A strange, amazing thing, last night...

After leaving North Dakota, having been strung up & stranded, though not badly & by some measures not at all.. though entirely by my own fucking doing...

Providence offered an Escape..
totally unexpected..

now.. i was up there, lazy, funked & unbusy for.. 2 months, i guess..
i had been in cali (where i *want* to be), looking for work, took a drive up to WA to find some, fucked the interview because of physical defects (hearing & teeth.. yes.. fucking teeth..), then called in an obligation, thinking there was some work in N. Dakota.

Hoidy Fuck..

anyways.. nothing going on.. not a bad place to be, if being someplace is all there is to be, but not a good place to be, if you want to be something more than being.

hence funk.

i couldn't be anything more than just fucking being.

although... there was some stuff to work on... & not just project shit..
basic bedrock shit..

sooo..

i got a call.. unexpected, but bread thrown on water, some time ago...

& "hell *yes* i will take that job!! hell YES!!"

but.. sitting on the shitter up there still came with obligations..

promises between persons with an outhouse & persons with a mansion are *exactly* the same thing.. hopefully that is what defines friendship, above and beyond any bullshit of "business"..

or.. fuck.. just what a promise should be...

anyways...

so, here is the "Soooo..." part...

have you ever been in a situation you thought was almost too fucked up to escape from, then grab at a straw, only to land in a place that was better than what you hoped for, to begin with?

& then.. though i haven't seen this *yet*.. melt in front of your eyes, before you even ever got to really taste it??

i landed yesterday.. got a sweet place about 4000 feet from work..
fuck, i could walk, each day...

saw a beautifull, beautifull sunset...

i can see the bay..

totally, 100% unexpected..

my God.. i hope the job is ok..

please don't let this shit melt down..

there is a marina next door.. there are some nice old boats that i bet are for fucking sale..

but fuck.. if it melts down?

my fucking teeth will melt with it..

existence is badass..

fucking volatile, conscious & not really all that prone to compromising...
but it *may* be fucking mercifull... i dun fucking know..

it probably doesn't give a shit about mercy, but will hell damn ream us over issues of truth.


which is only about the truth you give, while you exist..


anyways..

i tell you this, mother fuckers..

in existence there are two forces;

desire & duty.

coolness, beauty, meaning, salvation, joy, happiness, etc. etc. etc. etc.etc..

mean fucking nothing..

there is one truth, if you have the nuts, blood, balls, love or devotion for it;

there is one truth, & that is 'duty'..

get your finger on that, & you change history, like butterflies' wings or nuclear bombs..

desire & duty...

never, ever, ever choose desire over duty, because duty is the place between itself & desire..

a being is always free to choose..

*what* they choose is where the one of the two begin...

& Jesus, Oh, O Beautifull Daughter of the Norse Winds..
.. oh..

You are the Force that binds their Wings unto Existence..

Deeper than mere Atoms
& less visible than the most Hidden
of
Secrets...

You are the Dreams which cause Flight

& the compassion that It shall Find...

You are lead by the Glorious,
because you know glory,

& like us all,

sacrifice as much as we are able, whether work or hope or time or life or trust or

even

Love

because You

Know not *only* that
*your* freedom lays within the freedom of others,


but...


O...

but...



Their Freedom is more important
than

your Own...


& it is only there we find what our actual power is..

Science Fiction, Fantasy, Beauty, Reality,
truth, imagination, delusion, Mythology..

or what you need to choose...

there is perfection & there is failure..

& the only claim we have is to what is in between.

& so I declare you

As Beautifull as any I have ever been so Graced to have ever known..

& God Damn, I hope I make it to the fucking Jambo....
