Eihwaz Augur
larry mintz Dec 2024
I received Eihwaz twice this week  
It is time to grow inside out,  
And it is Eihwaz’s time to speak
Shed dead skin  is what it’s about.

It is time to grow inside out.        
My skin is  like a Yew’s long bark,
Shed dead skin  is what it’s about.
And growing within  hits the mark..

My skin is  like a Yew’s long bark
And chuck the old ways like a snake sheds  hyde ,
And growing within  hits the mark.
Doing this  I feel  bonafide .

And chuck the old ways like a snake sheds  hyde

Pangean to Hyperion
larry mintz Nov 2024
Hyperion  Nerthus's  grandest and tallest tree
Long  may you reign on Nerthus for all to see
You're 600-800 year old redwood
You're growing  slowly that is surely good
And  born mid  14c-16c on earth
Your circumfrence has a really huge girth
And you are 380 ft high
He is King of the trees , I do not  lie  

Hyperion,standing tall above all
Next to  King Hyperion you are small
If you visit Him;adore and praise him
You will feel connected to Him -a win

Always The rock of ages .
They are ancient like the night
The runic teaching of the ages is like a tapestry woven from the teaching of the sages.

Chili Party Lowdown

Those were the days I thought they never end
Making my Dragons’s Breath chili
And beer, soft drink and chili  for my friends
Chili like fire  one says  ;need beer quickly

Making my Dragons’s Breath chili          
Cooking chili is like a balance beam        
My chili tastes like tangy fire  it seems
Chili   like fire ,one says ;need beer quickly.

Cooking chili is like a balance beam  
Each party I reduce the heat
My chili tastes like tangy fire it seems

Each party I reduce the heat
And beer, soft drink and chili  for my friends

Vote Green Party
larry mintz Sep 2024
Jill Stein   the best rep for the Greens  to date.
A vote for the    Green  Partywould be great,
Vote for Biden , daft you are , I opine
Vote for Trump you look much  dumber by design.
You want to make America Green, do you ?
The Green Party, a breath of fresh air too.
Her politics makes America look great,
The  Party Green  policies hold much weight.
Why have  idiotic ****** policy’s  ,
  Noachian   laughable stupid  comedy’ s ,
Dems and ‘cons have  led America astray ,
The   Greens shall save America today.
Heoric Verse
larry mintz Sep 2024
America gets fooled at the ballot box ,
Bucky Fuller shined a light out of duopoly’s might,
Can America get unstuck,see the light ?
Do vote for what you Want,this will seal the deal,
Every vote counts,if it is not same o’ same ‘ o crap,
Forego anyone who supports the MIE,that’s the rap,
Go for a party that can advance some utopian ideal.

Help the Earth become a beautiful place to live,
Insure everyone in your ‘hood is taken care of,
Jill Stein’s manifesto -a breath of fresh air,
Know her manifesto with an open mind- if you dare,
Love everyone with a flaming heart,
Mankind is your kin for the most part.

No more thinking third parties are spoiler votes,
Only you can bring the change,
People have to stop drinking the duopoly’s cool aid,
Question everything.
Read Radical Mycology by Peter Maccoy,
Such an eye opening book you will enjoy.

Thevenusproject.com shows the future,
Utopia or Oblivion by Fuller,shows the facts of life,
Verily look at book for future direction,
Why would you want anything less than perfection?
Xenophobia in our brave new world has no part.
You can be a trail blazer-shine your light.
Zion,not Isreal,paradise on Earth will reign  suprem

You cap the pergola everyday.

You seek much money I surely say.
And being  lone is  a wellspring
The buds are  veiled  from the sun. yea yea.
So take much care of your welfare too
You pagan beau of the Earth true blue
Always a bachelor so you are glad
A green vine  looks like a twin not sad  .
Symbiosis
And sunlight shining thru canopy
The buds are  shining thru darkness too.
And view the terrific majesty
The shade is slick as I speak to you.
And vines that. wreak.in much practically
And vines that hang in my face, so true.
Long green vines vines that will touch you so
Long green vines sometimes they loved oh no.
These green vines  meanings lie to  thee
These. green vines. climbing all over me.

A lunar moth sublime will fly to light

You feel like a flower thirsting for drink,
A flower in the desert,  mind  a foul well,
Relying  on others is not all so swell,
You feel like an anchor pulled down on the brink..
Anxiety flows in you up and down,
You  have weak muscles , call the doctor too,
  You  have chronic joint pains you are due,
Old life is dead; no time for  a meltdown .
The Sun does shine on all with or without strife,
And being happy  are   like colored flowers,
Bouquet of  flowers ,differ smell just as sweet
It is now a new beginning of your life
The practice of mindfullness empowers
And find hobbies too- find new folk to meet

The Trip to hospital,
The operation and Treatment,
Off to rehab centre,
The Best of times,
End times.

