Sunday Stream (95) ~ Message to Earthlings

Post by mtmynd » September 17th, 2006, 2:33 am

Message to Earthlings
hello planet earthlings -
you are not alone
but simply avoided.

you've been imprisoned
by your inabilities to
socialize amongst others.

that's why you've been
isolated by us through
thousands of light years

without any possibility
of ever re-establishing
communications again.

you were given one planet
in hopes you’d regain the
one truth over many denials

but you have continued
the path of avarice in
hopes of a larger ego.

you are unable to be free
without suspicion of losing
the false belief in this ego

which is your primary problem
bringing you wars and death
of your own inner workings.

this in turn has caused you
great remorse and guilt
which is of your own doings.

look at your planet...
you are terrorizing Nature
stripping it of the capability

to allow you your very life -
poisoning the waters and air
that you rely upon to survive.

you use the terror of possibility
to assuage yourselves into beliefs
that mind has sovereignty over life.

you don’t recognize your own faults
passing these things upon circumstances
that do not fit within your sensibilities.

although your common sense is askew
you insist upon having things your way
viewing yourself as beings of wisdom

cast in the image of a god you worship
without having any idea of what god is
but religiously follow the dreams of such

who will defend your path
in further destroying the life
that sustains your madness.

you alone have labeled yourself
as homo sapiens... thinking man
but what has this brought your kind?

your memory has now faded
from the time that you were
part of the cosmic community

a time when it could be said
that all lived as one without
the fallacies you now embrace.

but it was you who rebelled
and fought against this oneness
that links all life together

with or without your reasoning
which cannot conclusively
agree upon any one thing

except arming and defending
yourself against intruders
of your own limited mind.

yes, you are now established
forever alone on the fringes
of our universal existence

and so you shall remain
killing and destroying
not only yourself

but the very world that
you’ve been given -
a test to grow beyond

that very mind inhibiting
your full potential to
become the fullness

of life’s given promise:
a life unified with all
that ever was and will be,

conceived of or imagined.
beyond the smallness of the
lives that you insist upon.

as you say, good luck!
your limited future may
very well require this luck.
_________

we are but children in the universe
and as such we have
so much to learn
so much to gain
but will never realize the Truth
until we learn to love
by surrendering our minds
as
free beings
able to
re-create
the infinite presence
which holds existence
together
as
one

DtD... indeed! :wink:

Arcadia... si, you're correcto. El cambio has been made along with a few others. I streamed that late last night under some influence of vino de syrah. :) Gracias, mi amiga de Rosario! Besos a usted y tiene una noche buena!

artguy... I heard you! :lol: (seeing that big boom i was immediately transported to John Lee Hooker's blues classic "Boom Boom Boom..")

the infinite presence
don't it make you want to rock and roll all night long?

at the risk of getting too relevant :wink:

"Sing it Joy to the
world...all the boys and girls now , joy to the fishies in the deep blue
sea and joy to you and me. "

yeah... the infinite presence. that came to me thru the clouds of passing refreshness, silencing the heat and intensity of light., if only briefly. How does it look dressed in violet... the infinite presence?

Nice balanced stream
I was thinking Jeremiad in the first part.
and in the italics I heard a bull frog croaking.
Jeremiah was a bull frog.

The color of light on brass
a golden glow
but it changes day to day
according to the time.

Wasn't that song done by Three Dog Night? Seems to ring a bell with me... and I'm too lazy to google it to find out.

Thanks for the kind words on this stream. Good thing about Streams for me is that they never adhere to any one format... just like my real life.

Jeremiah got nothing on you compadre
He was wrong to think he could now forget that the big, hard, oily, dirty, rainbow-hung Earth on which he lived was a microscopic dot on a microscopic dot lost in the unimaginable infinity of the Universe.
