Sections 8-10 – “By Blue Ontario’s Shore” by Walt Whitman
A message from the past: We interrupt the regularly scheduled eternity for a message from Walt Whitman, the poet of America, who considered his book to be America itself. Hundreds of millions of citizens and immigrants all together the leaves of this grass, the growth and maintenance of these States, this vast lawn of a […]

“Over The Carnage Rose Prophetic A Voice” by Walt Whitman
We’re in a constitutional crisis and I need Walt Whitman right now. In this episode I take a break from reading “By Blue Ontario’s Shore” to become possessed by a barking, chanting, deliberate spirit of Whitman, who arrives as a voice from the past to tell us how from over the carnage will rise prophetic […]

God Is Pure Openness, the Essence of Unlimited Infinities
In truth, I started this blog because there is a coherent value system I wanted to elaborate which I termed anarcho-spiritual, a silly name, honestly, but one I live with now because at one time I thought it sounded kind of cool and made it a .com on WordPress.

Psalms 1 – 6
Here I start a new track and begin scripture readings, beginning with the Book of Psalms, Psalms 1 through 6. The edition I use is the New American Bible Revised Edition, which is a reliable, middle of the road English translation, which also has some good footnotes. I quote from the copy which I’ve used […]

Loosely Connected Yous Part 3
Well I’m back to my own readings, after being so rudely interrupted by the likes of R.M. Rilke, and his elegies so artfully rendered by Stephen Mitchell.
