The prophet murdered by his Israeli audience, speaking of the Man of Sorrows: the great Messianic prophecy. Where did normative behavioral statute end and the dirge of the downtrodden Christ begin?
He would not stop those who wanted to burn; he would not succor nor hinder those in the throes. A sort of secret burn, a sort of deeply personal hurt: he would not heal them? And yet he was sent to empty those types of prisonhouses of their dogends, to loose the chord around the bundle, to reveal a more profound connection between God and man.
How then, the magic that elapses?
If its so literal, so dogmatic, then–
How did his heretical sentencing and execution do anything for any of you?
all shining flax and purple blotted bamboo fronds…..
it was a no-touch cure, the great chemtrail of truth and contemplation that blanketed, not a personal God finger on your heart, but a very something of the air about it
something as irrevocable as free air to breath
I tell them time and again in my daily life. If people knew the source of my happiness, there would be a new tax aimed at monetizing it; to wit, if men knew, they would try to ruin it, being the smoking flax, the bruised reed, in their respective hatred(flax) and sadness(reed)--but to guard it is too brash, does not edify–in the world of darkness we must be f*cking light bulbs, my friends, and never reflect back the broken world, but show the world, through our fractalized looking apparatus, all it could be.
To show it beauty, Dorian. Beauty.
Show it its own beauty, that what it denies, ignores, guards or doubts, that its own best is no myth.
Isaiah 42 KJV
2 He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.
3 A bruised reed shall he not break, and the smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth.
4 He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth: and the isles shall wait for his law.
5 Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:
6 I the LORD have called thee in righteousness, and will hold thine hand, and will keep thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, for a light of the Gentiles;
Ephesians 1 NIV
having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints……
and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power in us who believe, according to the working of his great might
Isaiah 42
7 To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, and them that sit in darkness out of the prison house.
20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, 21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:
22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, 23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.
8 I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.
As for me, I am fuscia, violet, preserved in a looking glass high atop a mystical mountain--and what elsewise have we seen? Why, its social string theory, my babies, string theory, unified fields, and the only uncertainty is the quickness and measure of the most certain--and our most common guilt is not the we crawl on our bellies, but the very uncertainty of the certain.
--the contempt for contemplation is not a way to indulge; simplicity is something, as the clean edge brings less ill effect---
--objects of faith, attributions personifications contemplations are what we think we know, or can only true in drawing aim on the most noble of ambitions:
the love of God, the love of people.
