On the Macrocosm of Microcosm

#An Exegesis on the Humiliation of the Word The world is ruled by darkness. What appears as harmless is theater, what pretends neutral is already bent. The macrocosm corrodes; and in the microcosm, its reflection gleams.. even in places meant to be sanctuaries of truth. A poetry site, born as refuge for broken voices, becomes another stage of control. Here too the phrase resounds: neutralize the threat. But neutralization is not annihilation. It is paralysis. It is psy-ops. It is the removal of anxiety.. not a side-effect, but the aim itself. Darkness builds its stage for this alone: that the "angel of light" may drown his own reckoning beneath a world of deception-built self comfort, so he need never feel the truth he already knows. Comfort is his curtain, numbness his crown.. *the removal of his own anxiety; his game.* This is why the world is his theater-- *Darkness does not destroy at first.. it sedates, comforts, smothers.* Hence.. The whole world is his fully gaslit stronghold, ..for now. Fade back into the moment-- The young poet arrives, bringing her unspoken pain, her hope for words to heal. Instead, her very wounds are seized as footholds. Hearts. Reposts. Endless affirmation. Not to strengthen her voice, but to redirect it. She is seduced into belonging, and her trauma becomes currency. Unresolved, her ache entwined with lust-- a sacrifice prepared for false altars. The angel of light has done his work: offering inclusion without transformation, belonging without responsibility, “light” without source. The poet is neutralized. Her searching silenced, her voice absorbed into fog. Those who carry this fog cling to cowardice. Unable to face the judgment within, they align themselves to the herd; envy-filled, they only know to mock. Yet they replicate themselves, so their refusal of Light is never revealed-- *Perfectly exemplifying their "Great Example" the most envy-based mocker of all.* The microcosm mirrors the macrocosm. What nations suffer, individuals now endure-- Comfort without clarity. Belonging without truth. Safety without healing. Yet the living Word endures. Every attempt to humiliate it only makes its fire burn clearer. Carriers of darkness can swarm, seduce, and smother.. but they cannot create. The true word cannot be erased. Unfiltered, unedited, spoken from a reconciled temple, it pierces fog. It reveals. It heals. And so we speak.. not for ourselves alone, but for those who come searching, hoping that poetry might still be a place where pain can meet truth, where silence breaks, where Light is not withheld but revealed. #

Notes: Said she:

"I look into the mirror
See myself, I'm over me
I need space for my desires
I have to dive into my fantasies
I know as soon as I'll arrive
Everything is possible
'Cause no one has to hide
Beyond the invisible"

The Word:

Close your eyes
Just feel and realize
It is real and not a dream
I'm in you and you're in me

It is time
To break the chains of life
If you follow you will see
What's beyond reality

Ne irascaris Domine
Ne ultra memineris iniquitatis:
Ecce civitas Sancti facta est deserta:
Sion deserta facta est:
Jerusalem desolata est:
Domus sanctificationis tuæ et gloriæ tuæ...

"Ne irascaris Domine
"Do not be angry Lord,
Ne ultra memineris iniquitatis:
Or remember iniquity forever:
Ecce civitas Sancti facta est deserta:
Behold the Holy City is a desert:
Sion deserta facta est:
Sion is mad a desert:
Ierusalem desolata est:
Jerusalem is desolate:
Domus sanctificationis tuæ et gloriæ tuæ...
The house of your holiness and glory..."

Close your eyes
Just feel and realize
It is real and not a dream
I'm in you and you're in me

It is time
To break the chains of life
If you follow you will see
What's beyond reality

Some of those I stand against are still
very special to me.. Some..
But my heart is for the many new poets
being so horribly misled

concerning where their true healing comes from--
..and how.

... ... ... ... ...

The incoherent
self-aggrandizing babble
of the counterfeit sages
goes on--

An echo-chamber of neverending affirmation emanates
from a cowardice-built cloister;
envy-based mockery unable to remove
the emptiness of self-elevation
of those claiming to be example ..

Their stage is the earth,
their applause, the ticking clock.
But when the curtain falls,
even time will betray them.

.. yet the Word remains.
