For the past few weeks I have been immersed in the paranormal. I’ve been exhaustively (and exhaustingly) researching all the end of the world prophecies that focus on December 12th , 2012 for a cover story for LA CityBeat. I’ll post that this coming Thursday, and maybe some thoughts on the new regime at the paper. In the meantime, I've attended occult events that have drawn packed houses, I’ve toured brimming quadrants of the internet. I cannot pretend that I’m anything but totally convinced (and Victor Renquist would agree) that a new interest in the metaphysical and the unknowable is on the rise. And I have to say I find that totally understand when the last eight years of supposed normality and reality have come courtesy of the Bush administration and random fascist madmen & madwomen. Then, with my head stuffed full of the supposed truths that are out there, I had one of those almost-falling-asleep experiences when lines of a poem flowed through my head. Elvis Costello has reported similar experiences with song lyrics and he keeps a pad beside the bed. I just turn over and hope I remember in the morning. This is what remained in the morning light. It will probably grow, since I have this nagging feeling that the perception of time underpins the whole phenomenon. (pic from Valerie)
THE PARANORMAL CONFORMS…
THE PARANORMAL CONFORMS
TO ITS OWN UNNATURAL LAWS
AND FUELED BY THE POWER SOURCES
THE ORGONES OF WILHELM REICH
THE ALTERNATING ELECTRONS
OF NIKOLA TESLA
TO PRECIPITATE THE OCCURRENCES
OF CHARLES FORTE
AND YET BENEATH IT ALL
ROLLS THE MAJESTIC RIVER
OF THE TIME STREAM
THAT BEARS ALL BEFORE
EQUATIONS
OF TIME AND SPACE AND ENERGY
IN MEASURELESS CURVATURE
AS THE RIVER BENDS
FROGS FALL
DISPLACED FROM A ONCE AND FUTURE POND
SWIRLED THROUGH A TEMPORAL EDDY
TO SLIP INTO AN ALIEN DRAIN
THAT HUMANITY MAY YET EXPERIENCE
(REMEMBER, MY WILD LOVE
FROGS FALL FIRST)
THE OBJECTIVE OF THE PROPHET
IS TO SURF FORWARD ON THE BOW WAVE
OF THE SAME GREAT RIVER
FOR AN OBSERVATION OF WHAT WILL BE
RATHER THAN WHAT IS
SAIL ON, SEER AND SENSEI
THE WATERS OF TIME
ARE THE KEY
The secret word is Passage and the secret numbers are 012

Oh shit. Is Farren going mystic?
I had to research Timewave Zero (it's a 2012 theory) for debunkation recently and I was astonished at the number of tinfoil hats out there right now. A lot of reasons for it, I think, one of them being that critical thinking is neither taught nor appreciated, whereas magical thinking is highly valued. Add that to the whole concept that the "reality based community" is somehow on the wrong track, millenialism...well, you're writing the story. I guess I just have to read it!
"I smell dead people."
Mick, it's 21st December 2012, not the 12th
Check out Daniel Pinchbeck's work and obviously the work of Terence McKenna (for Timewave Zero) and maybe Jose Arguelles, Carl Calleman, & John Major Jenkins - it's not the physical End of the World (worst case scenario) but a transformation & evolution of consciousness (best case scenario).
Place yer bets now....
Dyslexia rools, KO?
Keen to read of a specific character thinking things... anyway, I was hoping to ask an author for some suggested reading.
So... ugh... suggestions please?
