The Pessimist

Am I really pessimistic, indifferent in my writings? So the Publishers say. I thought I was a realist, although for myself I suppose I'm a misanthropist, meaning: a loner, recluse, cynic malcontent with the world, but Pessimist? I don't get it. Well I guess I will live with it, and be unpolished for a while, the Man of Woe, that is me. The telegram said, they liked the draft, but I needed to take all the gloom out of it. That is like saying your mother passed away, and at the funeral, you're not allowed to give her deep sympathy, or allowed to say out loud her name, or in this case for me to print the gloom of the world at hand. The Will of the world is dead! Life is a despair, the only victory in life is war. And the victim is never wrong because if you tell him so, you're one dead duck, along with the many. The last publisher out of forty, said I only saw misery and unrest in the world. Somehow life left scars and deep reservoirs, but I made them too deep. He said I said 'Life was meaningless...

The Trials and Ordeals of a Cornered Pope ((Pius XII) (An Essay/Theme))

Pope Pius XII is an interesting subject, especially during his papacy, during WWII. His actions can be viewed as having potentially multiple meanings. We even have to step into the phenomenal, or unbelievable consciousness of the pope, and the human condition of the times. His life during this brief time can be viewed metaphorical, as he resists the Nazi occupation in his own way, not the way we might have done it but his way. At one point he sees, ultimately sees, he has no control, and death, perhaps irrational for the observer outside the walls of the Vatican, irrational, but for the living under the Nazi regime, inevitable. Italy and Germany were in a like manner, stepbrothers, figuratively speaking (and the Vatican was at the edge of their horizon): For Pope Pius XII, the philosophical of the absurd was taking place. He sees a regime who can and will, and is killing at will, indifferently killing the whole of humanity that gets in its way, although there are exceptions, but few. The Jew per near a complete genocide, the Catholics took their share of hardships also, respectively, murder was the name of the game, or sentenced to prison, condemned...

Worlds Beyond (Part II of II) Last Voyage From Mars

I am caught in-between a trans-dimensional vortex, carried by a gravitational wave ((GW) (as if inside the wave's pocket)), inside a semicircular vessel, caught in the pull of the wave at the speed of light. I will never age at this speed, and now the wave just passed Earth, I fear I shall be on my way to the end of the universe, what end is anyone's guess. Who's to say, perchance this was the very wave that created the Big Bang, after matter and antimatter collided, making it 14.5 billion years old. Or perhaps it is some wave that was created a billion years ago from some supernova, or two black holes with their horrid gravitational pull, plunging into one another, and creating a giant blast. But here I am all the same. It would seem I was asleep a long while, perhaps this vessel was pulled off its course, on my way to Earth from Mars, like snatching a hitchhiker off a highway, at full speed; thus my vessel adjoined with the GW, in what one might refer to as transcendental, or awe-inspiring space. Now lost in its supernal realm, for how long, no one knows!

Worlds Beyond & the Hyperborean Mythos Arch Devil Belphegor's Diamond Planet

Copernicus, also known as Planet 55 Cancri e, or the Diamond Planet, twice the size of earth, some forty-light years away, that has an orbit so close to the sun, its 2000 c at its surface. The planet takes eighteen hours to circle its sun. Its mass, eight times that of earth, and it is rich in carbon, inferring rich in graphite, coal, limestone and petroleum and above all, diamonds, all commercially important molecules for earth. It is said, the smallest diamond is the size of a large thumb, and the largest-of which are many-the size of a five to six foot stalagmite. The problem for Donald Rump Olton, billionaire industrialist, is that its atmosphere is much too condensed with hydrogen cyanide and prussic acid, thus poisonous, and no water, and very hot. Hence, one can see with the clap of an eye, this planet is for the most part, sealed off to any earthly invasion. Or is it?

Worlds Beyond The Mineralogist: Night Termination! (McGee, Part 1X)

What makes Earth special? The rule of war is to avoid hitting hospitals, the International Criminal Court calls it a War Crime to do so. Now there is a new war game going on, the rule of proportionality has been altered, which says, even if the enemy is in the hospital, you cannot kill them, because the greater number will be civilian casualties, thus how do you kill the enemy then, when they are hiding in the very place, that is given sanctuary? The Mineralogist has come up with a new weapon of war, 'Tight War Termination Killers'. Prof George Bacon, Mineralogist and Entomologist (the study of insects), was assigned to the project called: 'Night Cessation' (or `Night Termination`); for the United States Defense Department.

The Hyperborean Mythos, The Lost Dark Book Of Islam

I read of it first in a journal of antiquities, the strange 'Dark Book,' which was said to be the draft of the first Qur'an, before it was put together some time in the mid-7th Century, but what others have now called, a strangeness of an eccentric clergy of his day, has been brought to my attention. He apparently lived a life of curiously and died in a grisly and mysterious fashion, he was the scribe of the so called 'Lost Dark Book of Islam', and in lack of his name we shall call him, with a capital letter, the 'Copyist.' It was my fortune to have access to this nameless scribe, the Copyist, to find the original editing of this so-called, 'Lost Dark Book... ' was a marvel. And to my understanding only a half dozen of these books ever existed, as for the Copyist, he wrote the original (with side notes, the side notes being the most important to the discovery)...

