Day Dreamer

Absconding from pale visions of Lethe
to haul this flashing dart to daylight
What wants the day dreamer for vanishing
incorporeality of illusion? While here
unspools fantastic, sleep is but a
different dreamscape. Dark cut deep.
A chasm within into which i breathe
Silence brimming over- cipher out,
cipher in, complete.

The Italian Art

What cunning of witches,
Philtres of uncommon providence,
Subject to magnification iterations,
Surgery of Spirit in Matter,
Bend. With the Remover. Remove.

Venus Solitary

Venus–The Unaspected Venus was put on earth to learn about love. It is a weighty lesson. However, as with all Unaspected Planets, the native won’t stop until he is done. Either that, or he gives up completely. There seems to be an either/or dichotomy with Unaspected Planets. At any rate, the Unaspected Venus must learn about love through the doing. Love is the hardest part of being a human. It is the easiest, as well, as it is so natural. The Unaspected Venus must learn the lesson of how to use love. Love is a cruel taskmaster in that you do not tell him what to do. If you do, he will bite. You must yield. Yield to yourself. Yield to life. Yield to others. In yielding, you will be pricked . You will have pain the force of fire. However, within the pain, you will cast aside dross. You will find that under the dross is a purity of spirit, as in a child. You have had to make a very long trip to get back from where you started.

Liber 49

36. But let her think on this: my way is not in the solemn ways, or in the reasoned ways, but in the wild free way of the eagle, and the devious way of the serpent, and the oblique way of the factor unknown and unnumbered.

Spelunking

Absence was there, always, waiting to hear my tale, and so it is to Absence that I shall tell it. He's a good listener, politely fascinated as he is with the flutter of existence. I feel him, sardonic, gentle, deep. Absence is deep so there's nothing he doesn't understand and he's an expert in the art of subsurface explorations.
