How smug and self-satisfied you are. A provocateur imitating a teacher.

Are they mere words? Such a limited view. Words, sounds, printed or not

have energy. They are not mere words. Words can be a weapon. The pen is

mightier that the sword someone said. They can also be a tool of the ego, your

ego.

Inquire into that!

Do you say what you mean and mean what you say? Or do you imitate truth with

a facade? Or pretend a facade to imitate truth? Are you catching a fish, then

use worms and not words. Words can be dangerous. You must know that. " Mere

words, " such foolishness. There is no such thing as " mere words. "

Your pride is hanging out Pete, as if you left your trousers open. Zip it

up, no one is interested in your games.

You seem to think there is something to be fixed, something to understand

that is above and beyond the everyday. As I wrote before. Meher Baba said,

nirvana is samsara and samsara is nirvana. Don't diminish the significance of

the

everyday reality, because that is where the IS, IS.

P: Excellent! That's the reaction I was trying to provoke.

Those reactions are the untied shoelaces. See them

Now? Why did you react so, to mere words? inquire

into that. You are very attached to your image as an

artist, are you not? You view attacks on your art as

attacks on you. There is, definitely, a very tender persona

there, who can easily be hurt. Very muddy shoelaces, Larry,

you need to walk barefooted.

Pete: A very superficial view of poetry, you have, Larry. Poetry is

a way to see

the world, not away to string words in a pleasing manner.

P; I'm your friend, Larry. Why would I bother otherwise?

If I thought you were worthless, hopeless, I wouldn't

say a word. So yeah, I like you, I think you show great

potential. Stick around, it only hurts a little at the beginning.

P; There you go again, Larry! Screw your art! Is your

mind that needs cleansing.
