The Calm

This is a personal poem about my own experience with being overwhelmed and accepting defeat.
Clarity fades away... Slowly sinking into a milky fog of nothing, Drifting through space but not time. I gasp for air then absorb the silence. Sweet velvety gloom breaks my will. Outside is peace. Inside a battle subsides...

Better late than never 2

I was inspired by the thought of changing the cliche: "Better late than never." to a better adage.


 

Better late than never

Better late than never

is never better

than never late is better

 

May you rest never

until you are late never

so your life will be better

forever.

Crowley Bearing a Gift

A humble tribute to Thelama and Crowleyanity in very few words. One partial paragraph in Crowley's work The Book of Thoth inspired me.

so as to LIVE

Do you have to survive? Read it and try to find a source of inspiration...so as to LIVE!


           LIFE Prostration in your heart, lacklustre eyes, lost dreams and no chance to rise.

           LIFE Your eyes stream a salt rain, watering your stony way in vain.

           LIFE A lot of words empty...
