“What happens before birth and resumes after death - this is more real than the brief spark of life. Out lives just carry the physical burden of carrying energy forward. We put on suits of meat as training, as a challenge. We all know this is temporary.” LifeSoulDeathSpirituality Book:Split Tooth Source: Split Tooth
“DIE TOPOGRAFIE DES MITLEIDS Betrachte die Menschen voller Mitleid Warum sind sie so geknechtet? Was mag mit ihnen passiert sein? Was mag mit dir passiert sein? Vielleicht sind wir am Konsum erkrankt Vielleicht sind wir am Stolz erkrankt Vielleicht sind wir an Apathie erkrankt Dein Besitz wird dich nicht retten Dein Geld wird dich nicht retten Selbst wenn du deine Ersparnisse rettest Das Geld wird nie reichen und du wirst nie reichen Wir betrachten die vernarbte Erde voller Mitleid Was haben wir ihr angetan? Hat sie uns nicht mit Mineralien versorgt Und mit Elektrizität Hat sie uns nicht ausgespuckt Und das Leben geschenkt? Nur um uns wieder zu verschlucken Und mit den Jahreszeiten zu atmen? Damit wir zu ihrer Humusschicht werden? Vielleicht betrachtet sie uns nicht mit der Liebe einer Mutter Sondern mit derselben Gleichgültigkeit Die wir für unsere Lunge empfinden Mit derselben Gleichgültigkeit Die wir für den Menschen ohne Obdach empfinden” Empathy Book:Split Tooth Source: Split Tooth
“There is a siren that sounds in our small town to announce the curfew. At noon and at 10 p.m. Every time the siren sounds all the sled dogs howl, and I imagine that they think there is a large, loud god dog that rules the land howling. I equate this with religion. A short-sighted and desperate attempt for humans to create reason and order in a universe we can't possibly comprehend. The simple truth is that we are simply an expression of the energy of the sun. We are the glorious manifestation of the power of the universe.” ReligionHumanityUniverseExistence Book:Split Tooth Source: Split Tooth

“When your body is clear there is control. When your body is clear you can choose whom to let in. There is love everywhere. Please cradle my rabbit heart. Please navigate yourself around me well. I know too much. I can recognize darkness because he is my brother, my maker. I can drink lightness because it is the only way to survive. I can shut off my heart but that leads to evil, so I express her and revel in the nuance of blood currents, and the sacred demons. I fear and quake with my eyes darting fight or flight love or die. The lightning comes from below this time and rips out of my throat for the world to see. They all see my rabbit and I have trained her to hunt. In her perfect glory she is shy and extroverted, chaste and perverted, my sweet near-death more alive than ever. Take her. Take me while I am ripe and open, rub berries on my lips and bear fat in my hair. Tattoo me with a needle and impale me with your warmth. Heal me, fuck me, and work my heart till she beats strong and unafraid. Haunches bared, teeth sharpened, wide-eyed and aware. Hurry. I want to feel safe.” LoveFearAbuseAddictionVulnerabilitySpirit Animal Book:Split Tooth Source: Split Tooth
