Why?

I feel
like
I'm stuck

13 years
in place

Given
and
taken
away

Sitting
with my
favourite
toy

Sun
beaming
into
my eyes

And I
began
to sing

Green eyes
green eyes

Two Days of Quottawatonez--A Sampling of quotations

Sure, it's a radical philosophy, but that's only because it's not discussing what IS, so much as it's discussing what OUGHT to be--what we ought to be as people. Men and women of vital reason, action and philosophy.

There's no goal other than your very actions, so that the way you think it is, the way you shape it and create it--it's magic.

We've been cut from the Source, we're alienated, but everything goes in cycles and we're heading back towards Something.

I want "zeal" to be in (Prairie Enthusiam and ALfA philosophy) as well, because that's important. We're people with zeal, we're zealous, and it's because our cause is just. We might control the world one day with this, but it'll be as leaders, not as rulers. And since work is holy, we work with zeal, seeking health through all of this. Ultimately, that's what it's about--seeking health, since Art Reinforcement is a system of wellness and well-being.

I love you Ganesh
And I bow to you in Homage
I will not ask you for gifts
I only humbly request guidance
And hope that you approve of my behaviour.

This is the new room in the basement where all the music is. It's hot na sweaty but it feels real nice.  

For all those Abroad here's some edge of prarie storm action to make you feel flat and open like the Silver Surfer's mystic board

Thai Shrine

PICT0059, originally uploaded by The Stranger.

This was the biggest shrine on the island. It was built around a massive four metre wide tree. These shrines are everywhere. Every block that you go theres this little miniature brightly colored castle on stilts with a bhuda dude inside. But sometimes the bhuda is bhuda, sometimes ganesh the elephant man and somtimes its Krisjna. I asked Chai, the Thai Boxing master what they were all about and he said they were for the little gods and made a gesture to indicate that the gods were about the hieght of his knee. He said that it gave the neighborhood goodluck. I reckoned that he was talking about appeasing the multi-dimensional spirits that inhabit every natural place but are primarily ignored by our culture (but certainly not ignored by the native peoples of our country).

Hey guys! What do you think of my new tatoos, first degree sunburn, and gnarly little camera! The new tatto is the thick line and green flames on my left arm. It took four hours of the dude jabbing me with a barbed peice of bamboo while I drank thai beer and watched thai boxing.

One kiss

The station
at Smith Falls

was red
and bricked

Flowing
with drops

To do as
much

What makes you weep?

Lips searching for tongues

travel down
the guilty
floor

in a wading
pool

press
the eyes
of a gift
given

Emergency Exits

I.

Look for them

II.

One and four
just
like any other

To and fro
Nothing
comes tomorrow
