Don't ask humans for certain definitions!
The headlines being how they are, I decided to try a modest work around for the customary music group search response for the idiom "third eye blind" in order to get something like a sturdy definition for the much journalistically bandied term..."woke"...and behold, up came this well worded answer from artificial intelligence via quora.com and ChatGPT...
What does it mean when someone is third eye blind?
ChatGPT
"The term 'third eye blind' is often used to describe someone who is unable to see or understand the...

Channeling Shadows
In the dim-lit chamber, the air grows thin.
The psychographer draws the specter in.
Quill in hand, trembling, eager to scribe.
Echoes of Poe dark whispers imbibe.
The raven stirs, though fleshless it stays.
Its shadow looms eternal in haze.
"Speak," pleads the vessel, a soul unwinded.
Through fingertips flows the long-silenced mind.
Words spill forth, grotesque and divine.
Lines of sorrow, of death’s cold design.
Each phrase etched in despair’s black tongue.
An ode to the lost, the morbid unsung.

The Poetic Universe
High above clouds blanketing a sleeping earth
pale horizon fades into the vast universe
Tiny dots of brilliance, so small to my eyes
possess magnitude that baffles my limited mind
If miniscule is enormous, then my big problems are small
as distance and eternity dwarf them all
A fresh perspective on our differences unfolding
as ancient light gains new meaning upon our beholding
The Creator of stars and planets and oceans
saw fit to equip me with words and emotions
So this gift I’ll employ to share a truth with you: ...

Love to a Gunfight
"We're bringing love to a gunfight."
~ Janiva Magness
Your enemies are your greatest teachers
—the ones who step on your triggers
revealing wounds that haven't yet healed
Each lesion that re-lacerates history
is an opportune time to decide
how we're going to react or reply
There are no coincidences in life
nor mistakes, only experience
lessons to spiritually advance
Thank those who perceive you
their adversary—their gift
is the greatest...

Deja Vu
Take me beyond
deja vu,
beyond
The social script;
show me
something
I have never seen,
Something
supreme
O Queen
Of moon beam
frequency -
frequently
radiant,
Adjacent
Nascent
&
New;
Show me
how you do
what
You do,
Known,
By
only
a
few.

Evil Is My Name
Evil is the mind of the saints, resurrected.
666 is my name; untainted.
Alone at the top, but acquainted,
With all the suffering souls,
The evil of the bottomless pit.
Know me and know my name.
I am here for the fame.
Follow me to the promised land.
Marry me to your reign.
Our power will be seen on a world stage.
Come together
Let's multiply.

Saints And Sinners Week (Halo)
To the world as I humbly bow in respect
The rite of passage to remain standing, whispering to the wind, is not over yet
Don’t try to chain my mind so fast
The beauty of my strength lies in my intelligence, which can never be measured by time, it will always outlast
So, placing your hands on hips, I still rise as I thrive without having to move my lips
Devoid to squeal mundane thoughts, my wisdom befalls in that sweeten, cherished melanin gift
Something to possess, few will never have
Filth is the...

Heaven Takes Away
Back then...
Granny had said that I was a particular child.
How I spent too much time questioning all
of the unreasonable things.
That I was tiresome to her,
when she'd take me to church, and
I wouldn't sit still while listening
to the nonsense of some mortal man
on a stage.
Because I could talk to God anytime,
without that interpreter giving me
his own version.
I'd tell granny, God doesn't see it that way.
She'd just shush me, sometimes handing me
a half-stick of gum...

Counterfeit Imagery
Counterfeit imagery.
Countenance, mystery.
Outer realm symmetry.
Alchemists, listening.
Balances dizzying.
Cloudiness, picturing.
Sound effects distantly.
Challenging, inquiry.
Mouthiness mimicking
Hallowing, sinfully.
Rowdiness willingly.
Shallowness, simile.
Mountainous visiting.
Palaces, glimmering.
Chalices shimmering.
Crowdedness, vividly.
Galloping infantries.
Rallying, infamy.
Callousness chivalry.
Towering, signaling.
Floundering wizardry.

conversion of light
unfurling my soul I wander
breaking barriers as I go
interesting brokenness
leaving bits of myself along the way
in exchange for soul-to-soul contact
a pneuma of attraction
with eyes that flash and then turn low to a faint glow
awaiting the shadows that light
they are and are not observers of mankind
with pleasant greetings
a salutation is given
Crimsin of shade and light
we see your shine
with glitter of their own, I smile
taking my time to acquaint myself
there are some dwellers...

Mabon (and tinned apples)
The website told me to
"Get out in the garden"
but it might have to be
someone else's garden
because I don't have one
(unless you count weeds)
but I'm pretty sure harvesting
the last of someone else's
summer crops is illegal
so I won't be doing that
this year
Though if Mabon comes around
and I happen to be in an apocalypse
the Gods and I might need to have words
because I'm not prepared
and I'm sure crop theft
is absolutely acceptable
under those circumstances
just not...

IMPOTENCY OF LIES
TRUTH
I've never forgotten
the lessons I learned from
the Dharma taught by
Tibetan Buddist priests
in my quest for enlightenment
and reality.
I've recently been resurrecting
and meditating on a principle
related to Yin-Yang, the power
and role of opposites:
There is light and darkness,
Day and night,
Good and evil.
Truth and lies.
Etched in my cranium
are the words from a
teacher:
"A lie has never liberated
anyone, it may make it seem
to be so for a moment, but
in the end, will be...
