dead...that's what you are...
dead...for all, you are...
clumsy hands are all that are
left for you...
mutatis mutandis,
praemonitus,
praemunitus eris
sed qui me dixit moritum
est hominibus?
qui me dixit, non est,
sed somnum habere?
and that waking up was a thing that just wasn't there...
but I WAS to believe...
yahweh...blasphemous..."jehovah's" children...
yahoo!...is yet, the talk of the times...
sitting idyllic on the brick wall...denuded...red all over...
are you out of your mind?...what's the matter?
...and the hose-pipe is set...the thoughts gush out...smothering you...
it's been the dark night's work...and I am sitting all alone...
thinking 'bout you...you, who's not there...
and never to have known you with days passing by...
I probably will never commit...
there's so much do now and such little time...
that I cannot forget...
what you were...you are...

You had become an expert at
Helping people go
You knew exactly what they needed
if they were going to palm tree skies or
to breath that always looked minty fresh

You had become an expert at
Filling bellies
You knew exactly how to gauge
The potential of the suitcase according to all
Scheduled meetings and recreational activities

You had become an expert at
Letting things through
You knew exactly how to pull
The thread through all his loose buttons
While you waited for him to come back.

You sewed back his negligence
with fingers suppressed with haldi*
That pushed deep into your nails like
A home remedy for faster fingers,
You watched reruns of who’s the boss
Switching between
Reversed gender roles and Madhuri dixit.

When you ran out of buttons to sew you
Opened up the windows so the dust can
Bake you a cake on the shelves
So you could eat it all on your own,
with one clean sweep. It is your birthday.

Everyday the clock is like a see saw
you sit on all alone
while he is on a swing set with his
feet pushing the ground he knows
how to move on his own
how to touch the sky -
you were never taught
how to be your own friend.
But it is never too late to make friends.

Have you ever tried the slide?
there are no limits
To how many times you can climb

So slide, glide
let go of gravity,
undress from reality
We keep shedding like the moon,
glowing like torches inside us
that help us stand out
from the crowd.

take your turmeric magic
and build a fire with the friction
of your spine and your mind
sprinkle it on
the crackling heat...

we all need fire to keep us warm.

Veteran fashion designer Tarun Tahiliani believes that the Indian fashion industry has become more organised and a little more professional.

Best known for his ability to infuse Indian craftsmanship and textile heritage with European tailored silhouette, Tahiliani believes that the Indian fashion industry has become more strategised and cemented over the last 20 years.

"India's propensity to consume is gaining an international audience and this is changing the competitive landscape," Tahiliani told IANS in an email interview.

"It has certainly become more organised and a little more professional, and obviously the market has exploded, but I think that we still have a long way to go in terms of being more business oriented and there's still room to get more organised and professional," the designer added.

Eulogizing the new and younger crop of designers, Tahiliani, who has over two decades of experience in the industry, believes that they are doing well in terms of the handloom and textile industry.

"What's really heartening to see is that there are so many younger designers who are going places and are doing so well in terms of the handloom and textile industry... it has become more organised. I think handloom was very localised in terms of weavers with a certain look from a certain area sold through certain channels," said the Co-Founder of Ensemble -- a multi-designer boutique.

"There has been a lot more creative freedom and other regions are experimenting with textile alien to their region, especially if they are more lucrative. As long as people appreciate traditional craftsmanship and embroideries, machine work will never replace the richness of hand embroidery," he added.

Asked if the plus-size models are yet to move into the mainstream industry in India?

"Well, they should have moved into the mainstream long back. But are not normally associated with very expensive high fashion and couture," Tahiliani said.

Having draped most of the leading ladies of Bollywood like Priyanka Chopra, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Madhuri Dixit-Nene in his creations, Tahiliani says that fashion is his muse, not a Bollywood star.

"Art, architecture, interiors, history, travel and maharajas... My inspiration comes from many things. Sometimes it's from beautiful inlay work that I've seen in a fabulous monument; other times my inspiration can be something as simple as a beautiful kanjeevaram weave," he said.

"Ultimately, however, my inspiration comes from India's rich traditions of craftsmanship, particularly when it comes to things like embroideries that we have in India. Nothing is more amazing than beautifully executed, intricate and fine technique. I don't design clothes keeping a Bollywood star in mind, but rather for the new age contemporary woman," he added.

Tahiliani is all geared up to showcase his collection The Last Dance of the Courtesan at the FDCI India Couture Week 2016 on Thursday here. He has artistically blended fabrics like cotton jacquards, cotton silks, crepes and cutwork jamdanis with Swarovski crystals for the range.

That's not all. He will next participate in the Vogue Wedding Show and then the prestigious Lakme Fashion Week, to be held in Mumbai in August.

