each moment is bardo
each moment is bardo
light coming
out of darkness
and going in
each moment is bardo
walking through
time with you, with
joy and with pain
each moment is bardo
for the purified
soul and heart
it is useless to fight
each moment is bardo
with an embrace
of loss and richness
the circle unwinds
each moment is bardo
to accept means nothing,
it is blind arrogance:
there is no choice
each moment is bardo
we live
and we die
when you hold my hand
with you and all
in this flow, this
withholding of time:
each moment is bardo

weight
i was told yesterday i am traditional
and closed. a friend i told laughed
and giggled for minutes.
it felt as if she was taking a
weight off me.
i maybe impulsive and at times
childish: i will admit.
but this is a different matter.
the room of pain
a bird came in,
the window open,
it circled
hitting its head
all time the
window stayed open
the bird could not
find the way out
circling and falling
in the room of pain
until i took it
in a piece of cloth
and made it fly
outside, i let it go.
pain is loss
loss of freedom
pain is no way out,
pain is blindness,
in each room of pain
a window is open
..a hangover or a head hitting walls?
just all the same..

Marc Wittman, Felt Time
“Consciousness is tied to corporeality and temporality: I experience myself as existing with a body over time.”
"Presence means becoming aware of a physical and psychic self that is temporally extended. To be self-conscious is to recognize oneself as something that persists through time and is embodied."
"Through mindfulness and emotional control, the tempo of life that we experience can be reduced, and we can regain time for ourselves and others."
"On the phenomenal level, consciousness — and the self-consciousness deriving from it — is distinguished by spatial and temporal presence. Consciousness is tied to corporeality and temporality: I experience myself as existing with a body over time."
and of course, of course:
"Thus, impulsive people display greater temporal myopia."
and citing Henry Miller:
"On how one orients himself to the moment, depends the failure or fruitfulness of it.”
out of "Felt Time:The Psychology of how we perceive Time" by Marc Wittman.

This article reminds me very much of Israel Rosenfield:
"The Stránge , Familiar and Forgotten; An Anatomy of Consciousness".
link: Israel Rosenfield (brainpickimgs.org)
i read the book several times...
quote:
"My memory emerges from the relation between my body (more specifically, my bodily sensation at a given moment) and my brain’s “image” of my body (an unconscious activity in which the brain creates a constantly changing generalized idea of the body by relating the changes in bodily sensations from moment to moment.) It is this relation that creates a sense of self; over time, my body’s relation to its surroundings becomes even more complex, and, with it, the nature of myself and of my memories of it deepen and widen, too. "

And the article on Felt Time shows me that i just am no good at any emotional intelligence.
i am more impulsive than patient. Though i THOUGHT i had never been
so patient for so long. i loathe waiting, i hate being in a state like a bird which
gets disorientated in a room flying against windows and getting stuck in curtains.
It is painful to hit one's head and not see it coming...

time
in this winter
in this winter
i carry darkness, tears,
pestilence, rats
and cockroaches
i carry war, despair,
all untold fear,
blackened mirrors,
abscesses, an echo
terrorizing me
as i don't know
from where it comes
nor why
in this night
i carry all love,
all suffering,
the crucifix of the blind,
in this winter
i carry firewood
and coal
to the holy grail
offering my soul
to heaven
i carry senseless burden,
i ask my Lord, my Lady
to release me,
take my load
to the river
and give me ease
give me peace
i cannot give,
give me shelter
or let me die.

Peter Gabriel, Shock The Monkey
what a shit song, but. as mentioned, why should i care
Patti Smith , Trampin'
to a lady i loved
you always knew
you cannot feel,
you wanted to be out,
not with me
you defined rules,
borders, conditions
and i will not
take them anymore
i see no future
in control nor
in obsession
with guilt
i see no sense
in not creating
and i see no sense
in creating
i see no sense
in flow
but i'd enjoy
if it was there
either i feel
or i don't,
feeling has
been undone.
patience is waiting
and waiting is
not a way to be,
and now i am.
as said, drunk and stoned...

The Rolling Stones - Sympathy For The Devil (Live) - OFFICIAL
o i am not sorry, the devil in its true being means a part of ourselves
which is inside as much as outside and i still enjoy the taste
of this song, if it must be it is ok, i can embrace devils
and i can throw them out of paradise , not a problem,
i forgot paradise
