East of Eden you find a harp, and a book of poetry. play it. read it. enjoy it. but don't be taken in. it is not everything. if anything, it is more akin to nothing. the sages will tell you to live it. it is not much different from money, which they forswear. listen. they both get spent, and leave you nothing. it is the suspension of belief, not disbelief. it is all vanity. it is not the way to go, this going away. where the treasure is, the seraphs guard. |

Awe, another sharp tongued write! I am most impressed with your ability to speak candidly and get it all out in the open.
A harp and a book ~ are you sure you want to use the word 'poetry?
I love it being 'akin to nothing' !
it is the suspension of belief,
not disbelief.
I know alot of people who would agree with that! I like the way you said it.
it is not the way to go,
this going away another great wording!
Im glad I read this tonight. After having just read another of yours, I can feel the pattern and the urgency in your message.
Shine on, poet!
Ellen