"I will present my Ready to Wear Autumn Winter 16-17 collection at Lakme Fashion Week. It has been inspired by the works of Mrinalini Mukherjee (late sculptor) and the journey only gets bigger and better from here," he said.Read more at:http://www.marieaustralia.com/formal-dresses-sydney | www.marieaustralia.com/pink-formal-dresses

EIΔΩΛΩ OVERMAN.
Set in A.D. 1187, and propounded in monumental characters, as engraved in the rock, this epic of mine in Classical Latin, Ancient Greek, Anglo-Saxon and Old Norse tells of a superhuman clash between two knights who are in fact the same person. The alliteration focuses on the roots "FEODAL-" and "FEVD-" indicating "feudal" and "feud", as repeated with different declensions. From one single mirror battle action, chief philosophical notions of mine thus surface, all centered on my notion of Overman, alongside various historical and metaphysical symbols, as the Grail itself (“G. R. A. I. L.”, as an anagram, with an added meaning). The title EIΔΩΛΩ OVERMAN reads "The Overman through the Image" ("EIΔΩΛΩ" instrumental dative of the neuter "TO EIΔΩΛON", "image", also "phantom", "spectre" and "wraith", depending on textual circumstances). My own Return of Power event is mentioned ("MVTATIO SIVE REVOLVTIO SIVE POTENTIÆ INCREMENTVM AD INFINITVM IGNEVM"). An influence can be noticed from the song of Bertran De Born († 1140-1215 ca.) "Bem Platz lo Gais Temps de Pascor".

VELTRVM.
A composition of mine in Classical Latin and ancient Greek. The title VELTRVM is a latinization (neuter) of Dante's Veltro, the Greyhound, in Canto I of the Inferno, whose prophecy is herein superhumanly exceeded into One Universal Avenger, the Restorer of the ΛOΓΟΣ as Order, appearing through thirty historical phases, which form the relevant pentastic stanzas. At each phase He is manifested as a king (REX I, REX II, REX III, etc.) and at each phase recurs more powerful (KOΣMΩ POTENTIÆ IN RECVRSV) taking the form of a fiery coil of a dragon (IGNEA H ΣΠΕIΡΑ), thus ruling over the future, as well as the past, through an ultimate spiral-like historical-cosmic purification at length merging into One Force with the image of the narrator (IMAGINE MEA VIS CHALYBIS VNA). Allegorically, the thirty coils of the Great Vengeance as well as Rebellion (cosmically intended as touching, also, whatsoever intrinsic human limit) revolve (REVOLVVNT) three times at the sound of an Apocalyptic Bell (HΧΩ CAMPANÆ THΣ ΑΠΟΚΑΛΥΨΗΣ), upon the appearance of REX (king) X, ** and ***, as his own human, that is, overhuman image reverberates over these coils, which are golden (AVRÆ EIΔΩΛΩ DE VELTRVM SPIRÆ). This indicates a threefold sequence of three historical decenaries (DECENARIVS I, II, III):

The core elements in my notion of Triad of Power, Being as Power (ΤO ΕIΝΑΙ ΩΣ H ΔYΝΑΜΙΣ), the Overman (O ΔE OVERMAN) and Becoming as Increase in Power (TO ΓΊΓΝΕΣΘΑΙ ΩΣ ΔYΝΑΜΙ H EΠIΔΟΣΙΣ) accordingly appear within a tripartite historical sequence.

ΔIA ΓAP TO EMON ΚΑΤOΠΤΡON KAI APXAIA ΦΛOΓI O ΤΙΜΩΡOΣ

Through my Mirror and the Ancient Blaze (with reference to Dante, Inferno, Canto XXVI, 85 ff.), thus the Avenger.  

As in Dante, Henry VII, Holy Roman Emperor († 1313) is mentioned (HENRICI VII SOLE VISENS RVBRO MONIMENTA VICTORIS). An influence from the Theology of History and the rhythmical REVOLVERE ÆTATES (the unfolding of the sequences of historical eras) in the Liber Figurarum of Joachim of Fiore († 1202), as well as from Nostradamus’ († 1566) Centuries may thus be noticed. The final anagram VXD reads VINDEX XYSTO DÆMON, or "the Avenger Demon (in the Greek sense of "ΔΑIΜΩΝ") through the Xystus (an ancient portico with columns, instrumental ablative)". It also translates, in Roman numerals, as "Five, Ten, Five Hundred", having thus a precise prophetic-historical meaning, akin to the one in Dante's Purgatorio, XXXIII, 43. As in John Scotus Eriugena’s († 877) Carmina, the text is capitalized. References to Classical and Norse mythology are included.


SIVE VINDICTÆ KOΣMΩ MAGNÆ AC TEMPORE

Or through the Universe (KOΣMΩ, instrumental dative) of the Great Revenge (VINDICTÆ... MAGNÆ), and the Time (AC TEMPORE, a historical time, as thus one with the Force of the Cosmos).

VBI DE TERTIA VIGILIA STAT ANTE SPECVLVM PERSONA IGNEVM MEA

Where, at Midnight (DE TERTIA VIGILIA), my Person before the Fiery Mirror stands.

FODIT DOMINATOR ΞΙΦIΔΙΩ SENNACHERIB DVELLO LEONEM REGNO IGITVR DIGNVS AC DELVBRO

Sennacherib the Ruler (king of the Neo-Assyrian Empire, † 681 B.C.), in single combat (DVELLO) the Lion he pierces with the Dagger (ΞΙΦIΔΙΩ), thus of his Kingdom and of the Shrine (proving himself) worthy (REGNO IGITVR DIGNVS AC DELVBRO). (This scene refers to real Assyrian customs as portrayed in bas-reliefs.)

