  The Kiss Salt and sweet and coats inside of mouth.       Fountain sounds slower, the light seems thicker The flower descends to kiss cheek       Now the colour itself flows and light flickers

The Flower Flowers, impossibly Georgia O'Keefe,       Involuted and drooping and seem to drip Sweet secrets that slide thickly down dark green leafs       Put your lips to a leaf and take a sip

    All that which falls within the purview of the five senses is known as the empirical. As these senses -- of smell, taste, sight, touch and hearing -- are the preceptors of pleasure and pain, it goes without saying that advancements in empirical science have been resulting in ever-increasing means to heighten both pleasure, as well as pain. If we devote just a few moments to look at our own such sensations from a third party point of view, we would conclude that these sensations are in fact being referred to own ego, the sense of "i" ness. If this were not so, then the same objects would have produced the same sensation in everybody and in equal degree. Thus, the ego is the traceable birthplace of all desires and also reason for the relentless but futile struggle to satisfy them. The question is: who in reality is struggling in such a futile manner? If this is my body and this is my mind, then who is the real I? The wise call it Atman. It is always the ...

Green and White Not going up but falling from a high       Roof that has lights covered in green leaves Spilling dappled patches of viridian and white       Walk into a world of green and white weaves

The Empty Mall Choose the wrong door, there's a dusty shoe store       Come out to an empty mall, deserted Fountains seem larger, air is like quartz, flawed       Light like liquid spills on plants inverted

South through the Lake District, the landscape scattered with strange angular Red structures. The dull green grass on the soft hills was covered with these bright red things, collapsed geodetic spires topped with shattered domes. They looked like failed schematics for crimson mushrooms. Somewhere out on the endless prairies of North America was the successful version. A skyhook fifty miles square at the base, topped off at 23,000 high by something that looked suspiciously like a giant starship. No-one went anywhere near the thing. Red seemed to have plans there and they might involve us. We sat drinking whisky in our compartment watching the view. Somewhere around Lancaster Giles and I lit up Cuban cigars ("rolled on the thighs of nubile young puppets," joked Giles) and resumed our argument. "So you think we can't trust the puppets with anything more complex that food preparation and street sweeping?" I looked around the wood panelled ro...
