In love, no certainty is ultimate... That elementary thing - the feeling that you are loved - must be certified again and again, because one doubt, one mistake razes everything to madness and ecstasy.

In imitating the exemplary acts of a god or of a mythic hero, or simply by recounting their adventures, the man of an archaic society detaches himself from profane time and magically re-enters the Great Time, the sacred time.

Spectacular!! What exactly do I mean by that? You name it. As long as it got some bit of sparkle, that's all what they want. They don't care anymore about the small stuff; they want to be among the stars because is shiny and is way up high. Why? When in fact their soul is faded and dark?

The history of religions reaches down and makes contact with that which is essentially human: the relation of man to the sacred. The history of religions can play an extremely important role in the crisis we are living through. The crises of modern man are to a large extent religious ones, insofar as they are an awakening of his awareness to an absence of meaning.

It is above all the valorizing of the present that requires emphasizing. The simple fact of existing, of living in time, can comprise a religious dimension. This dimension is not always obvious, since sacrality is in a sense camouflaged in the immediate, in the "natural" and the everyday. The joy of life discovered by the Greeks is not a profane type of enjoyment: it reveals the bliss of existing, of sharing — even fugitively — in the spontaneity of life and the majesty of the world. Like so many others before and after them, the Greeks learned that the surest way to escape from time is to exploit the wealth, at first sight impossible to suspect, of the lived instant.

Perished Love

She wanted love, but all she got was hate; some say it was bad luck, others say it's fate.
An angel faced girl cried in despair, being alone and fragile joined her tears; she wanted to get out and leave behind the lonely memories.
Drops of hope suddenly appear, when a young man seemed to be getting near.
But it was a fluke; the man just has he come, he vanished. His name was Luke.
The story did not end, she continue to love him, even though he just pretend.
After cursing Cupid and the Gods, suicide began to raise the odds.
Pills were taken, blades were sharpened, nothing worked; at a certain point she almost died, but only choked.
Who could understand, why did Sandra tried to cut her hand?
Only God or Luke could take the pain away; but they were both missing, because the suffering was here to stay.
An innocent life changed their pace, unguilty, unwanted; He rushed them in to a young family and in to grace.
Luke was now the father of a little boy; but he had not job, no future, how could he buy his kid a toy?
Sandra was now the mother of a little boy; she didn't love him, she just made him and named him Roy.
The tables now were turned around; Sandra has changed, took drugs and let them down.
Her love for him, for Roy has vanished,
And that's the story of a love that's perished.

The LoRuhamah Poems - Her Death Discordant

for Judy Asher, killed at age 21

These meditations/laments are set in
Appalachian mountains and towns of
North American Southern states, circa mid1960's

[The name, LoRuhamah, means 'not loved']

Hosea 1: 6 - 'And she conceived again, and bare a daughter.
And God said unto him, Call her name LoRuhamah' for I will
no more have mercy on the house of Israel, but will utterly take
them away.'

Part One

O rue rue LaRue among the ginkgoes
cloven leaves all fallen whose burnished berries
