(2005) There is no final frontier.
There are no ultimate frontiers. There are just frontiers.
To claim finality, to claim an ultimate,
is only to expose the limited range of one's comprehension,
one's imagination and one's vision.
Final or ultimate frontiers are a limited comprehension
of the immense scheme within which we are submerged, as participants.
We are submerged in the scheme of evolving counterentropic life
and its related coevolving intelligence.
Life is systemically open, changing, dynamic and variant.
We each situate at our own frontier.
We each bear responsibility for our own frontier.
We may arrange to have adjacent, contiguous or common frontiers.
The organization of life's frontiers is itself a frontier.

The Eighth and Ninth Days of Creation
(1972) A yellow-orange scintillating beam shone upon me.
At first, to my eyes, it was diffuse.
I looked into the beam, holding my arm across my brow.
I squinted through slits which remained between the lids of my eyes.
The beam seemed to intensify, to focus.
It intensified and focussed, first beside me, creating a torsion,
which acted upon something besides my body.

Submerged in Spirit A Physiology of the Spirit
(2006) "I have something to say. It may even be something someone wants to hear or to read. What I have to say is about masterpieces not being in style. It is also about change and adaptation, about platforms and closed doors behind and open doors ahead, about cheese and shocks, shuddering and falling into nets. But what I have to say is about much more than all that: I jumped. I leaped. That jumping, that leaping, constitutes an ANACLYSM, a sudden upbuilding, versus cataclysm, a sudden destruction or downfall!"
