The Meaning of Life

[mnaz]

There is no meaning
until you give it meaning.
Or so I read in a book
one time.

42?
amor fati is all I got going between me and the rock.
too much acid I guess?
If I was a better man I would believe in Tikkun olam — (תִּקּוּן עוֹלָם) which must be true because
Hank Williams said it in a song.
please pardon my wandering over your poem, thank you for writting it.

Live and Let Live

[mnaz]

I read this in one of Joe Campbell's books,
and I considered him an intellectual giant
beyond any possible sort of reproach.
For awhile at least.

I've always been uncomfortable with '42' btw. But for me it had more to do with what I was taught in church at a young age. They had a whole mythology of numerology, and 42 was bad, but just add 2 and 44 was solid. Subtract 2 and forty was some sort of transformative thing, both good and bad. Yeah, but '42,' that was in between, iffy. I mean, 6 times 7. Six plus seven equals 13, right? And you know how people feel about 13 ...