My leg feels funny call Ben he says call Steve,
Steve arrives,off to the hospital we go,
I will never walk again-Freaking out,
I need an emergency operation,
The Trip to hospital.

I had an op to remove a blood clot,
Woke up 10 days later Leg looked like crap,
Started treatment at the hospital pronto,
I had it twice daily I felt despondent ,
The operation and Treatment.

I can walk for a short time,
I develop  thrombosis in right leg,
Fixed it . Doctors says infections are gone,
I was released finally. I was happy,
Off to rehab centre.

I visited my cousin in B. C..
I took draughrsmanship and painting lessons.
I used to do gardening for 8 years.
I must have paiinted twenty or more paintings.
The Best of times.

The food here is better than the VIGI,
I go thedepot to eat once a week,
Other times I go elsewhere,
I write poetry and study the runes,
End times.

Strophe
I
O mycorrhiza, natures inter net.
This inter net does keep all plants alive .
It beats out what our race has thought as yet.
The natural world around it does thrive.
II
Trees struck by lightning ,finished by decay.
The  Net enacts signs to the  biosphere
Mycorrhiza knows and does save the day.
The Net does save the ecosphere is that clear ?

III
This food does helps a lot  of damaged trees.
Trees kept alive as long as they can stand.
The Net restores a lot of trees with ease
Mycorrhiza the way to heal the land.

IV
‘shrooms good  to eat I relay at  the least
The Lions mane ,Reishi are good  for health
Find Boletes and Chanterels -what a feast! ,
And the Turkey-tail shroom, Wow !you own wealth

Antestrophe
I
Fire burns deadwood at the place  it does fall
They free up space ; release fresh food they do.
Black Morels grow in burnt out soil ,I recall
Remember the sun and rain they help too.

II
Eat meat and fowls and fish all good for you
Drink  V8 it will keep you so healthy  
Eat  fruit and veggies all good for you too
Deduce the rede above you are wealthy .

III
And many mushrooms are poisonous too,
The Fly Agaric white spotted red cap ‘shroom ,
The Sickener ,red cap-white stripe bad for you,
Fly Agaric most likely brings your  doom.

IV
The Deathcap mushroom surely is deadly,
There are many others that aren’t reckoned,
Eating a deadly one  kills you quickly,
Unknown shroom located, it should be questioned.

Epode
I
The fifth kingdom is  surely wondrous,
We know a little measure about fungus,
In school it’s in microbiology ,
We know more  on standard biology.
II
There’s a field called Radical Mycology ,
Peter McCoy created this hip field,
Earth’s  Net as model of ecology,
If you practise carefully you should get healed. .

III
When picking strange mushrooms carry a  guide ,
If you eat them your ride might be a hurst,
If they are edible  wash them ,try them fried ,
Do not heed  my advice|things might be worst .

IV
And Natures ' Net  does hold plants together
It feeds them all  in good or bad weather  ,
And eating healthy food keeps one stout ,
And Natures. ways certainly deep I shout !

Poem To My Former Self
larry mintz Dec 2024
To my former self.:
I died today .I could not  continue
It happened in St Margaret’s nursing home
Old age ,rules my grace  rotted thru and thru
I  practiced void mind meditation too
Death was painless .No need to reincarnate
My mind void like space like a hawk -I fly
To my old life and its problems good bye.

To the living .:practice void meditation
Identify your mind with voidness
Then your karma free of devastation
Upon death you are free
Free of humanity’s state  stupidity

Old age homes liberty stunted I speak
Life force ****** out of you as leech ***** blood
Live well be healthy  nature trekking-good
Connect with all life but be unique
Else you will lose what you are-become weak
“Write a poem in which you speak after your own death. Imagine what death looks and feels like, what your emotions are. What advice can you give to the living?”

Gaza is a burning house,no end in sight.
Diplomacy is a water moccasin .
Israel maims their victims- a horrid plight
Bitter is a rank lime ,this war a no-win.
The Nerthus folk  shout Gaza is not right.
Benji's far right politics surely a stinking sin,

Stop the maelstrom  Now !Give peace as an olive branch

Benji's war talk to Congress -he is such a liar.
Biden sends troops to Isreal to fight.
AntiDems and the 'cons both conspire.
Risk is a slick road- its American might.
Palestines anger is a raging fire.
No Gaza cease fire that is in sight .
Judgement  is Lady Liberty-comes for all
The guilty combatants finally will fall

Stop the maelstrom  Now !Give peace as an olive branch

I spread the news using X and Substack.
I am just one man. I do the best I can.
I spread the news using  Tribal too .
All of Humanity  could stop this fire.
Either all live as one State with equal rights.
or as two States equal else perish together.