The Hyperborean Mythos Amsterdam: Deserted Orchard (1975)

I entered the room with my twin boys. Like the hall and hearth downstairs, it contained the furniture necessary for the most meager hospitality of a guesthouse in Amsterdam. It was 11:00 P.M., it had an iron bed with a brown-drab-colored spread over it, a wooden chair next to it, a hat-rack and a washbasin, nearby. The walls were a dirty pale yellow, and naked of any pictures, a nail here and there, short and rustic, a sinister looking room. I fed the boys a ham and cheese sandwich, they were per near four years old. Then I put them to bed, "What can I do until I'm tired?" I asked myself; a rhetorical question perhaps. Horrified by the idea of being shut up in this room sober. I paced the room shrugged my shoulders, it was fall of 1975, and there was a chill in the Amsterdam air.

The Hyperborean Mythos Land of the Forbidding

In the deep twilight when snow covered shrubs look like ghosts, and wandering deer look like monsters, beyond the cities and the farmlands, the farthest regions of Minnesota forests, and to the Canadian Arctic, nothing seems to appear in its right perspective; everything is too large, too tall, too wild, too ugly, too far, too near, too fierce, thus one never sleeps at ease in the wild of winter nights in the land of gray strangeness, in the land of the forbidding. When the northern lights appear, never are they the same, they, like the cold forest wavers and shimmers like the crossbones on a black flagged ship at sea. The Inuit's know the land and its old legends. Its ghosts, death, for death is common in this place, should you make the wrong, move, turn, step, choice, you must live with its results.

Worlds Beyond Unleashed Asteroid ((2019-Earth Bound) (With Dr. G.B. McGee))

At the Louisiana Space Station, Dr. G.B. McGee, has just released to the radio, and television networks, information concerning the strike of an Asteroid that hit the Gobi Desert today. What had taken place-prior to this event-was that a supernova (a star/sun) explosion, took place in one of the one-hundred-galaxies that can be seen behind the Milky Way, causing a gradational wave, which has been traveling at the speed of light for some time now, Dr. McGee has separated this wave from what is called an electromagnetic radiation, whereas he has determined it to be a GW (gravitational waves), on the grounds it does not interact with matter. It has traveled throughout the universe from those galaxies, unimpeded through the universe, and has caused an asteroid to wobble off its course, the size being 0.6 - miles wide and it has hit ground in the Gobi Desert, had it been a six mile wide asteroid, the size of the one that wiped out all the dinosaurs eons ago, well it would be a different story-McGee has inferred to his audience: he has told the radio audience as well as television...

The Hyperborean Mythos Strange Days ((Mantaro Valley Region) (Huancayo, Peru))

His house was old-old, adobe style, high up in the Andes, way in the deep back woods of the township called, 'The 9th of July,' with its high uncountable umbrella like eucalyptus trees shading the old winding dirt roads, clustered all the way to the cemetery, a half mile away. It had a faint miasmal odor which clings about houses that have stood too long. We all thought his house dated back to the days prior to or shortly thereafter those days Catalina Huanca, no joke, somewhere along 1624 A.D., thereabouts. The old man, Juan Pablo was never too glad to see a visitor, or for that matter, a trespasser, although we had a curiosity relationship-he and I- myself being a poet, and he liked poetry, and being a gringo, and not of the area per se, although the Poet Laureate of the township. Plus I always brought him a bottle of Chicha de Jora.

The Hyperborean Mythos Agonies of the Grave ((Burial Before Death) (Huancayo, Peru))

THE conqueror worm, the bleak and blackness of night, the damp soil, clinging onto one's garments, oppression of the lungs, the embrace of the narrow coffin, the body now entombed for evermore. The lack of air, fumes, the grass above one's head, and above that a moon, and sun and stars, galaxies, the universe, you are in a new world, beyond. Your friends are at home sleeping, drinking, laughing, all informed of your death, yet not your fate; that they are uninformed of. You are buried alive, in a hopeless position. Appalling it may be, an intolerable horror, an agonizing dream, as nothing half so scornful, but it is real, and somehow you must tolerate the burden of that reality.

The Hyperborean Mythos & Worlds Beyond The Treaded From Earth's Underworld

I have seldom been able to resist the allurement of a new city, to explore its beaches, it its main quarter, its rocky structures by the sea; in 1998, last year, about the same time, July, I went to Tangier, this year its it's Algiers. I am on vacation from the Los Andes Space Center high up in the Andes of Peru where I work as a scientist, I am kind of an astrophysics technician, along with several comrades that work in the same area. As I said, this all took place yesterday. When climbing on some of the rocky structures by the sea, to browse around for a few minutes having come upon this mystery, brief as it was, and thereafter had an idle forenoon to ponder on it, as now I write it out on journal paper for posterity sake. Actually the group I was with, I stepped away from them for a while. Sometimes the slow and smooth mediocrity of life gets to me, being a scientist, and I had brought nothing to read ahead of time, and talking with strangers on the bus, I got so hurriedly and grotesquely tired of miner chitchat I could almost...

Previously he had visited Algiers in 1998, when he had his run with Agaliarept, Henchman from Tartarus, Lord of Five Legions. Again he was on a tour, vacation from his work at the Los Andes Space Station high up in the Andes of Peru. He parted his group, just inside the Kasbah, to go out on his own, as often he did. He liked to feel his feet on those old cobblestone streets. Should you have stood on the upper wall of one of a two or three story building, you would have seen a yellow lighthouse overlooking the sea, the plateau streets below the hills, to the upper part of the city proper.
