My ribosomal trna tymine complex is neato

so this guy walks up to me
and says....

your RIBOSOMAL TRNA THYMINE COMPLEX is spectacular!
You win a million dollars!

yea,
right

in reality
a moment of lust
with a biological pleasure similar to

shitting out that marbleized steak
or pissing out a big gulp

created a DNA concoction that became me

generally this is called conception
or sex
or whatever you like for a definition

I like the shit-piss pleasure comparison
(but that is just me)


so anyway
I am here
having this shit-piss inspired DNA

and no one is going to give me any prize based on it
no million dollars
no not here, not now, not for me

all my DNA proves is that I am human
it created the instructions for my body and my body alone

so...I have a body

and this is where the mistake lies
this body does not belong to anyone
not my parents, not me
it belongs to this mystery of evolution
that perpetuates based on shit-piss pleasure
I am a link in a chain
I am not the link before
not the link after
and not the chain

I am a place holder only
a carrier through time of the will power of genetics
or the will to life

so
basically
fuck you
and fuck you
and fuck you
and fuck you

fuck you pissers and fuck you shitters
fuck my parents and any relative that claims power over me
I am not yours
you do not own me
I didn't ask to be yours

you did not wake up one day and say
"I think I will benefit the evolutionary perpetuation of the will to live"

no
you mother fuckers were only considering your own fucking selves
what you wanted

and you can't have me
I belong to everyone

IT

IT

it is waiting for you
it is more patient than you

and your it is not my it
your it is your it

but they are similar
here to remind us...

one way or another
our time is short

Body Says "NO"

any person who has told his body one thing
and his body said, "NO"

understands
right and wrong
are not ethics questions
are not philosophy

Know Your Enemy

I have not only
not
loved my neighbor

I think I am am afraid of him!

he is out to take my money,
i think

or to gain my consciousness
to bend me to his will
change me

no title

It is all there before us
as a grand buffet
right at our fingertips

this life

we all dine at the same table

this world that bore
so many different souls

how it works

you just don't know

how many prayers you didn't have to pray

you just don't know
just how close to disaster you were

the breath of the wind carried you

so light
you didn't even feel it

52 Cards

reality one:

Normal Waking State
realm of action-reaction and interaction

reality two:

Dream State
realm of essence creates material understanding

The dream state uses imagery of the walking state
to relate ideas and feelings.
Literally,
You feel it, you see it in dream imagery

a mine of thoughts and emotions

but there is one more

reality:

this one we will just call the
"unproven"
it is to sleep as sleep is to waking
it is another layer

erase your body
your thoughts
your feelings

and there is still something there

we don't know what to call it

but clearly we are playing
with more cards
than are in a deck

Born Upside Down

sometimes I think I was born upside down

there was somewhere,
a mistake

I am above

tangled in the
indiscriminate beauty

~Joshua

Blessed are the...

Seeing the crowds, he went up on the mountain, and when he sat down his disciples came to him. And he opened his mouth and taught them, Saying :
"I am God, pray to me and build me temples"

or not?

I say no

he said

not forgotten are those who suffer in the name of being true
and those that bring peace, are pure in heart, and suffer for the truth
they will not be forgotten

instead

they will be called sons of God
they will see God
and will make theirs the kingdom of heaven

I would say, not a bad description of what is going on here

and not a bad description by the man about the man himself

a sort of secret code
a message encrypted
to those that understand

love and be nice

~joshua kline

Jesus Book

Why did Jesus never write a book?
For someone of great clarity
who would surely know
as people misunderstood him
they would misunderstand his teachings

I would write a book
I mean
for the sake of being clear

but there must have been a reason he didn't

Jesus had the option of writing a book
but didn't
it was a conscious choice

not only that
but having that clarity Jesus had

he never mentioned a book would be written in his name
never said, follow my book
read it
remember it

no no
no

he turned to his friends
and loved them
with compulsion

he knew the secret was not understandable
only by heart alone is it clear
and he spent his live trying to reveal that secret

humanity is passed person to person
not by knowledge
but by love

~Joshua Kline

so we have a system

to succeed
you take more than you need

this creates successful rich people
and unsuccessful poor people

then the rich take their money
and hide the poor people

scared of them

Proper Currency

if you have
I don't

the scarcity principle of economics

but this is a mistake
it is accounting in a invalid currency

instead-
you have and I have

not two halves

but two wholes
and a sum that is more than two wholes

then my friend
you will be selling the right wares
you will be accounting on the proper currency

