Precious Time

Alexis Seay's avatarThe Tranquil Frog

I am currently working a long post about Time which should be up soon. This song has been running through my head as I have been writing, so I thought I’d put it up now for you to enjoy.

Precious time is slipping away
But you’re only king for a day
It doesn’t matter to which God you pray
Precious time is slipping away

Levels of Being: Putting the Mystery Back Into Life

Alexis Seay's avatarThe Tranquil Frog

One hardly hears discussion of the kingdoms of the natural world anymore. It is introduced in the early grades of our public schools and hardly ever mentioned again unless one goes on to study one or more of the Kingdoms in college. Our secular culture is dominated by the ideas of science and yet so few of us spend any time engaged in the study or practice of science.

Our minds crave certainty and Science seems to fulfill this need. But while Science seems to function as a Culture (See Culture: Where Do We Go From Here?), in reality it falls short. To understand why this is so, let us look at the scientific categories of existence.

Since ancient times the natural world was grouped into four major categories or kingdoms: Mineral, Plant, Animal, Human. Each level has some element the lower level lacks. Each element is a necessary

Minä kerään vuoteni; I’m Collecting My Years

Yelling Rosa's avatarYelling Rosan Blogi

Minä kerään vuoteni

Minä kerään vuoteni
niin kuin verevät
kanervat nippuun.
Korkealle vuorelle
matkaan yksin
ja avaan muistoni
tuulen kuljetettavaksi
kuin lintuja luotani.
Varsien, nuppujen
ja lehtien toivon
maahan päätyvän,
minne jalallaan
ihminen ei ole
astunut.

Siellä saarekkeessa
on muistojen hyvä elää
vapaana ihmisten
loputtomasta vihasta
luonnon viisautta
kohtaan.

I’m collecting my years

I’m collecting my years
Like bleeding heathers
To the red bunch.
I travel to a high mountain
And open my memories
To be carried by the wind
Like birds from me.
Stems, buds
And leaves
I hope
Landing there
Where no foot
Of man is
Stepped.

There on the island
My memories
Have a place to live
Free from humankind’s
Endless anger against
The wisdom of nature.

Kulutuksen vanki; A Prisoner of Consumption

Kulutuksen vanki

Olen läpeeni kyllästynyt,
ja haluan nukkua niin,
etten herää
Silti en kuole.
Se tässä
vituttaa.

Jälkisanat

Katsoin juuri televisiodokumentin tekoälystä ja sen mahdollisista vaaroista. Ohjelman tekijöiden mielestä ihmisten tarkkaileminen ja manipulointi ovat hälyttäviä ilmiöitä. Tätä taustaa vasten tarkasteltuna ”Kulutuksen vanki” -runoni sai uutta ulottuvuutta. Sen lisäksi, että algoritmit ohjaavat meidän kulutustamme, olemme olleet kulutusrobotteja jo ennen tietotekniikan vallankumousta.

Runo kuvaa sitä, kuinka tämä ohjailu repii sielua, mutta mitä vaihtoehtoja ihmisellä on toimia, jos et omista maata ja voi sitä viljellä. Metsään ei niin vaan mennä erakoksi, kun sen omistaa yksityinen ihminen tai sitten se on valtion metsää, jolle on säädetty muut käyttötarkoitukset kuin oravanpyörästä hyppääminen.

A Prisoner of Consumption

I’m sickened tired of this,
And I want to sleep so
I won’t wake up.
However, I don’t
Stop shopping,
Which is what
Pissed me off.

A Sparrow On The Window Ledge

Yelling Rosa's avatarYelling Rosan Blogi

The day before yesterday, I was down by the blue riverside and didn’t know how to pull myself together. Finally, I prayed that Lord relieved me from the pain that was tearing me into pieces. I fell asleep without getting any help. After a while, I waked up because I felt that a bird was singing in my room. It was on the window ledge, but the window was open. I peeped behind the curtain, and I saw a little sparrow who sang from the bottom of its heart. It was slightly downy so that it has stared its first summer and everything was new for it. I knocked the window gently to get its attention, but it didn’t respond. When I added the volume, it almost fell from the ledge before it flew away. I managed to snap many pictures but only reached its back.
