What Rob Brezsny does with words is grammarye, the Old English term for magic. With his strange brew of macho feminism and poetic rationalism, Brezsny weaves a yarn crazy enough to be true and real enough to subvert the literalist virus of cynicism now immobilizing the collective mind scape.

Who knows? Life may just be a Positive Conspiracy bent on putting us in the right place at the right time every living, breathing moment of the day. It just takes a certain kind of perspective to see this. Realizing this can put our "analyzer" on hold, our interpretive mind on "ga-ga" and our hearts on breathless.

This shift from automatic living to awakening parallels Carl Jung's Individuation, Dada Bhagwan's Self-realization, Dr. Abraham Mazlow's Self-Actualization, G.I.

Myths are like dreams in that without them, we’re as good as dead. However…dreams can be dangerous. Anybody living with one they are unable to manifest, articulate and/or share has, perhaps, already begun losing their handle. In the face of unknowns, I appreciate handles. They let me float in the abyss, knowing there is a grip to return to somewhere. Occasionally, I feel the only real handle there is, is my physical body. It’s a relief to release that grip on occasion—to collapse, drop my big act and “die.”
