Tonight I shake my fist at the Gods
Advertisements [?]
Another good soul like Monkeyman has to depart and leave us more alone. Meanwhile vermin rules this world and spreads its filth unabated.

I try not to despair for those that have transitioned to The All/The Source/God/Heaven, whatever, such is the way the wheel turns, but tonight I'm finally angry. I am a spiritual man but hardly a religious one anymore. I believe it is folly to question or even attempt to understand forces which are beyond our level of evolution. God may indeed be an astronaut; Or he may simply not be anything at all. Only Monkeyman knows for sure right now and I hope there is some kind of peace waiting for him if even only the peace of nonexistence.

But as a spiritual man I confess now an anger brewing. It is an anger at my own anger because I know better than such things. In light of the despair this world has fallen into however I, MAN, must ask to the heavens WHY?
If there is, as I believe, a positive and negative balance to the universe then when is positive/good going to finally catch up? Evil has been kicking ass for millenium now. I don't believe in some climactic biblical story about the end times and the final battle between good and evil, but if it is set up to go down that way for fucks sake let's get on with it because now I want in on this fight.

I'm a pacifist that wants blood. I ride a razor of emotion. I want the unjust who have defiled this great experiment called mankind and made it fail brought to the same fate as any of the good and innocent lost to the destruction of their machinations.

I realize Monkeyman didn't fall in some grand "war" but really in my mind he did. He played his role and the fates will have who they come for. It's just my opinion that there are many much more deserving to part this plane before they, or people that love them, think they should.

We wait for the justice ye Gods.

Reincarnation I believe in so I figure to have a dog in the last fight whenever or wherever it comes. I used to look forward to living new lives. Now I dread coming back to this world because it all goes downhill from here and there aren't enough of us left with strength enough to stop it anymore I fear.

Monkeyman is at peace but he didn't live to see peace. Didn't live to see the fight won. Didn't make it over the mountain with us; And who among us actually will. He should have been allowed to see hope renewed in this lifetime, and that is the saddest part of his passing.

Meanwhile vermin rule and prey and kill. The weak, the helpless, the poor.

How can we take it anymore?

I'm ashamed I was never able to meet Dale although I knew him very casually on here he seemed to always respond to my posts. Us crazy spiritual folks can spot people we've probably been through a few eons with too sometimes and I think MM looked familiar. Listening to CSNY's "Deja Vu" as I write this coincidently enough.

I guess the point of this rambling essay that I'm writing through tears for a friend I never met but am pretty sure I would have enjoyed "havin a beer with" (sorry couldn't resist MM) is that we need to close this circle even tighter people. We are all we have left in some cases I suspect. Anyone on here who is within 100 miles of each other for Gods sakes go meet each other. Leave the house, have lunch, fall in love, testify together. The higher powers are clearly taking a powder on this planet so it's all up to us. Love you all
S
