFF OF MYTH-DREAMS AND BELONG TO “NIGHT LANGUAGE”, IMAGES WITH EARTHLY APPEARANCES BUT REPRESENTATIVE OF THIS OTHER SIDE OF SOMEWHERE, THE NOWHERE OF NONLOCALITY TO WHICH THE WORD, “CHTHONIC” REFERS. FOR MORE ON THIS IMAGE IN SOUL-MAKING AND TO SEE AN AESTHETIC REPRESENTATION OF THE ANUNNAKI VISIT http://www.truthbeknown.com/anunnaki.htm

WEIGHING "SOUL" ; TENDING AN INDIVIDUATED LIFE : MY FAVORITE SOUL TWEET FOR THE MONTH OF OCTOBER 2014




















GRAVE SOUL


It's true a literal turn for those theological representations of soul image or images (what are image representations in nonlocality having no physical properties, taking up no material space) is bound to occur historically and did occur historically literalized and forever more the folly is remembered in the symbol, 21 grams.

Interestingly, there is a new twist, a poetizing one adding weight to the value of soul-tending the body of images that inform one's anatomy of that personifiying notion "soul-making", what Jung called individuation. It begins with an awareness I first caught reading Thomas Moore's "The Essential James Hillman: A Blue Fire", a compilation of key ideas from the writings of James Hillman edited by Moore. The idea appears under the subtitled section, "Polytheism". It states that a fantasy image already governs and guides our view of  soul-making, that thing we call "the individuation process". Hillman was always fond of saying "stick to the image" itself and not anything that can be said about the image that presents itself.  Tend the image itself.  Feel the weight, the gravity inward. Take seriously what image grabs hold of you here in your own deep life as it pulls you toward the discovery of what life is waiting for you here. That life knew you well before you ever had a material face.

My fav tweet on twitter for the month of October, 2014 comes from Thomas Moore.