On earth as it is in....

so you have

agnostics

atheists

humanists

and

believers

and me

is there a category missing?

yea, me

I will make my own category

"I don't give a shit"

yea

that is me

I don't care

my objective
is not to get to heaven
like I said,
I don't care
my objective it to bring heaven here
on earth as in heaven
that is my power
I have no power over heaven
that is not my territory
entry and exit are not my choice
but I am here
and I can do something about that

and that is cool

Evolution Clairified

scientist are looking for lucy
that magic link
between
animal and man

theologians are looking for
that divine moment
when the breath of life was
inspired in the animal
and souls were born

but I tell you
no no
not it
just not it

it is not genetics
it is not prayer

it is
and I will tell you what it is
it is

the moment we began to live for the communal
even above the self
self preservation parallels preservation of all
that moment
contains evolution

lucy is not to be found
prayers are not enough

because
we have not arrived yet

we have not crossed over into our destiny
our full potential is evolving
but has not arrived yet

don't let evolution be genetic errors
evolution is now in our hearts
it is ultimately a choice

Translation

when my mind translates to my heart
my life becomes frustrating, confusing, and empty.

When my heart translates to my mind
my life seems to be inspired to the pursuit
of happiness through goodness and kindness.

Yet, all I have done for the first part of my life
is train my mind

~joshua

Perfect Knowledge

I do wish to know

one thing

had I had perfect knowledge of what is important
would these seeming failures in life
be right

I imagine a veil being pulled away

If i wish for one thing
it is to take away this enormous mystery from my life

it is a shame
I must live this life of consequence
not knowing true knowledge

all my attempts at guessing this knowledge
seemed to take me nowhere


~joshua

It only rains on earth

from nothing you can touch
as if from the heavens
it moves to its destination
fast as the natural forces will pull it
to be destroyed on arrival

is it a raindrop from 10,000 feet

it rains
and all rain goes the same way
has the same destination
earth
and it will die
or be separated to indefinable little parts
that sink into the earth
never to be seen again

it rains

it really does




from nothing you can touch
as if from the heavens
it moves to its destination
fast as the natural forces will pull it
to be destroyed on arrival


i think it is me
I arrived mysteriously
from nothing
I move forward
as fast as I can

but all raindrops hit the earth
and die

yet it rains
and always will

it will go on
and there are an infinite
number of drops

and nobody knows why it rains
or why it started to rain

we can describe how it rains
what composes it
how the life process works

but no man can explain where rain came from
maybe the conditions, yes
but not the why

why on every planet we know to exist
it does not rain

only here

only here it rains


only here

only here we find souls


from nothing you can touch
as if from the heavens
it moves to its destination
fast as the natural forces will pull it
to be destroyed on arrival

~joshua

I am

so much of me depends on my environment
depends on the passage of time
and time putting various circumstances in my lap

I react and adapt
move forward
forget and forgive

but what more is there?

I am more than a reaction
more than things I can perceive then control

there is part of me that remains

I see the product, others see the product

but I am more than a reaction

I am static
I am my past and future
a past and future separate
separate from my environment
separate from my circumstances

this is my goal
this is absolutely my goal

to be my past and future
the part that remains static
the indefinable part
that shines when circumstances
arise

this is the core
that is timeless
perpetual
and without....

without being seen
it hides

it is the part that calls to action
and I judge by action
but it remains
separate

I am everything I want to be
I am all-present
and all encompassing presence

I am
I am
I am

and nothing more

to realize this is my goal

~joshua

Two things I never understood

two things I never understood

1) Why when I prayed for understanding of divine presence.... all I ever found was the world around me

never did understand that one

2) Why why when I prayed, it didn't seem to make things go my way

and those seemed like reasonable things to inquire about
and to think about
I think most people do
and their spiritual life usually hinges on it
basic questions


and my newest conclusions are somewhat different

for 1)
That is the proof

for 2)
sometimes "no" is a good answer

~Joahua

Higher Power

I have spent almost 20 years contemplating a higher power

And 20 years of research on...
anything....

should yield some conclusions

right?

but none


kinda sad, ain't it?

now I begin to realize
I can
imagine a higher power,

If in twenty years I have not figured out something
means,
maybe I am not so good at it
and that a higher power
is not hard to imagine

