purifying the ego: 22

doing new things that
aren't even known
one more thing to add

doing old things that
are very known
two more things to subtract

being keen for that
going against the folded
elemental energies come

i just don't know though
you just don't show though
but this doesn't mean anything

broadcasting into the void
the pyramids are constructed
your guess is not better

incredible goddess of energy
all of existence is grotesque
beauty and suffering

a new way of going about it
an old way to show it
a middle way to betray it

"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."