ILLE SECVTOR QVI ARGENTEA LVNA APPAREAT SICVT CHALYBEIO SCVTO AC FLAMMIS

He, the Secutor (a type of Roman gladiator, with his face masked), who appears through the Silvery Moon as the Shield of Steel, and the Flames.

VBI THORAX SICVT SPECVLVM CÆCANS REFLEXIT MEVS SPLENDOREM IRÆ

Where my Cuirass, like a Mirror, reflected the blinding Glare of the Rage.

VBI MEAM ALABASTRI IN RVPE VLTIONEM INSCVLPSI SOLISQVE ANNO MXCVII

Where I have graven my Vengeance (MEAM… VLTIONEM INSCVLPSI), and that of the Sun (SOLISQVE), within the Rocky Cliff of Alabaster (ALBASTRI IN RVPE), in the year 1097 (ANNO MXCVII).

VENIT NERONIS VMBRA DIVI IGNEA MIHI AC LYCAON REGNANS

Came to me, the Fiery Shadow of the Godlike Nero, and the ruling Lycaon (legendary king of Arcadia).

NVNC TIBI ARES COMMENDO ME TEVCRVS EΠIΦANEIA AC IGNEM

Now I entrust myself to thee, Ares (Greek god of war, the Roman Mars, vocative), I the Trojan, (TEVCRVS) through the Mirror, (EΠIΦANEIA, also 'appearance') and the Fire (AC IGNEM).

ΩΣ ΑYΤΩΣ EΠΙΣΤΡΟΦH TO ΚYΜΑ THΣ EΜΠΡΗΣΕΩΣ EK TOY EMOY ΕIΣΟΠΤΡΟY

Not otherwise than thus, through the Return, the Wave of the Blaze, from out my Mirror.


Molti son li animali a cui s'ammoglia,
e più saranno ancora, infin che 'l veltro
verrà, che la farà morir con doglia.

Many are the animals with whom she (the she-wolf) mates, and
there shall be more still, until the greyhound shall
come, who shall make her die in pain.

Dante, Inferno, Canto I, 100-102.


Emperor Probus († A.D. 282, assassinated) was particularly devoted to the cult of the Sol Invictus, as herein evoked.

No.
Dixit ergo Iesus ad duodecim, “Numquid et vos vultis abire?”

“Will you also go away?” He asks us.

                                                        ­              No.

Only sinners mourn at the foot of the Cross
Only sinners approach the baptismal font
Only sinners recline at Table with the Lord

To whom shall we go?
                                   An empty shopping mall?
A 501C cafeteria?
A feast of ashes with the cardinal?
                                                       ­               No.

There is only one Place, one Space, one Grace

Only sinners are invited, and so
Our yes to Him – we will not go

It’s not at all reactionary, tho’ it might be drivel.
Mateuš Conrad Jul 2017
any reading of a philosophy book, outside of university, is mapped without the sort of strategy to receive a grade, for a "correct" interpretation (rather a regurgitation) of said work (mentioned below); to say it in simpler terms: i do not ever think that understanding a concept - in concreto - is worth some sort of "passing on the genes" (memes) of one individual to another - given that a meme has become pop culture, and as the french would put it:
        ce crasse et petit irritante chiotte valeur de merde
                                                                ­                        (i.e. un cliché) -
truly written like and englishman -
   a meme is that crass and small irritant bog's worth of ****
                                                            ­                                           ( " ),
   at least that's peckham french, del boy french,
                         i was well informed about this french dialect.

- and to even "think" why there are so many blue
indians, and so few piggies; perhaps it boils down
to the fact that the blue indians believe in
   burial within fire, rather than earth,
  and they prefer to surround themselves with the living,
rather than with the dead; and piggies do,
  graveyard upon graveyard,
    and that constant "nostalgia", idol-worship
of the past, where nothing greater can come again;
for those who surround themselves with the living,
their existence rages akin to the elemental
tomb of their burial... but for those who surround
themselves with the dead,
   their existences decompases akin to the elemental
tomb of their burial, a heart-broken: nightmarish
earth. -

for some reason, i always get these
"revelations" (for lack of a better word) -
as one might receive a signature
of a thunderstorm in the form of
lightning upon the sky -
           and it usually predicated by
listening to a few pop songs -
   and then listening to the
    *cantos of templar knights
-
            but then again, you sometimes
really need extremes,
     as the canadian sayings goes -
we only have two seasons,
    one's winter, the other is construction.

but this is about technicalities,
one could even cite the following as
the part of any contract, the terms & conditions
written in the smallest possible print,
   lodged in hardbacks worth over 30 quid -
not your cheap bestseller paperbacks -
   those too could be appreciated,
   but akin to pressure to keep a worth's of
expression in sanctum of a hardback?
   take the year 1996 for the cantos 1st
on toilet-paper (paperback) - but in brick?
take the year 1970...
  and where do the technicalities come in?

