Dear Reader,

IT finally happened! Out of the blew of the wind I assaulted the coursest wrath of my whetherings and SHOPPED!

Don’t get me wrong. I don’t cost that much. But I have lived no cloistered past lives outshining the competition as a wandering Yogi, “lonely as a cloud at Oxford; and avoiding the Lager louts at Londonderry. I shopped my own Groceries, dabbled in more than my own pastas and cook Sabzis and Meat & Poultry variants.

But that wasn’t it..

I was not cool! I had not burnt out, or been hospitalised. “Dignity” was on the wall in the mental hospital where I recited Gayatri and have given up on the opposition. A healer had told the Shaman within me: Never tell them what you see!

But therapy had transgressed my mortal coil with Visions that have my Literacy to accompany new confidence of The Spirit finding her mate opening up to new vistas.

Expression was not the problem with Experience at Oxford. Innocence of failure was.

So I have long been a conscientious consumer and puzzled Bennetton’s unity against the backdrop of my fragmentariness. I doubted the Wonderbra Advert on Oxford Street with my spiritual best buddy for want of a Wonderwoman to explain WTF I had done wrong to deserve that!

And the Globalised-ly defined protested the distressed I was yet to fathom and Being and Becoming slept with enemies – So I explain the experience of ‘Bardos’ from Buddhism in my verse I hope you read one day. They honour Death and say that the suffering of others only makes sense if the world works.

People in Influential positions posted hope like the Hula Hoop and it would have been nice if they did not define Depression while the news had weather girls!

And shopping is not the grocery list any more. We need more. Our achievement is tethered and Tactics by Tax Tacticians is not even mythical in grand narratives. In America, Obama has taken a belting for what is normality every year by The Treasury with a Red Briefcase on Budget Day. At least his eloquence worked.

The bloke, however, is not the needful lover anymore. And Smartphones will outlive ‘The Apprentice’ (IMDb) approach to E.M.F. soon in TED Talks on their effect on brains.

But that was not the cause of monied woes. Isn’t that an old wives tale of power and destiny? I have posted on fashion and Power elsehwhere.

Too many Rogue Buddhists have slipped sardonic shame for Shane (IMDb) and forgetfulness under Yoga mats and Sex has missold Self-Help. Nothing is forever. So why so much pressure on a self-employed reputaton?

What if a friend had said ‘I feel sad because I am broke’?… And that was after your Hatha Yoga Session. Was there a pose to replace that brainstem?
