men die everyday for the lack of it, it is vast and elegant

Today we read from Diane Di Prima's Revolutionary Letters.
We remember the stakes really are ourselves. We remember that we are endless, always one, never separate.
Get going, join hands, see to business.

refuse to shut your ears
refuse silence when you can still sing refuse discourse in lieu of embracement
come to no end that is not a Beginning

Sweetheart
when you break thru
you’ll find
a poet here
not quite what one would choose.
I won’t promise
you’ll never go hungry
or that you won’t be sad
on this gutted
breaking
globe
but I can show you
baby
enough to love
to break your heart
forever

And as you learn the magic, learn to believe it
Don't be "surprised" when it works, you undercut your power.

You cannot write a single line w/out a cosmology
a cosmogony
laid out, before all eyes
there is no part of yourself you can separate out
saying, this is memory, this is sensation
this is the work I care about, this is how I
make a living