Stop the maelstrom  Now !Give peace as an olive branch

Silence is sunlight softly kissing your mind
Soaring like an eagle,do not feel caged

I found a single room I felt realigned
Your food is better,I can eat it too
And the staff is like the best honeyed mead
When called they take care of me I am pleased
And the portions are small,nothing I can do

There are perks at last place list them will you
It has a cafe where I ate 6 days a week
A  patio covered with vines.,no doubt
It held bbq's for residences  twice a month too
The Sunshine cafe is quite a boutique

(Stained Lotus Sutra)
When you **** a person you destroy their
    dignity, you take a flower rip it to shreds
    and then you **** all over it, you call yourself
    a victor!  Battered ****** bodies everywhere,
    you don’t care.
Inwardly  speaking y’all have a superiority        
    complex, the ZioNazi State of Isreal and its  
    accomplices have this complex, you think
    your  egos soar like hawks but they sink
    like sinking ships of gory glory.
  By association we **** too, we should all feel  
    disgusted.Resist with every fibre of your
    being, a superior and healthy society is
    Othala and a gold chain to the Cosmos...
Arguing with a homicidal State is like
    jumping on thin ice and expecting to stay
    dry, dream on, ‘murica your collective
    mind is much like a rotting corpse, your  
    mid  east policies make Vlad the Impaler
    look like St Thomas Aquinas..
How do you deal with their **** ? The hipsters    
    created a circle around the Pentagon  in the  
    Sixties shouting Out Demons Out ! My
    departed friend mentioned without doubt.
Team Purple are like vampires they will ****
    the life out of America and leave it burnt
    bone dry.
For Team Purple the vote is NO CONFIDENCE
To stave off their March of Madness, vote
    for the G.P,Jill Stein policies new, do promote.
Harris is Benji’s *****, she is incompetence
    Hope is the USS Missouri sinking
    Harris ending Gaza war -leery thinking.

A Mycelium That Speaks
larry mintz Oct 2024
Dear Human
I am glad you came to me seeking rede.
Surprised that my intelligence is greater.
and different than yours.-nuff said.

You are wondering how this is possible?
Our species is pan galactic.- plausible.

All cells  neuron’s as your boffins surmise ,
Terrestrial cells are 2-20 micro meters in length .Celestials vary in size.

Neuron cells on earth grew  -are called hyphae.
Over cosmic time cosmic cells grew into huge hyphae .and then into hyper intelligence ..
Your more aware scientist think the cosmos
is alive.

Our species on earth. create an organic network
It did not take much guesswork - just teamwork,
In space races linked  into one  mind
A unitary  mind -where no soul  is blind ,
Before this happens  Humans must stop war
Turn weaponry into livingry, forevermore
And put into practice works of Fuller too
The Cosmic envoys messages are due,
Also the Venus Project  is important
If it is wisely installed not discordant,

I read your mind ,Child..I jest not..
Lastly eating mushrooms are good for you.
Cook them in a ***.
Good for brain bones and flesh too.
Eating Lions Maine improves your brain..

Yours in unity

The town is a sleeping jungle,in disguise.
Arizona Aspens ,I clarify.
The Bytar path is a highway road .
And the Lamp in the sky is like the sun.

Cars swoosh by me like silent dragon flies
Many dragon flies jammed in on the highway.
And many sky scapers,far from highway.
The town is a sleeping jungle,in disguise.

And St Margarets southern side Dragons lie.
The leaves green is the armor -cleans the air ..
And those look out a lovely scene,so fair.
Arizona Aspens ,I clarify..

And The Lamp in the sky is for everyone
There were clouds ,ball of fire in sky too.
Fix your mind on ball of fire,can you?
And the Lamp in the sky is like the sun .

And the Bytar highway cuts east to west.
When I look at it it can make you depressed

The Angel oak boughs  lovely to behold
This horary tree so blest a grand tree.
Old  trees to behold are  the huge Redwoods,
Clear cutting woods they made me quite angry.
Lay me down to rest ;my soul feels not old
Those who **** ancient forests go to Hell.

