purifying the ego: 10

trust in the dust of the mind
knowing in the going of the stone
crib notes for the accession

running from the now and then
stunning from the truth and then
now you will know and go and show

vindication and syndication
lying and dying
truth and lies in the media-scape

busting out of the restraints
bustling and rustling the leaves
the weight descends on my head

alone and all together now
giving and taking me over
bored and excited for the dawn

"I believe that all human beings must dedicate themselves to writing poetry for half an hour every day, without worrying if the writing is good or bad, if it will be commercially successful or not. Poetry as a constant in life purifies the ego."

-Psychomagic: the Transformative Power of Shamanic Psychotherapy by Alejandro Jodorowsky
