Let rivers flow
Flow red with hate
Flow red with vengeance
Let rivers flow
Flow red with man
Flow red with child
Let rivers flow
Flow red with blood
Strom red blood
Life blood
Let rivers flow
Flow and empty
Empty into oceans
Red oceans
Red rivers
Red valleys
Red skies
To every birth red
Every child red
For whose sight is red
Breathe red
Eat red
Sleep to red
Awaken to red
Red to dawn
Red to demise
Every beat [...]

“People want only special revolutions,
in externals, in politics, and so on.
But that’s just tinkering. What really

human mind…”

Ailments of the body are an odd thing, not in their occurrence but rather in their affect on us and our responses to them. Terminal illnesses in particular seem to have the power to make or break us. Our willpower, our perspectives, and the importance we place on life can be sourly tested [...]

Phtotagraph by Schellebelle
“We can never judge the lives of others, because each person knows only their own pain and renunciation. It’s one thing to feel that you are on the right path, but it’s another to think that yours is the only path.”

“Life is so generous a giver, but we, judging its gifts by their covering, cast them away as ugly or heavy or hard. Remove the covering, and you will find beneath it a living splendour, woven of love, by wisdom, with power.”

“No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend’s or of thine own [...]

"O wave! Plunge headlong into the dark seas,
And change thyself with many a twist and turn;
Thou wast not born for tile solace of the shore;
Arise, untamed, and find a path for thyself."