   - heidegger's ponderings V, aphorism 41 -
technicalities akin to the rules of
a game of cricket, or at least the pointing system.

but count it nonetheless, half an hour to scroll...
12,700+... till i got to april the 8th
  and resurrect a memory?

                  sighs from on high...
      and laughter into the depths.


let us just say, that digital is
the new hardback edition -
    to condense my works into toilet-paper
till take more years and more pushy-pushy
tactics, to transform
     a hardback into something affordable...
but in reverse...
               what comical inversion,
   30 years will become 300 years to come
  about for someone to wipe-their-***-to-mouth
fathom of what went on at the genesis
of the birth of the internet,
   in some obscure location,
                  like a catholic school in england.

now the germanic pilot-plotline (regarding
aphorism 41, ponderings V):

    promo enigma-alchimia in vivo lingua,
             anti ipse (dixit) in lingua vitro.


(we're not in posh-boy grammar school,
the language is dead, it's become play-dough,
a malagrammaton-monœgo:
for a man's tongue is to his befitting desire
to state the terms of play).

da / ein-da / die-da          vs.                hier   vs.
                                      die-hier / ein-da


( there / a there / the there        vs.
                                                ­                 here    vs.
  the here / a there    -
                                
                               ­ atheistic scissors of
definite/indefinite articles/articulation of
    what's near, and what's far away,
     the dualistic-dichotomy of here&there,
  then&now...
           as far as i am concerned i cannot narrate
this akin to a vampire romance page-turner
bestseller... too many organic chemistry diagrams
concerning electron migration, sorry) -

   but given the "blank" slate genesis, starting
with articles... they go beyond being categorised
as definite or indefinite...
    namely... am i, or can i be assured that
      there's no X variations?
    i.e.
                da     ein da
                      X
       die hier     hier            ???????????????

               isn't ein hier merely "being"?
imagine being forced into a there -
                  without being the there,
akin to a zeitgeist, akin less!
      zeitgeist = a there (communism),
  but the there? that's what hegel
said of napoleon entering jena:
       "das ist ein weltgeist!" (capitalism).

and who are the anglophones?
  i cannot respect these "peoples" -
they constantly stutter when it comes to
  their lack of diacritical application,
they stutter... i might as well call them
the strabismus race...
    and if darwinism is to be the vector-catalyst
(hollywood was thrashing american cities
for decades, what damage could this
observation could possibly do?) -
  if darwinism is to be the prime historian,
that darwinism replaces actual history
and becomes neither in vitro, nor in vivo,
but in situ? why do scientists wonder why
universities are undermined in their
humanities, when scientific populism of
biology (i.e. darwinism) has undermined
papa historia? am i... missing something?!
     if you undermine a credible study within
the humanities with enough darwnism?
what do you get? inertia...
     you can burn crosses, but you can also
burn an image of a monkey into a man's mind,
the same result occurs!
      personally, i'd rather burn crosses,
i might end up drinking beer and joking with
a few skin-heads around an unsual campfire.

the other side just... "debates" loud-mouth
******* who haven't learned the gymnastics
of looking up those grandiose black-holes
of blah blah.... blah blah blah... blah...
     i'd like to ask them... does your **** of talk
ooze a perfume of.... strawberries?
   and the punk-fist fields... forever! ooh...
****** *******' salsa! shwing yir hips
ya bunch of conclaves (p.j.w.) - privacy
                     justice warriors).

        taoist's foregetfulness

grounded in maxim primus -
  to allow the world a breath, allow the world
to let you breathe as you deem fit,
   never too soon to be bound to genealogy,
esp. that of the genesis bound to
the new testament -
  for if the old testament begins with poetry,
and if truly metaphorically chained,
then how pitiful is the genesis of
the new testament, which begins with
  something as sorrowful as the nadir
of greek culture, the expired logos,
   a genealogy, with the greeks ransacking
the jews under roman rule,
  just like the ransacking of constantinople
by the venetians in 1204 (4th crusade)...
who'd start a "holy" book without poetry,
but a ******* geneaology?!
          no wonder poetry these days isn't
a rare appreciation...
    but cheap and as tsunami natured
   in its "production" as tabloid press,
  toothbrushes, toilet paper,
                        toothpicks, among other
                                               paraphernalia;
the new testament is such a massive turn-off...
if you don't begin with poetry,
esp. that of metaphor translated into imagery,
and instead begin with a branch of logic
that the new testament begins with, i.e.
genealogy... and then expect latter poetics
in the text to be taken literally?!
          clue the keen me into the clamours
of the poly-schismatic version of events...
    sure, christianity is a "polytheism",
                           in that it's poly-schismatic.

and of the garden, should adam have approached
first, as he would have done in asia -
         he would have talked with
the serpent sæwelō -
           perhaps that same serpent of
   caucasus - first, to have a thirst of
knowledge tamed - although never really -
  for the serpent sæwelō would have
tempted adam: eat of this tree, its fruit,
  and your thirst for knowledge will be
forever satiated!
   so said the serpent of order
   so said sæwelō (ᛋ), the sun-snake...
the serpent of illumination -
                            the golden serpent.
and so adam bit into the fruit,
   and such thirst as never before filled him,
a thirst for knowledge that hasn't
as of yet seized -
     for the fruit, which adam imagined
would be sweet - was actually filled with salt.

