ONE BIG FANTASMAGORIA
“a walking contradiction
partly truth and partly fiction
taking every wrong direction
on his lonely way back home
and there’s a lot of wrong directions
on that lonesome way back home”
– Kris Kristofferson, for Harry Dean Stanton in: “Harry Dean Stanton: Partly Fiction”
The interview,
Everything
just happens
nobody’s in charge
it’s one big, fantasmagoria
Everything
is unfolding
perfectly nobody’s in charge
I’m not in charge, I was
Everybody and Nobody’s
in charge of their lives
we think we are
but we’re not
it’s all, predestined, all
written, it’s all written
already
I’ll just go along
with the trip
Be still
and know
breathe and smile
every step
peace is every step
it’s all Eastern stuff and
effortless
Beyond consciousness
“Where were you before you were born”?
no
reincarnation
is another ego trip
a Buddhist saying
to think
you’re an
individual
with an individual, soul
with an individual, identity
is not only an illusion
it’s insane
no answer to it
it all
just happens
