"Reality has specificity / Specific gravities unique to each"
On the Universal Specificity of Reality
The zenith of the whole celestial sphere As well as its nadir are both right here The celestial sphere is here inside me It is also true it is inside you
Reality has specificity Specific gravities unique to each And each reality its lessons teach As all the stars glisten: look and listen
Unreal to me are war and eating meat Also alcohol drugs and folderol And those who enjoy their war in Iraq Should go fight it there and save their attack For their imagined enemies not these Mothers and others who worry and reach Out to seek peace when the world has gone mad
If Bush and Blair love war so let them go And fight it themselves and I would be glad But leaders are liars as all now see I do not consume what others excrete
Each and every consciousness has its own Specific universe: leave mine alone