  and we are initiated into the myth
of how the other scenario took place with regards
to a woman approaching the serpent first,
       yes?
                and for the woman, the serpent
of chaos, known as ansuz (ᚨ) - the siamese -
who said both truth and lie simulatenously
  also known as the god who's name begins with
yod, in the roman tongue (Y),
                          and he said:
  you will know the difference between
good and evil -
    ah indeed he said so, but that said, it would
imply acts being simulatenously both,
rather than either / or -
he continued: you'll be like the æsir (gods)!
      knowing such distinctions,
                   and will know the meaning of fate,
and justice, and due recompense!

as etymological mutations occur,
   and translations into other tongues
go, let's begin with:

sieg heil - old english - sigel - hail sun!
       if ever a führer (the few, the rarer),
                        so too the sun's eclipse -
   louis xiv wouldn't have minded,
    but at least he ****** to his
         cockerel's content to praise sunrise -
but as it stands, an etymological
           "mutation" in translation: hail sun!

-------------------------- p.s. p.p.s. p.p.p.s. p.p.p.p.s.
    f(p.s.) ad infinitum: borrowing from
mathematics, i.e. f(x) - heidegger
invented the algebra of writing in a certain style
that's only worth a neurotic / autistic pedant's
worth of bother...

   let's just say, in terms of style,
                                        it's purely hellish,
   you can only go as far with a text
when the variations
  range from dasein, to da-sein
   to da-sein to da-sein (i.e. da-ßein) -
    to whatever else is enclosed in the book...
i haven't got the time to write
an expansion of these milimetres
            and a litre of *** waiting for me...

   inverse stress on being
              detached from a "there": da-ßein:

   with regard to the world and its being
   constituting beings (heidegger's style
of expression, i know, can be a muddle)...

all i wanted was an antonym:
   rather than the world and its there,
   i wanted the world and its nowhere,
or rather, a pure form of being: a here,
      being detached from beings,
   the infinite dance of "solipsism",
    mono-direct articulation /
   plural-direct articulation (a march) /
mono-indirect articulation (a thought) /
plural-indirect articulation (a commute home)...

in terms of dictionary ref. to oppose da (there):

ist da - is here
                hier - here
komm her! - come here!
           hier & da - here & there
                  auf der stelle - here & now

stelle:
       schnellen - quickly
   schwellen (ich bin) - i am swelling
schelle - bell
   bruchstelle - break

                            da-ßien = hiersien

i.e. stressor on being,
             which morphs into a reconstruction
of the original equation:

     i.e. "da"-ßien = hier-"sien" ≠ nichtsein...

    and the point being?
    the simple f(x) translation into philosophical
jargon... f(p.s.) ad infinitum...
                      this had to run into a cul de sac
at some point, given all the technicalities
and stylistic disparities between existentialists,
if any remained to live into the 21st century...
but the buggers ****** off
              let's just say the new wave
of concerning italics remains the still
unexplored territory of missing diacritical marks
in the english language...
    as much can be said about writing
            chair    as can be said about
   writing                  krzesło...
           (yes, a consonant grapheme, err-zed)...
funny, in grapheme terms...
   that the german grapheme ß
  never became a replacement of -sch-
     in english -sh- in slavic -sz-,
             seems to be more t'ss... wet snare...
          another example?
    (choo-choo) train / pociąg -
  and yes, that's not implying choo-choo,
   since it's obvious, the verb ćwiczyć:
to train.
ATL Jul 2019
little town camper girls gazing absently at the sun streams, rubber-clad feet coming together into a huddle of the same, with oil black hair shifting quick in the air and my larynx attempting to leap out of itself, my chest feeling thin as i carve through old conversations (imprinted underneath my dura mater)
i find danielle- a frog faced girl always frozen in stress
i picture you fretting amidst piles of clerical filth
i picture myself as a foolish mailman spitting half-thoughts into the face of someone searching for a more grounded approach
i used to be thrilled i wasn’t you but now i’m not quite so sure
misuse and embarrassment with the icicles that are my ribs, clamoring down your ladder,
which only ever had a rung or two to begin with
On y revient ; il faut y revenir moi-même.
Ce qu'on attaque en moi, c'est mon temps, et je l'aime.
Certes, on me laisserait en paix, passant obscur,
Si je ne contenais, atome de l'azur,
Un peu du grand rayon dont notre époque est faite.

Hier le citoyen, aujourd'hui le poète ;  
Le « romantique » après le « libéral ». -  Allons,
Soit ; dans mes deux sentiers mordez mes deux talons.
Je suis le ténébreux par qui tout dégénère.
Sur mon autre côté lancez l'autre tonnerre.

Vous aussi, vous m'avez vu tout jeune, et voici
Que vous me dénoncez, bonhomme, vous aussi ;
Me déchirant le plus allégrement du monde,
Par attendrissement pour mon enfance blonde.
Vous me criez : « Comment, Monsieur ! qu'est-ce que c'est ?
- La stance va nu-pieds ! le drame est sans corset !
- La muse jette au vent sa robe d'innocence !
- Et l'art crève la règle et dit : C'est la croissance ! »
Géronte littéraire aux aboiements plaintifs,
Vous vous ébahissez, en vers rétrospectifs,
Que ma voix trouble l'ordre, et que ce romantique
Vive, et que ce petit, à qui l'Art Poétique
Avec tant de bonté donna le pain et l'eau,
Devienne si pesant aux genoux de Boileau !
Vous regardez mes vers, pourvus d'ongles et d'ailes,
Refusant de marcher derrière les modèles,
Comme après les doyens marchent les petits clercs ;
Vous en voyez sortir de sinistres éclairs ;
Horreur ! et vous voilà poussant des cris d'hyène
A travers les barreaux de la Quotidienne.