~Joshua

Invest

I always thought maybe living for the future
was the ticket

a snowball effect

put your resources forward
invest
in your future

and yes,
things to improve by working hard
for a better tomorrow

but tomorrow is not an ending

and there is always an ending
somewhere

so we will always be behind
only the past and present are guaranteed
but we are spending these
in trade
for the future

which is not guaranteed

this is an investment in our future
give up now, for later
give your money now, make more later
invest
interest

and then
things didn't go as planned

and we all know how that feels
nothing ever goes as planned
eventually
we find
we are not as bright as the infinite cosmos

and, yea
we loose every time

but so we are living that moment
insulting it
saying, "Mr. Moment.... you are not good enough
we are trading you in for a newer model!"

constantly.....
we do this constantly

if we are living for the future
almost by DEFINITION the present is not good enough

and yet all we have is the present moment
and we are running away from it
towards that all-better deal, the future

unhappiness anyone?

~joshua

Drumroll Please

Along the lines of hate and strife
Walks a man alone under a knife
He took a ram and made it mine
He left the lamb for drinks of wine

He lost his catch
It made him roll
Above the skin
Below a soul

Remarks uncanny
It took my line
Please take this umph
It's not a sign

You feel so angry
You deny it so
You lost the avery
So long behold

Its heavy
Its rusty
Its met with cash

Its rough
Like turbulent
And stings your ass

But a kind wind rustles
sheets of white clean linen
Across a fold
Below a cross
On top substantial pennance

Along a line of armor
defenses take place
The same words ramble
As if needing space

It's a long wind blowing
Might boast because
The lines startin' to showin'
'Bout what once was

But a march commence in its deaf
and a shreak tears the air
Along a long wide road
Where I swear we met there

Believe the lies
Take a toll
Move it on
Remove your soul

Let it lie
Let it sulk
Let it mute
Beyond bulk

Find your time
whisper words
Willow cross
No absurd

Make some sense
Feel it not
You're the culprit
I'm the fox

Makes no difference
Feeds the lines
But there are none
on the inside

Take it home
unless you're there
Sure hope you are
and aware

Let me explain.. no it is too much- let me sum up

The world resplendant, straining at the seams,
"stretching before uslike a landof dreams"
overflowing, turbulent with life,
with all of its pointless and animal strife,
with its gut twisting beauty
with its shocking variety-is still only a world
among infinite worlds
is only a place
insignificant, precious, in space.
Floating 3 trillion light years away from our galaxy
it all seems so trifling,it all seems so silly,
watching people like ants
worrying, scurrying
furiously fighting over bread crumbs
believing that existance consists of their experience.
Well I tell you, there is more than you can see, or perceive
I've been to places that you wouldn't believe
space is vast, but a mind can make matter
destroy energy, freeze time, utterly master
each aspect of living,
save the world, rule the universe..
and as we're barreling through this breathtaking epic, for better or worse
you're alive, you're involved, you must contribute a verse.
And it's you're choice entirely-
you can choose fantasty, tragedy,
senseless smiling hilarity,
you can choose to act
or you can choose to rehearse.
And each part is necessary-
every note builds the symphony.
The world rests in our hands, but it's only folly
to take yourself or the world too seriously.
We're dust, we're worm food, we're energy and matter
which for the blink of an eye has been stitched together
into a mobile volatile bundle of senses
which, while it still breathes
invariably believes it's the center of existance.
But I can only feel awed and grateful.
Life is real, is vibrant-
life is full.
And I intend to savor the taste while I still have a pulse.
There is simply no time to despair-
it's a crime to waste air
sullenly sulking over the sordid state of human affairs.
Well I tell you,
there will always be madmen, and hatred, and strife.
And each of us is born but to die-
such is life, such is life.
But it's your life, to use as you choose
you can systemize, materialize,
defend or destroy it.
And though some may not understand,
demand otherwise.
It's your life- and you can choose to enjoy it.

Stay with what has no explanation

if you have part of you that exists
and exists only
for no apparent reason
nothing proves this part of you should exist
you did not make it to satisfy a demand
not for its usefulness

but is
and continues to be a part of you
look at this
this is where the explanation of who you are
begins
where explanation leaves off

What to look for

it is usually from the out to the in

we are all creatures of input
5 senses
brain to interpret and control
then two hands, two feet, and a mouth
built for the purpose of control and personal survival
perpetuation of our biology

I propose
this is what we are

or are mostly

look for what goes in opposition

sometimes the in goes out
and beauty is released for no reason
and
sometimes we do things not directly useful to ourselves
like giving, like love

Quiet Good, Quiet Evil

knowledge
seems to define good and evil

but maybe a lot of good and evil exists
quietly
deceiving our knowledge

how then do we play this game
being limited?

