The arc of the Universe is long, but it bends to form a noose -
justice was never gravity's intent, only repetition's.
Each age pulls the rope tighter, calling it progress.
We mistake the creak of the beam for divine equilibrium.

God dreamt in fractures, and we were born mid-sentence.
No end, just repetition in drag.
The world unfolds like a rusted hinge-
backward, sacred, unashamed.
Light devours light.
And the spiral sings:
"This is not the last breath - just breath becoming."

Nothing sublates-
everything mutates, everything drifts,
everything dies.
The dialectic doesn't resolve-
it gets eaten.
History has no telos,
only teeth...
And Geist?
It limps,
it forgets,
it adapts in panic...
Survival isn't victory-it's what's left when everything else dies.

In an unlikely first I have finished my script and PowerPoint slides for this. With hours to spare. This is unheard of. I fear something has to go wrong… #CosmicPessimism
I’m going to be presenting my paper - ‘Between Aether and Abyss: Cataphatic Sound, Apophatic Silence, and Divinity in Heidegger’ - at the European Centre for Heidegger Studies ‘Heidegger: In the Nearness of the Holy and the Divine’ international Zoom conference, on Sunday 26 January. #PhilSky
