Rantings & Raving ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ IchIbAnmE - 01-15-03 The death of every spirit is to be recognized, their sacrafice in life sanctified, by rituals and honours of ages long ago. Now they stand replaced, systematic slaughters in their place. Respect for nature, respect for lives, respect for the energies, the kosmos lays down but these demands. Circumventing cycles of our natural habitats, lost beauties in nature reflecting lost health in the mother earth we attack. The sun no longer warms us or bestows its energy, burning and eradicating through radiation. The seas rise in revolt, each source of our energy, the spirits of life wither, choked in the madness. This is cosmic retribution of which the ancients spoke. When cannot escape the karma of negative motives and actions, the disruption of our energies and destruction of our species. Each uncontrolled violence is an infestation, left in its path a darkness void of darkness' beauty. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ nIbAnmE It has been said by some that the will to freedom is innate in man, just as your own will to power. The human mind rejects confinement, like a scared animal trapped in a corner it lashes out. Fiercly, ferociously, violently, by an means neccassary it seeks escape. YET the very ones who impose the circumstances that breed such violent behavior, condemn and punish that violence, thus further aggravating the original circumstnace and potentiating the resultant violence, and driving us ever close to that proverbial EDGE.