Stomach

I used to think I would like to do without the material world

but I now think my stomach is the worst suspect

I can handle the material world

it is my stomach that is the difficult one

without it
I would need nothing

my entire life is built the the sustainability and perpetuation of my food supply

otherwise I could wander the earth with no possessions
no worries of where to go
how long to stay

I would be free

Benefit

Goodness may be without our benefit

is this good?
Is this intentional?

Josh Land

I think more people would search for goodness
if its rewards were more than personal
but visible
and you could tell what goodness a person has done
by looking at them
and realize you want to like that person
or that they are more valuable as a person

sounds crazy
but that is what we do
in the material world
we buy things to show what we are
so others will like us
or want to be like us

Would it all be better?

what if you remembered everything you learned,
made only each mistake once
and always thought things through carefully

growing
advancing

would it all be better?

Seems I am confused

seems I am confused

this mind following this body
I can't be two places at once
no
not really
I am where this body is
at all times
and that seems inescapable

except maybe when I live in another
or him in me
when I feel his pain or joy
and him mine

then things get blurry
and what we are seems less tied to this body

Again

doing something twice
means either

we didn't get it the first time

or

maybe we did get it
and wish it upon ourselves again

The truth we started with

every question asked of me
I answer

even if the right answer
I don't know

my answers are great
and I spend my precious time
proving them

but I must accept
maybe some times i am wrong

it is a hazard of life
we are always learning

consistently learning
therefor consistently wrong
or there would be no growth
the movement from really wrong to kinda wrong
this personal advancement

now I have learned to question the questions
maybe not only are my answers flawed
but maybe
maybe

all answers are wrong
maybe the real questions were never asked
and the ones we hear
mainly voices in our heads
striving to understand it all
self medication from our minds

maybe there are no questions
maybe life is not a lesson learned

question the question
and things become clearer

maybe our lessons are a detriment
the more we focus on learning the world
the more we are entangled in it
trapped in our own quest
away from ourselves
and into the endless existence
we are trying to come to
the end of

waiting to arrive
at the final destination

deeper
and deeper
in the world
using out intelligence to fight
win
win win

what if escaping
is not the answer?

maybe it is not truth we are in search of learning
maybe it is truth where we started
and this diving in the world
to learn the better truth
is really a running
running
running

from the truth we can't handle

the truth we started with

A Reminder

sometimes you just need to hear
the answers
even if you already know them

it is not much to be great
simply remind people what they are

there is nothing more to do
nothing

Make Waves

in this pond
there are those that make waves
and those that bob

you may not recognize the wave makers
they hide sometimes
not the delivery
but the message

you can recognize them though
they are the ones that gain strength

all opposing drifts away
or sinks

Everything Explained

Sometimes,
sometimes I think there is a reason for everything

fuck if I can figure out what that is
though

what if everything can be explained
by things I don't know
or comprehend

what exactly that is,

fuck me, I don't 'know

but sometimes I don't care
and I imagine all lack of understanding
being composed of love

and sometimes
sometimes
that is reason enough

Giving Up

giving up does not mean abandoning what we are
some times
giving up
is closer to what we are

Choice

goodness should not be a choice

Holds Truth

if there is no grade
then the answer does not matter
but the question still holds truth
regardless

The Now Armageddon

Is it wrong?

This generation will not pass away until all these things have taken place.
—Matthew 24:34, Mark 13:30, Luke 21:32

Is it possible something we believe word for word could be wrong?

People have been reading the bible for almost two thousand years

Waiting for something
That was supposed to already happen

the end of the world
the second coming

but it didn't

maybe it is not a Armageddon experience

but now, always

this is it

you fight it

you see it,

you live it

Is all it means

Do to others as you wish them to do to you.

just be nice, I suppose
is all it means

till it got stretched
to

"love your neighbor as yourself"

just ultimate unity of all human beings, I suppose
is all it means

You are nothing like you say

my problem is that I have believed you
all those things you mentioned
all those things you mentioned about yourself
about what you are
what you want to be
how you are not your past
but are a bright future

I believed you
and i thought I had a understanding of you

you, in fact, are nothing like you say
nothing like you do

you are a mystery beyond all understanding
screaming to be known

and that mystery is not solved by action or knowledge

there is nothing really to prove
only something to believe in

Not found

I did not find what I was looking for

my desires my own creation

and still failure

how is that?