Ancient forests wrecked I'm angry as Hell,
Angraboda tree the Angel oak - behold    
Other beatific trees are the Redwoods,
The  red oak rusty brown bark a grand tree.
Cutting these trees down-I'm ****** angry,
And pols are vermin their plans way to old

Trees like a skyscraper th epic  redwoods
And hike thru these woods when I was not old
I sat at rest beneath a cedar tree.
Those who destroy them are stupid as Hell
Old growth forests a biome  please behold  
Lay waist to old growth woods I am angry,

Most of the old growth gone makes me angry
I wonder what critters live in Redwoods.
The hair of Jord visit it and behold
I walked thru the green when I was not old
The forest were bare of old trees,oh hell
Old growth Cedars are one hell of a tree,  

What type of vibe could I get from that tree?
Logging roads in BC  grave ,I'm angry,
To lazy to help these pols belong in hell,
Love to muse beneath a  pair of Redwoods.
Protest clear cutting this method not old
Clear  cutting woods -a plain shock to behold..

Envoi:
I am wheelchair bound my protest days to old
Time to stop logging Redwoods ,no,oh Hell,
An Angel oak tree I want to behold.

I have a bunch of plights please -answer Sir..
Your meeting with alien official .
Your reasons taking help from a sly race. ?
We needed   primacy over Russia .
I stated the friendly races can  help too.
We would  be at the mercy of Russia .
  I like your view on States-hood too.
And Ike said thank you Other remarks to add?
I said “ The way you taxed the rich was fab.
I said fab means. right  idea at right time.
And Ike replied fine. Anything else he asked.
I like your view on political parties.
And Ike said thank you  and anything else .
Your last speech on the military came true.
And Ike got ****** ,events are getting  worst.
And Isreal is now the new  **** nation.
And doing crimes of war for mankind to see.
I showed him  slides of what zionists  do !
We gave them rights. They act like  ****’s too.
And Ike replied. what else went straight to hell
I stated yes Isreal owns the States too.
I said it is true and Ike  complained quite loudly.
From J F Kennedy. until the present.
The States  will  jump  at Israel’s  complaining.
  Upon  relaying this news he got irate.
And two more things I have to mention Sir.
For thirty five years the rich pay no taxes.
And lastly the States went completely fascist.
And Ike  growled I fought  and died for nothing.
Those who despoiled this land are traitors.
And Ike left to take care of traitors too .

Trump Win
larry mintz Nov 2024
I woke up to find Trump won the election
  And what does this mean for the States?
And will Donald J Trump be a fascist
Or will he be a strong man  president

Is Donald J Trump  the best selection?
I think who will be his subordinates
Folk  state from the news Trump is a ******
I hope his admin. is on the upsend

And no war on his watch -my predeliction
And what machinations does he orchastrates
How many think Trump is a sexist ?
A president surely has dividends

Algiz at North West a blessing
What is the weak link in the chain,
What is strong and needs protecting
Unhealthy links -remove that strain.

What is the weak link in the chain ?
You should feel strong like a steel rope .
Unhealthy links -remove those strain
Be helpless I hope I can cope.

You should feel strong like a steel rope
And unconnected to Godhead .
Be helpless I hope I can  dope  
Can fill you with plenty of dread.

And unconnected to Godhead
What is strong and needs protecting.
Can fill you with plenty of dread
Algiz at North West a blessing.

Erotic Landscape

The animals are ***** and rutting
The plants are tall and green pollen breezy,
And mushrooms like tiny *****  jetting
The rolling Hills are pregnant not sleezy,
The lakes are *** -I try not to be cheezy.

The trees are ***** like a *******
The  trees ***** ready to gush -I state,
The hills are round and smooth,hard like a rock
The hills are pregnant with life,I dictate,
The soil is ***** black with life I reinstate breezy .

Employers state you got no knack .

In due course  I went on Welfare ,
Employers state you got no knack
Relaid to my mom it felt like warfare .

In due course  I went on Welfare
And jobless my status was dire

Evolutionary Letter #26

Cantos Uno  Obsessive Eclipse Octavia
Israel  is like a mote on mankind’s face
Born on May 14 1948 ,
A host of problems a ****** disgrace
I see two  eclipses to change it’s fate,
A lunar eclipse Sept 7  next year
Can Israel change it ways and transcend
Dec 28 2 years  away  I fear
Which   lunar eclipse  could fulfill the trend.

There are some partial lunar eclipses  too
They are 4 and 5 years apart in time ,
Will these doom angels assure Isreal is through?
Israel gone -time for Palestine to shine
And The last eclipse is to far away,
I might be dead that time who is to say
The first partial eclipse I will be here  ,
What doom will I find on the blogosphere

  Cancer is on Israel’s  tenth house end
Saturn in Cancer a weak place for sure ,
Moon  in tenth conjunct Saturn -a  friend
The Moon godliness. for Saturn is the cure,
Let us look at the Nakshatra for the Moon
A  godly message for  Israel -a  boon ?
The   Moon’s Nakshatra is in the 8th cell
Pushya acts godly as far I can tell.

