Just goes to prove surgical removal of the genitals is not possible under battlefield conditions. Of thumb the course applies of rule. The Sarge said, "When it comes to sugar I'll take two but beware of sisters, soon as late they'll gang up on you".

Da Da is dead

I always liked that avatar of yours with the pussycat costume.

Do you think Christianity is a Jewish plot to enslave the world? I think I may have become an Aztec in my second childhood.



Thinking about another old man, a suicide, because sometimes a cigar is cancer of the jaw. Refusing all pain medication so he could keep his mind clear to finish his last book about Moses and Monotheism.

Thanks for reading

There is a church in Baghdad called the Church of Mary Mother of Sorrows.

It is the exception that interests the devil.
It is the exception that climbs his sorrowful hill
Or sits in the desert and hurts his mother's heart.

I suppose it is an anachronism but I wish my mother had read Plath's poem about her son.

I think I would have been a happier more productive member of society.

I might have been been a doctor,
maybe even a proctologist
Instead of the eternal sophomore @$$ that I am.



Speaking of Freud:
I think I have developed a bad case of penis envy in my old age.


always makes me
to see you here.
thanks for reading amiga

If you meet Bob Dylan on the road kill him

In the fury of the moment I can see the Master's hand

He got card's he aint showing

Every Grain Of Sand
In the time of my confession, in the hour of my deepest need
When the pool of tears beneath my feet flood every newborn seed
There's a dyin' voice within me reaching out somewhere,
Toiling in the danger and in the morals of despair.

Don't have the inclination to look back on any mistake,
Like Cain, I now behold this chain of events that I must break.
In the fury of the moment I can see the Master's hand
In every leaf that trembles, in every grain of sand.

Oh, the flowers of indulgence and the weeds of yesteryear,
Like criminals, they have choked the breath of conscience and good cheer.
The sun beat down upon the steps of time to light the way
To ease the pain of idleness and the memory of decay.

I gaze into the doorway of temptation's angry flame
And every time I pass that way I always hear my name.
Then onward in my journey I come to understand
That every hair is numbered like every grain of sand.

I have gone from rags to riches in the sorrow of the night
In the violence of a summer's dream, in the chill of a wintry light,
In the bitter dance of loneliness fading into space,
In the broken mirror of innocence on each forgotten face.

I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea
Sometimes I turn, there's someone there, other times it's only me.
I am hanging in the balance of the reality of man
Like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand.

grain of sand... I was amazed by a mustard grain yesterday when I tried it in the chinese shop. Never thought they were real-real!

My faith is in Einstein's god. Back in the fifties Einstein was being questioned by some congressman as to whether he was an atheist. This was during the McCarthy era. (a time of paranoia about atheistic communists in the US government) Einstein replied to the congressman's question by saying he believed in the God Of Spinoza.
Note:
I could be wrong about the date, it might have been in the forties.

But whatever date it was:
I am not smart enough to read Spinoza, (or too lazy) I just take it on faith. I been snorting mustard seeds, got a heckuva good buzz going this morning.

They say the mustard seeds in the parable are the Brassica nigra

There is also a parable about death using the mustard seed that the Buddha told.