Vous épuisez sur moi tout votre calepin,
Et le père Bouhours et le père Rapin ;
Et m'écrasant avec tous les noms qu'on vénère,
Vous lâchez le grand mot : Révolutionnaire.

Et, sur ce, les pédants en choeur disent : Amen !
On m'empoigne ; on me fait passer mon examen ;
La Sorbonne bredouille et l'école griffonne ;
De vingt plumes jaillit la colère bouffonne :
« Que veulent ces affreux novateurs ? ça des vers ?
- Devant leurs livres noirs, la nuit, dans l'ombre ouverts,
- Les lectrices ont peur au fond de leurs alcôves.
- Le Pinde entend rugir leurs rimes bêtes fauves,
- Et frémit. Par leur faute aujourd'hui tout est mort ;
- L'alexandrin saisit la césure, et la mord ;
- Comme le sanglier dans l'herbe et dans la sauge,
- Au beau milieu du vers l'enjambement patauge ;
- Que va-t-on devenir ? Richelet s'obscurcit.
- Il faut à toute chose un magister dixit.
- Revenons à la règle, et sortons de l'opprobre ;
- L'hippocrène est de l'eau ; donc le beau, c'est le sobre.
- Les vrais sages ayant la raison pour lien,
- Ont toujours consulté, sur l'art, Quintilien ;
- Sur l'algèbre, Leibnitz; sur la guerre, Végèce. »

Quand l'impuissance écrit, elle signe : Sagesse.

Je ne vois pas pourquoi je ne vous dirais point
Ce qu'à d'autres j'ai dit sans leur montrer le poing.
Eh bien, démasquons-nous ! c'est vrai, notre âme est noire ;
Sortons du domino nommé forme oratoire.
On nous a vus, poussant vers un autre horizon
La langue, avec la rime entraînant la raison,

Lancer au pas de charge, en batailles rangées,
Sur Laharpe éperdu, toutes ces insurgées.
Nous avons au vieux style attaché ce brûlot :
Liberté ! Nous avons, dans le même complot,
Mis l'esprit, pauvre diable, et le mot, pauvre hère ;
Nous avons déchiré le capuchon, la haire,
Le froc, dont on couvrait l'Idée aux yeux divins.
Tous on fait rage en foule. Orateurs, écrivains,
Poètes, nous avons, du doigt avançant l'heure,
Dit à la rhétorique : - Allons, fille majeure,
Lève les yeux ! - et j'ai, chantant, luttant, bravant,
Tordu plus d'une grille au parloir du couvent ;
J'ai, torche en main, ouvert les deux battants du drame ;
Pirates, nous avons, à la voile, à la rame,
De la triple unité pris l'aride archipel ;
Sur l'Hélicon tremblant j'ai battu le rappel.
Tout est perdu ! le vers vague sans muselière !
A Racine effaré nous préférons Molière ;
O pédants ! à Ducis nous préférons Rotrou.
Lucrèce Borgia sort brusquement d'un trou,
Et mêle des poisons hideux à vos guimauves ;
Le drame échevelé fait peur à vos fronts chauves ;
C'est horrible ! oui, brigand, jacobin, malandrin,
J'ai disloqué ce grand niais d'alexandrin ;
Les mots de qualité, les syllabes marquises,
Vivaient ensemble au fond de leurs grottes exquises,
Faisaient la bouche en coeur et ne parlant qu'entre eux,
J'ai dit aux mots d'en bas : Manchots, boiteux, goîtreux,
Redressez-vous ! planez, et mêlez-vous, sans règles,
Dans la caverne immense et farouche des aigles !
J'ai déjà confessé ce tas de crimes-là ;
Oui, je suis Papavoine, Érostrate, Attila :
Après ?

Emportez-vous, et criez à la garde,
Brave homme ! tempêtez ! tonnez ! je vous regarde.