Cantos Duo: Considerazioni Astrologiche

And Israel’s 7th house cusp is Aries. too
And plenty of foreign disputes to date
And  Mars in Leo in the 11th -true
Ready for war that it anticipates
For Israel it is not an good investment  
This behaviour just brings resentment
Israel can be  to aggressive to some  
To self assured in disputes they think they won

But the 7th house is Israel’s allies
When Mars transits the Tenth time for a coup
With the above config allies strategize
Mars nakshatra,Magha great success too
Sun is in Taurus -gets resources from friends
Ruled by Venus in the 9th bucks never end
Wars it undertakes they feel surely blest
Wars it undertakes ,it feels it passed the test

The Sun’s Nakshatra is called Krittaka
The Sun  acts like a persona non grata

Envoi: Concluding Comments

  Israel’s  politic views are  swine
Eclipses  purport drastic change
Warn Israel free Palestine
If you don’t change you are deranged

Take no crap from Zionists too
And they twist facts to thier taste
If we do mankind is *******
Set them straight else all is a waste

Not all Jews are Zionists too
These Jews think these folk are morons ,
Please I ask don’t conflate the two
No,  then you  will get  a sermon.

When doing math I feel despair,
I can not find the correct proof.
And my mind flies round in the air,
I go nuts and go through the roof.

What is the next step ,is it true ?
I can not find the correct proof.
Is it correct ? Great ! Wrong I’m *******,
I go nuts and go through the roof.

And lost steps are like a black hole,
I can not find the correct proof.
Time to put proof in toilet bowl ?
I go nuts and go through the roof.

My mind a puzzle with lost bits,
I can not find the correct proof.
I feel like a dried leaf  -no wits,
I go nuts and go through the roof.

I can not find the correct proof
And my mind flies round in the air
I go nuts and go through the roof
When doing math I feel despair

Holiday Blues
larry mintz Dec 2024
Having a hollow holiday
Bored and barren blue days ahead,
And days like this fill me with dread
Having a hollow holiday.

Bored and barren blue days ahead
And during these times I feel blue,
I feel like a sinking ship too
Bored and barren blue days ahead .

And during these times I feel blue
Will my uncle show this recess ?
And will my ex  rid my distress
And during these times I feel blue.

Will my uncle show this recess ?
Days like this **** being disabled I say,
Will my uncle show this recess ?
Having a hollow holiday.

Having a hollow holiday
Bored and barren blue days ahead,
And days like this fill me with dread
Having a hollow holiday.

Elegy for a Stranger
larry mintz Dec 2024
I see your pic and I am horrified
The way they killed you I feel mortified .
You look like  volcanic ash petrified you
You are certainly missed by loved ones too.
We  have families ,hopes and dreams to live out
If you were living you would be kin no doubt .
I blame the monstrous horrid Jews for your doom
Israel  needs to be put in a tomb.
I have zero pity for Zionists
This philosophy is full of holes and ****.

The Rose of Jericho is a grim plant,
The Spider Orchid leafs are a tumbled mess ,Looking at this plant where's the charm I confess ,
The Rose of Jericho’s leafs are dried ,gross not scant .
The rat tail cactus is foul to .behold,
It’s tail like tentacles  look like  spiky strips,
And string the leafs together use them for whips,
The cactus flowers are lovely I am told.
What flowers are awesome during the night?
The Evening primrose has a strong scent too,
The Moon flower is lovely to behold.
These flowers shine bright ;they do not need light  ,
This plant  has fatty acids ,good for you ,
This  flower blooms are spiral  I am told .

Christmas is like a grim moth -woe,
I had turkey meals at a church.
Make  holidays fine - need research,
Christmas is like a grim moth -woe.

I had turkey meals at a church,
Lots of folks.  you. aren’t alone.
I felt like the Grouch I   atoned,
I had turkey meals at a church.

Lots of folks.  you. aren’t alone,
And picky women are like moths.
Fly to the light -strong and not frauds,
Lots of folks.  you. aren’t alone.

And picky women are like moths,
holidays can fill you with cheer .
And pass the Bailey’s creme and beer,
And picky women are like moths.

Christmas is like a grim moth -woe,
Having turkey meals at a church.
Make  holidays fine - need research,
Christmas is like a grim moth woe.