To my soul

as a baby
I slept constantly
it worked out just fine
not afraid of loosing the time

when I was little
I hated to go
and loose the day
edgar to live
to continue to be
afraid of loosing the time

As I got older
I loved to sleep
getting rid of that day
starting another
fresh drudgery
afraid of being tired of the time

to my soul
sleep calling
sleep calling
sleep calling

what am I to do?

"yes yes, we are going to play it by ear
we are not going to leave, we are staying right here
going out to my people with the same idea,
moving up, moving up"

in the human condition
some people choose to give
till there is no more blindness

you will find them in all aspects of life
but they are there

Beautiful confusion

follow it
that beautiful confusion

Intimacy

It is not that I have offended God,
it is what I have done to him.

It is not that I have served God,
It is what I have done to him.

Taste

I take a bite and think,
"This is a waste"
I take another bite, and think,
"But my not eating does not feed the hungry"

Artistic LIscense

sit there
and say...

"fuck it"

because you are an artist

say

"fuck it"

you do what you want to do
when you doubt the success of what you do
just...

"fuck it"

do it anyway

because you are an artist

you can not tell the painter what color
or the musician the right note
or a poet the right word
or a priest the right prayer

fuck it
do what you want

you are an artist
but one of love

when doubt
dive in

fuck it

How to win

yes
there is a trinity
they say

but they spoke to the fourth entity

you

and you are inseparable from your brother and sister

all you have to do

is help to bring it to the level

"on earth as it is in heaven"

and when you do this, it is an impossible task

but no worries!

it is not about your success
only your effort

effort proves

effort proves

it is all real and worthy

the only victory

Rule #2

you are more than yourself

when you do or say
you affect others

you may perceive as you wish

but you are insane in that place

till you learn to use it

and to bring no harm

in mind or body

a truth is not a truth if it hurts another

there is no truth that hurts another

truth is only love

and love is not pain

be careful

Rules

You may take it, hold it, share it, honor and cherish it

but it is not yours

you may not keep it

it can not be hoarded

It may not be stored

It may not be yours

If you try to confine it
it withdraws or drives you insane

the insanity is the problem
it is not you
just remember it is not you
not you

but you would kill yourself to have it
you don't believe it is
not you

hold it, share it, let it go its way

do not go crazy

Might Understand I of Me

I will remain blind till there is no more blindness

its far too easy
to get lost in mess
but its just as simple
to reassess

then its far too easy
to loose the slack
almost as easy as it is
to turn your back

but there's a fine wind blowing
that will never touch
the span of your back
you love to show so much

there's nowhere to look
there's nowhere to be
there's nowhere to go
there's nothing to flee

its a feeling
an urge
a divine line
to be free

its beyond
it transcends
its aloof
its crazy

it doesn't matter
then it does
remarks like yuk
so what because

it changes pace
it shakes the wine
its lost in translation
its divine

its rambled nonsense
insistent pause
its cause for armor
unless it does

its unable to hear you
it only speaks
to the man in the mirror
when you're underneath

you don't talk to god with words
You talk in love

for example
when you smile at a stranger,
because it improves the world
you smile to advance love

In a sense, you are speaking to love

If you want to talk
talk love, not words

and when you talk love it talks back

after smiling on that stranger
it made you feel better

~Joshua

Life is no so complicated at is seems

there are only two things in the world

those things of compassion, speaking to the heart of God
and those things which detract from the human existence, namely selfishness

those are the only two things that exist
and everything can be categorized by them

there is no middle ground
there is no both

not to say this is easy to understand
no
no it is not

anything you thought other than this
is an illusion
a self created illusion

everything you thought you did for another purpose
was only judged in this manner

so analyze what you do in these two categories

1) those things of compassion, speaking to the heart of God
2) and those things which detract from the human existence, namely selfishness

"If I drift long enough I will be home"
~Jack Johnson


I drift,
I drift
lost
finding no way
other than
I am here
amidst the infinite

bobbing
all action useless
breath holding

sinking
always sinking

breath holding


~Joshua

Inherit Eternal Life

inherit:
to gain what is promised to you

eternal:
having no begging and no end, timeless

life:
the fruit of what we are

Do we live forever, or does forever live in us?
~Joshua

Think Clearly

it is not you looking at the world
waiting for the world to change
it is the world looking at you
and waiting for you to change

think clearly


~Joshua

circumstance

you can be happy in sad circumstances
and sad in happy circumstance


and yet we search for the circumstance?

Journey

it is the passage of communication
not the origin
or source
the journey begins at the source
but the journey is not the source
