getting the famous "help you so desperately need"

We've Relapsed, Thank God
Relapsing is
returning to old habits. Backsliding.
We both relapsed this week ...
to a habit I thought I'd overcome long ago: love.

Just another bipolar day: Tragedy ,Romance, Mania..Hope
Riz reclined majestically on his couch, sans shirt and pants. His 350 lb buddha body was squirming. He was on the phone with his little bro, and there was trouble.

Bipolars! It is Time to Unite...
We are told that hypomanics built America.
Hypomanics, segregated, now comprise a subculture. They are gradually recognizing each other. It is like night and day: we converse with the Normals, who live in a dreamscape, a nihilistic nightmare world.
We reject it,… Read full post »
Bring Down the American Empire and Bring on America
'Brothers and sons of America
til our faces pale & yellow
heads depressed
voices weak, eyes downcast,
hands work-bruised
feet bleeding on the sultry sands
and the furrows of the whip

THE DANGERS OF GROUP THERAPY
I was late for the weekly 7 p.m. group therapy I facilitated at the Moravian Buddhist Church because some joker blew up my new Lexus, and I had to stick around at the scene and answer a slew of tedious questions from the cops. This was the third car I'd lost… Read full post »
I am Now Even More Homeless Than Before!
I was "enjoying" the solicitude of the Manchester Area Conference of Churches' shelter when I had a run in with MACC's Executive director and was kicked out on my ass.
We "guests" were lined up one night in front of the establishment, and some of us were encroaching on town pr… Read full post »
Words of Wisdom
Life is a multimedia work of Art.
Art is all.
The point of the universe is Beauty.
You fill up the Universe beautifully...the conscious recognition of this is not difficult to achieve: feel the body bliss in every idiosyncratic movement...it its yours...and you fill up the Universe...it is for you,… Read full post »
Colonize!
Some of us-- the meek-- have a certain shame of expansion
We allow our self space to be brutally territorialized
and we shrink to the smallest volume we can sustain
(or we shrink to nothing)
When the meek inherit the earth,
it will be by
colonizing the space we now… Read full post »

No Ride to Get My Head Shrunk Revenge Blues
I went to see Riz yesterday in his section 8 suite. He was recovering from a second bout of pneumonia, which he got because he never moves around much. Just sits in his new brown recliner, phone in hand, laptop on his meaty thighs, diet coke on an endtable next… Read full post »
Tis Time for the Second Coming, I Say.
This is my take on Christianity, which I kind of like, though it's scary.
In the First Coming---including the Cruci-fiction , the Resurrection, etc---- Christ generously conquered the Spiritual World for Us. Thank you, J.
Our souls are now saved.

How To Survive Homelessness
Recognize that you are now part of a Family. Your previous family is still there, but: it is now probably estranged from you. Don't weep & moan about it. It is time to prove to them that you are a self-sufficient mother-fucker, so they don't wanna hear alot of anger… Read full post »