Nos progrès prétendus vous semblent outrageants ;
Vous détestez ce siècle où, quand il parle aux gens,
Le vers des trois saluts d'usage se dispense ;
Temps sombre où, sans pudeur, on écrit comme on pense,
Où l'on est philosophe et poète crûment,
Où de ton vin sincère, adorable, écumant,
O sévère idéal, tous les songeurs sont ivres.
Vous couvrez d'abat-jour, quand vous ouvrez nos livres,
Vos yeux, par la clarté du mot propre brûlés ;
Vous exécrez nos vers francs et vrais, vous hurlez
De fureur en voyant nos strophes toutes nues.
Mais où donc est le temps des nymphes ingénues,
Qui couraient dans les bois, et dont la nudité
Dansait dans la lueur des vagues soirs d'été ?
Sur l'aube nue et blanche, entr'ouvrant sa fenêtre,
Faut-il plisser la brume honnête et *****, et mettre
Une feuille de vigne à l'astre dans l'azur ?
Le flot, conque d'amour, est-il d'un goût peu sûr ?
Ô Virgile, Pindare, Orphée ! est-ce qu'on gaze,
Comme une obscénité, les ailes de Pégase,
Qui semble, les ouvrant au haut du mont béni,
L'immense papillon du baiser infini ?
Est-ce que le soleil splendide est un cynique ?
La fleur a-t-elle tort d'écarter sa tunique ?
Calliope, planant derrière un pan des cieux,
Fait donc mal de montrer à Dante soucieux
Ses seins éblouissants à travers les étoiles ?
Vous êtes un ancien d'hier. Libre et sans voiles,
Le grand Olympe nu vous ferait dire : Fi !
Vous mettez une jupe au Cupidon bouffi ;
Au clinquant, aux neuf soeurs en atours, au Parnasse
De Titon du Tillet, votre goût est tenace ;
Apollon vous ferait l'effet d'un Mohican ;
Vous prendriez Vénus pour une sauvagesse.

L'âge - c'est là souvent toute notre sagesse -

A beau vous bougonner tout bas : « Vous avez tort,
- Vous vous ferez tousser si vous criez si fort ;
- Pour quelques nouveautés sauvages et fortuites,
- Monsieur, ne troublez pas la paix de vos pituites.
- Ces gens-ci vont leur train ; qu'est-ce que ça vous fait ?
- Ils ne trouvent que cendre au feu qui vous chauffait.
- Pourquoi déclarez-vous la guerre à leur tapage ?
- Ce siècle est libéral comme vous fûtes page.
- Fermez bien vos volets, tirez bien vos rideaux,
- Soufflez votre chandelle, et tournez-lui le dos !
- Qu'est l'âme du vrai sage ? Une sourde-muette.
- Que vous importe, à vous, que tel ou tel poète,
- Comme l'oiseau des cieux, veuille avoir sa chanson ;
- Et que tel garnement du Pinde, nourrisson
- Des Muses, au milieu d'un bruit de corybante,
- Marmot sombre, ait mordu leur gorge un peu tombante ? »

Vous n'en tenez nul compte, et vous n'écoutez rien.
Voltaire, en vain, grand homme et peu voltairien,
Vous murmure à l'oreille : « Ami, tu nous assommes ! »
- Vous écumez ! - partant de ceci : que nous, hommes
De ce temps d'anarchie et d'enfer, nous donnons
L'assaut au grand Louis juché sur vingt grands noms ;
Vous dites qu'après tout nous perdons notre peine,
Que haute est l'escalade et courte notre haleine ;
Que c'est dit, que jamais nous ne réussirons ;
Que Batteux nous regarde avec ses gros yeux ronds,
Que Tancrède est de bronze et qu'Hamlet est de sable.
Vous déclarez Boileau perruque indéfrisable ;
Et, coiffé de lauriers, d'un coup d'oeil de travers,
Vous indiquez le tas d'ordures de nos vers,
Fumier où la laideur de ce siècle se guinde
Au pauvre vieux bon goût, ce balayeur du Pinde ;
Et même, allant plus ****, vaillant, vous nous criez :
« Je vais vous balayer moi-même ! »

Balayez.

i might speak a "native" tongue...
but i'm reduced to
being a mere tourist
back "home":
   of a home, no home...
via the props and gains

and sparrow hearts of youth...
i... foundation:
scythe plough sly,
stealth, slow,
            narrowing pupils:
how did they manage
to breed lizards with
             furry ***** of cute
and cuddle in the Egyptian
bonsai variety...

seems...
inhumane to keep
a bird in a cage,
or a woman in a man's

or his ******* envy,
or...
best kept in a pocket
for a Mammon's
    chips of betting:
fate against fate...
scared about a concept

rock the boat

MITHRÆO TEGVNT FVLGENTEM TENEBRÆ HOSTES TEMPLVM.
A composition of mine in Classical Latin touching my own beyond-modern, or else beyond the Cogito OVER-CROSS and FEUDOVERMAN new notions. TEMPLVM is “temple”, in both the Greek, or Roman or Carthaginian (or ancient, in general) and Steel-Medieval acceptation, as now related chiefly to the latter. A SUPREME and OVERWHELMING, New Superomistic Shrine is thus set forth, flashing with primordial force into an Eternal Night (MITHRÆO TEGVNT FVLGENTEM TENEBRÆ HOSTES TEMPLVM), and utterly dabbled in Battle-Gore (PRIMO SIGILLO TEVCRVS NOMINE CRVORIS). IΕΡΩ ("through the Temple") is Ancient Greek for this very word as well, as thus employed in the instrumental dative (TO IΕΡON being its neuter singular nominative). Told in the first person.
Le poète ne se reconnaît
Ni dieu ni maître ni loi
Seul lui importe l'abandon aux sirènes des muses
La seule Justice qui vaille à ses oreilles.
Pour ne pas paraphraser Césaire
Et avant lui Perse
Et bien d'autres encore laminaires
Il y a autant de muses que de volcans
Certaines meurent  de petite mort
D'autres demeurent de mort certaine à petit feu consommé
Remplacez volcans par muses
Accordez  les adjectifs et les pronoms
Ce qui vaut pour les volcans
Vaut pour les muses aux dorsales Bossales comme abyssales.
Dixit Césaire :

