CYCLE TWO
1. Truth is not for everybody - as the world constantly
demonstrates by its refusal to acknowledge it and/or subversive arrogation of
it by the Lie.
2. 'Beauty is Truth, Truth ... Beauty' (Keats);
what could be less true than that? But,
then, the poet, especially in the West, has always felt entitled to play God!
3. As I have often said, poets and philosophers
are, if genuine, like Devils and Gods towering over the men and women of
fiction and drama, viz. novels and plays.
4. Of course, the world won't take any notice or
pay much heed to what I say, because it is a lie that fights shy of truth,
including the 'truth' about a variety of literary and similar cultural
alternatives, in the interests of its own commercial aggrandisement.
5. I don't expect anything from the world, nor
do I allow the world to expect very much - excepting truth
- from me.
6. For I have judged the world, both in its
phenomenal and noumenal, lower class and upper class,
manifestations, and those whom I have judged would know whether they were
destined for salvation or damnation in relation to the projected three-tier
structure of 'Kingdom Come' and its administrative aside which characterizes my
best works.
7. Thus in one sense Judgement has already come
to pass, whilst in another sense - the actual coming of the 'Kingdom' attendant
upon a democratically expressed majority mandate for religious sovereignty - it
has still to come.
8. Some people, I know, will think me mad. But what does that prove? Great things always encounter opposition from
the small-minded.
