Timothy Leary

In this infinite reality there is the struggle between death and rebirth in the physical form. An idea (consciousness is immaterial) is a dream until it is manifested in the prime material plane of existence. In order for consciousness to exist one must physically manifest in known the universe (meaning quantifiable) Life is a condition of death and we're constantly in a process of change/rebirth in the moment of now. We begin in this reality in a condition of weakness physically and are dependent on the kindness of our environment, then we grow and become strong and attempt to manipulate the environment till a point where the body begins to fail and physical pain begins to assail the body suffering that actually began at birth. Finally we return to condition of weakness were we prepare for death the final journey. During this struggle in the infinite universe we suffer, to know this is to be somewhat conscious or be on the path of enlightenment that never ends. Anyway, we are on a ball floating around in space with limited space, a village in space. Sometimes the journey is too painful to continue the struggle, thus we have a natural expiration date. The universe is at once infinite and finite, the universe which could be caught in a moment of flux like the blink of an eye but it so big it takes an infinite amount of time to collapse, the universe you represent will degrade into nothingness. The infinite large abides by the rules of the infinitely small it collapses and dies but on a time scale we can't comprehend at this moment in time. To make a long story short, I followed Timothy Leary and he forgot to mention get money before you drop out.

Mandela

Nelson Mandela

a prophet calling in the wilderness.
Proclaiming to the world.
give us the rights of men!
I am you and you are me
IMAGINE
US and THEM
he called to the people of Johannesburg,
living in freedom.
Hard hearts turned to stone
a few threw stones at a glass house
breaking all the windows and doors
causing the prophet
to rock n roll like humpty dumpty on wall
falling from grace
to be nothing but a man
a villain spending 27 years in the belly of the beast
was he a disgrace
NO!
general in the global struggle for the third world to be free
from the greed of neo-colonialism
looking for power, wealth and fame.
a gentle man
wisdom of a saint,
he endured the weight of an evil state
that put a boot to his neck
living in fate he could not escape,
till blind eyes were open
they realized he did no wrong,
a humble man wanting a nations freedom,
cast off the bonds stupidity
and live in equality
like the phoenix
he was reborn
to take South Africa to greater heights
concerning the rights of humans.
Today, he is gone
but never to be forgotten.
Thank You Mandela
for showing us how to be free.
