The Meaningless Lives of Endless Compromise

By Les Visible A good portion of people live meaningless lives of endless compromise. They cut deals with whatever elements of existence will permit them to acquire whatever shit sandwich they have developed a taste for and… you’d better not refer to it as a shit sandwich. A meaningful life, would logically be about meaningful [...]

Seeking Sustenance on Hungry Wednesday

By Les Visible What I have found, as a seeker, is that certain guaranteed states of awareness arrive over the course of the search. One of these things is being absolutely convinced of the presence and operation of a supreme being. It’s something different from faith and belief. It’s certitude. Faith, certitude and discrimination are [...]

Dessert Toppings and Floor Waxes

By Les Visible What I most noticed, in my tiptoeing through the knife edged tulips, of the despicable press, were the comments that followed the despicable articles, written by despicable people. Especially in cases of personal misfortune, sometimes a comeuppance, where everyone forgets about, “there but for fortune goes you and I”, the comments generally [...]

That Big Open Air Affair

By Les Visible Years ago, I remember Guru Bawa saying that the divine views us like action on a TV set. The divine views us like a TV camera and we can drop off on his field of vision. We want to stay in the vision field of the divine because many things are possible [...]

Frottage Fever and a Date with the Reaver

By Les Visible It becomes increasingly harder to know what to say; to find that there is anything to say. Obviously it has already been said and the same people not paying attention then are not paying attention now. It’s not my alarm clock and it’s not my world, that so many are attached to [...]

Mayday! Mayday! Incoming!!!

By Les Visible The thing is, we’re only here to come to terms with something we don’t understand, until we come to terms with it. Our mediums of expression can be violent and duplicitous on the way. All of my fighting styles and defense mechanisms are female, if that rings a bell (just joking!!! …but [...]

OK2BME, like, Totally, in Sticky Wicket Township

By Les Visible Evil and selfish interest likes to conceal itself in the midst and deflect the slings and arrows of undesired misfortune and focused attention by making it appear that an attack upon them, is an attack upon all of them when they are not them. Most of the world of the moment operates [...]

The Dyslexic, Prophetic and it’s Attendant Diametrics

By Les Visible You know, these days, even people who profess to love and admire the truth, get uneasy when the truth comes on too strong. Wait till you run into it with its sunglasses off and no filters. Personal run ins with the truth can be surprising, disarming and scary. It’s best to get [...]

Thomas Aquinas, Sigmund Freud, Rheumatoid Arthritis Syndrome

By Les Visible Anyone who has all the answers is wrong, especially anyone who is absolutely certain and even more so when they try to engage complex language that has the same comparative effect on my digestive system as overcooked linguine. I’ve waxed complex on occasion but I generally like things as simple as possible. [...]

The Whistle-Blower Raphsody in Asia Minor

By Les Visible The most powerful weapon in the hand of the villains de jour, is leverage. It’s leverage that has made these recent wars possible and what is fueling the drive for what is planned. It is leverage that accounts for the emergent police state; the ongoing economic crises, the behavior of politicians and [...]
