#OHJ HIPPIE MINDSET

"PAWPRINTS"

#OHJ (occupy hippie jargon):
to do this think communis1
aurea mediocritas2 and Horace;
think of the medium at work
in the mode and the mode, poetic.

Psyche-making occupies itself
and this is the way at work
in cosmos; the middle way at work
is a sacred economy that works
for everybody.