" Il y a des volcans qui se meurent

il y a des volcans qui demeurent

il y a des volcans qui ne sont là que pour le vent

il y a des volcans fous

il y a des volcans ivres à la dérive

il y a des volcans qui vivent en meutes et patrouillent

il y a des volcans dont la gueule émerge de temps en temps

véritables chiens de la mer

il y a des volcans qui se voilent la face

toujours dans les nuages

il y a des volcans vautrés comme des rhinocéros fatigués

dont on peut palper la poche galactique

il y a des volcans pieux qui élèvent des monuments

à la gloire des peuples disparus

il y a des volcans vigilants

des volcans qui aboient

montant la garde au seuil du Kraal des peuples endormis

il y a des volcans fantasques qui apparaissent

et disparaissent

(ce sont jeux lémuriens)

il ne faut pas oublier ceux qui ne sont pas les moindres

les volcans qu’aucune dorsale n’a jamais repérés

et dont de nuit les rancunes se construisent

il y a des volcans dont l’embouchure est à la mesure

exacte de l’antique déchirure."

« Dorsale bossale » in Moi, laminaire..
On dit communément
"La plus belle fille du monde
Ne peut donner que ce qu'elle a"
Dixit Sébastien-Roch Nicolas de Chamfort. Et il poursuit :
"Ce qui est très faux : elle donne précisément ce qu'on croit recevoir puisqu'en ce genre c'est l'imagination qui fait le prix de ce qu'on reçoit"
Voilà ce que tu me fredonnes en boucles
Pour me faire comprendre que tu es ma muse
Et tu me chuchotes que tu es généreuse
Et ce généreuse-la génère en moi des génies et des elfes et des étoiles
Géantes
Tu me donnes des ailes et je me gonfle et m'élève et je me fais Musc.
La plus belle Muse du Monde ne peut donner que ce qu'elle a.

Ce que tu possèdes, Muse, c'est ce venin de ton ombre qui m'empoisonne
Et moi Musc, je t'apporte en dot son antidote dont je foisonne.
Quand je pense à l'extrême je plonge mes yeux dans l'extrême horizon de mes propres extrémités inférieures comme supérieures et j'essaie de matérialiser par des bouées les champs sémantiques des extrêmes. L'orient extrême, l'occident extrême, l'extrême couchant alias extrême ponant et l'extrême levant.

Me voici donc bien installé sur l'estran, cowboy anachronique en selle sur une vague appelée Jolly Jumper, la moitié de mes extrémités enfoncée sous mon poids dans le sable, entouré de trous de crabes et de pélicans plongeurs qui me dévisagent au **** sur cette Grande Anse du Far West Indies. Je ne vois guère que leurs traces fugitives, pattes et becs qui ricanent dans le sable mouillé . Je suis aux frontières de l' extrême. Les extrêmes sont à la mode. LES EXTRÊMES SONT TENDANCE. Le mot extrême qui s'utilisait jadis en antéposition dans ses constructions lexicales comme dans les formulations comme l'Extrême-Orient, extrême-droite, extrême-gauche, extrême-onction, s'utilise désormais en postposition comme pour en adoucir les traits, nous la retirer de l'horizon lointain, du Far West pour la rendre plus visible dans le centre extrême ou l'extrême insoumission que d'aucuns appellent de leurs vœux comme dernière extrémité pour sauver les démocraties de l'extrême-onction programmée.

Mais revenons aux sens premiers d'extrême. A travers deux proverbes :

"Aux maux extrêmes les extrêmes remèdes."

"Les extrêmes se touchent."

Extrême, dixit le Cntrl, tiré du latin extremus, superlatif de exter, en dehors. Signifiant le plus à l'extérieur, le dernier, le pire, l'extrême.

Oh je sais, tout n'est affaire que de proportion puisque, nous disent par ailleurs les arithméticiens, le produit des extrêmes est égal aux produits des moyens.

Les frontières de l'extrême reculent sans arrêt. Il y a une surenchère permanente. Plus le sport est extrême plus il attire la jeunesse, Plus le discours est extrême plus il attire le chaland.

Je suis né moi-même dans l'extrême, puisque né à EXTRA-MUROS. EN DEHORS DES MURS, EN DEHORS DU BOURG. DEWO. L'extrême extase de l'en-dehors...

               We Can’t Take Our Books with Us When We Die


               Ecce nova facio omnia. Et dixit mihi: Scribe
               quia hic verba fidelissima sunt, et vera.

                                       -Apocalypsis XXI:V


We can’t take our books with us when we die
That reality shouldn’t bother me, but it does:
The copy of The Brothers Karamazov
I carried in Viet-Nam – off to a re-sale shop?

But God is the Word from Whom all blessings flow
And since He is the Word, all our books are His
How foolish of us if we fear that God
Has made no proper arrangements for them

Books are eternal:

Great blessings in paper and ink and page and leaf
For learning and leisure and wisdom and belief

— The End —
