Submission guidelines
To not be refused admission one must submit
to the first guideline.
To submit
is the first guideline. The second guideline
remembers the first temple. The second temple was not like the first
is the second guideline. But pay no mind. And do admit. You will never gain admission by paying mind
to these guidelines. You will not have time. You will not die
for a long time and you will die
without ever knowing the first temple
existed. But you may well have become admitted to the second temple, made famous, and you will definitely
have submitted to the guidelines. It may almost
not even have hurt, or if it did you will not have noticed
and if you did you will have forgotten
by now. Unless you are dead. In which case your remains will be
refused permission, much as the commingled bones of the christian martyrs buried in the catacombs
beneath Rome were not admitted to the above ground city of Rome, so that you will no longer be
feeling any pain, if you ever did, from the unfortunate stumble that happened
after you bumped your head upon an overhanging vine latticed
monumental arch as you entered the second temple to receive your laurels.
They were always going to be heavy
after all.

My entire family survived a real death this afternoon.
Airstrikes hit near Fun City in Sanaa, where hundreds of children including mine were playing.
Shrapnels, sand and stones hit under their feet. They were almost suffocated by dust and smoke.

You don't have to agree with trump but the mob can't make me not love him. We are both dragon energy. He is my brother. I love everyone. I don't agree with everything anyone does.

Just three days later, West checked into the UCLA medical center, suffering from exhaustion and lack of sleep, and spent a week there receiving mental health treatment. His wife, Kim Kardashian, who has made no public appearances since a robbery in Paris in October, where she was tied up and robbed of millions of dollars’ worth of jewelry, was not with him for his arrival at Trump Tower. His entourage included a videographer. Trump’s daughter Ivanka was also there.

currently developing about my parents country and the relationship which
indirectly connect me to my origins, which will continue with several
travels in the continent during the current year and the next one, in
particular covering the North-East region and the Uruguayan border,
documenting gauchos rodeos and typical livestock markets, regions where
my parents spent almost all of their life.: photo by Giuanluca Morini, 15 April 2017

I'll have to admit I'm a bit prejudiced here. Never really quite understood the urge or desire or need to submit to whatever it is promises to take away the onus of having to go out on a limb and OMG think for yourself.
"You've got to serve somebody", and so on.
Whatever the traffic will bear. Market forces. Upon what other foundation is however shakily based any of these dwarf grand institutes and colleges which offer to remove that onus, for only say 50 K per annum x however many tiresome years of having to make up totally disingenuous things to say about whatever the last reading was.
I mean I get it's better than having to get a job. But still, Just saying.
What by the way is a job I esk ya.
Curious memory. Only student i ever had who saw through the whole charade of Admission and Submission, saw it for what it was, named it forever, in the title of a poem in her MFA thesis yet,
"Another bought situation".

Thanks Tom , good to see this, thanks for keeping up all your good works. Steve
Thank you Steve!
It's only your astounding daily example keeps me going.
O tempora, O mores!
Thanks Tom! It's your ongoing prodigious efforts that likewise spur me onward . . . what else can one do but aspire to continue?
