Just realized I've now written a kind of trilogy of short poetic pieces that come directly from my inner world and the way my path unfolds

if you're curious what my inner life is like, or the flavor of my path, you could probably read all of them in like 10 minutes:

1. 'A Prayer'

I have just been given some truly disgusting details about what vomit day will be like, and I am weirdly giddy about it in a “little boy who loves gross stuff” way

If god wanted me to drink cups of ghee, he would have put me in a hospital where they force me to — oh.

I have a podcast with my friend and imaginal practice teacher Rosa Lewis in which we're watching movies as if they are portals to a psychedelic and imaginal realm. In this last episode of Nouveau Shamanic Cinema we talk about her favorite ever movie: Moulin Rouge! open.spotify.com/episode/3M4n...

The impression I’m getting from the doctors faces today and yesterday is that my body is bad at panchakarma

All these terms (‘ideology, psychofauna, psychoflora, egregore, tilism’) point at the same basic topography;

You can literally just water the seeds the gods planted in you,, it's free and no one can stop you and it'll transform your life and why is basically no one doing this?

an underrated aspect of prayer: if you take seriously the idea that the divine is listening to you, it gets harder to listen to yourself say anything that isn't Truth
