No one told me
before I got here
that nothing truly
begins. Not really.
Rather, endings bleed
into inceptions, fertilizer
for what must be born.
And conception
is the womb that incubates
a seed of perfect
demise.
Sacrifice has always
been about this
merciless magic,
this capitulation
to death that nurtures
life and life that swallows
death.
Finish lines
are impossible because
straight lines do not exist.
This whole divine game
board, this frolic of endings
and beginnings,
is a circle.

The eternal immutable truth is the Spirit and without the Spirit the pragmatic truth of a self-creating universe would have no origin or foundation; it would be barren of significance, empty of inner guidance, lost in its end, a firework display shooting up in to the void only to fall away and perish in mid-air. But neither is the pragmatic truth a dream of the non-existent, an illusion or a long lapse into some futile delirium of creative imagination; that would be to make the eternal Spirit a drunkard or a dreamer, the fool of his gigantic self-hallucinations.
