Whatever I say you will laugh Whenever I laugh you will laugh with me The jesters used to be bards The bards used to tell stories to make welts appear on the face of the King Virulent irony In the ancient land a blemished king could not rule, such was the power of sarcasm The Druids forbid their members to write anything down How will we test their orthodoxy?

What are we going to do with the old ones? And putting us into unnecessary stress trying to design new wardrobes for her. Her nakedness are her clothes. What are we talking about here? Not sure, but its sure interesting to see where this all leads us to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 There are too many people who want to put " close " on the Goddess. Like shutting the box of truth so that it can be owned and traded Putting an end to miracles so that they can be catalogued and interpreted It's dangerous for the Goddess to wander around naked. namaste, pr , " NMadasamy " <nmadasamy wrote: > > " mikal haley " chipsterthehipster@> wrote: > > maybe you're not a miserable failure. > is there time? or is time a big lie? > i know it's " now " other places > even though i see no sun as i type this. > maybe you're not a failure at all. > it will be now when you read it > even though i will be done typing it. > -- a devotee of Tao > > > " NMadasamy " <nmadasamy@> wrote: > > Ah!

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 the goddess is all powerful. if she wanted to go around naked i would feel sorry for those who would try to deny her her right to do so they would be the ones in danger.
