DREAM
(Painting by Maxfield Parrish - 'Morning, Spring')
Sometimes I feel that Life is A Dream.
The priests say that Life is A Dream of The Gods....
Yet, I often think that My Life is My Own Dream.
If I am Dreaming My Own Life, perhaps I Am A God?

SHADES OF LIGHT
Gods are Immortal,

CHAIN OF LIFE
http://www.angelomusco.com/home/ ( artist website )
The Italian photographer, Angelo Musco, evokes the primordial essence of biological survival through his prodigeously meticulous photo shoots of hundreds of naked bodies, linked in chains and configurations that suggest procreation of the species of Man. This is a fitting tribute and summary statement for the Spring Equinox, a time in the life cycle on Earth that invites and entices sexual interchange in nearly all species of life. Enjoy the creation! Enjoy the sensation! Enjoy the myriad forms of Life! However, do not forget that EVERY life form is animated by an eternal flame, the Spiritual Essence that is the true Source and Spark of Life. The Spirit, animating the form IS Life!!

PATRIARCHAL SOCIETY
"SLINKY SERPENTS HISS: SENSUAL SEX SENSATIONS...SAVORY, SUMPTUOUS"
Haiku Poem, by Lawrence R. Spencer
__________________________________________________
It is the usual trait of Men, who inhabit fragile forms of flesh, to blame their addictions and inability to be responsible for their own ignorance and brutality, AND to blame others for the own disabilities. Such is the classic case of the authors of the Bible, and other ancient mythological texts in the Western World. In about 600 BCE while the Jews were captive in Babylonia, the few scribes that could actually write, compiled and committed to paper their own pathetic history. Much of what they wrote was borrowed or stolen from earlier, ancient civilizations who inhabited Earth for thousands of years before these band of pitiful slaves and peasant. During the entire history of human beings on Earth, nearly every society, with very few exceptions, we patriarchal. Simply stated, men ruled and ran societies solely and ONLY because the had larger muscles, less courage and much less empathy, compassion and ability to love than the female half of the population. Females, by virtue of smaller muscles, and less inclination to beat and murder their fellows, have been literally forced into slavery during the entire history of Earth.
So, it is very easy to understand that one of the FEW WEAPONS that Womankind possess to sustain their own survival, to fight back and protect themselves in a race of brutal idiots, it to develop feminine "charms": beauty of face, of form. Wisdom. Practical survival sensibilities. And sexual wiles that men cannot not resist. These abilities also have to benefit of sustaining the population. Child birth, the most painful ordeal that ANY human body can possibly endure, cannot be done by men. Men are too cowardly and weak for the truly agonizing labor of pushing a bowling ball through a hole the size of a small apple!
However, the cowardice and stupidity of Men continues without inspection and remains unchallenged by the men who are truly the Source of Evil on Planet Earth -- Patriarchal Priests and Mindless Sheep. Women are villainized by weaklings and cowards -- PRIESTS , to be specific -- as "Evil"..... In the mythology of the "Garden of Eden', it is the female EVE who is portrayed to be "evil" by the Priests who made up these farcical stories. The same cowards -- most of whom have never had sex with anyone except each other, or small boys, or goats -- cram their Patriarchal Propaganda down the throats of the mindless sheep who read them, century after century! After all the thousands and thousands of years of this brutal stupidity, one could easily argue that Females would be justified in murdering every Priest in their sleep, and any other "man" who continues to brutalize women, while blaming these innocents for their own addiction to sexual sensation! Or, in the case of Priests, their own inability to understand the meaning of Love, Compassion, Aesthetic, Kindness and Nurturing.... the basic characteristics of Women.

LIKE A PRAYER
"Life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home
When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
I hear your voice, it's like an angel sighing
I have no choice, I hear your voice
Feels like flying
I close my eyes, Oh God I think I'm falling
Out of the sky, I close my eyes
Heaven help me
When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
Like a child you whisper softly to me
You're in control just like a child
Now I'm dancing
It's like a dream, no end and no beginning
You're here with me, it's like a dream
Let the choir sing
When you call my name it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I'll take you there
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice your voice can take me there
Just like a prayer, I'll take you there
It's like a dream to me!"

GREATEST BLESSING
( Painting: "Death of A Cyborg" )
