Zen cat

Zen Cat by Gobblin'Goblin

what's that, zen cat?
last night you were tellin' me
how it is and how it isn't
bliss, your eternal purr

you said that my problems
are all my own doing
that i choose my illusion
no complainin' no more

and now that it's morning
and you're the one cryin'
at me, like you actually need
...
food, ha!

take that, zen cat
realities a bitch
and so are you
well sometimes anyway

i kid
love you poopie!
(a tribute to Papaw the cat)

so...WTF is Gobblin'Goblin?

Gobblin'Goblin is an entity-human conduit complex residing in the bushy regions near Brisbane, Australia.
G'G is an attempt at exorcising the creative forces that have been growing inside this vessel before they start gobblin' him up from the inside out. the goblins demand to be expressed, attempts at suppression have threatened the well-being of our conduit, and although they don't know where it will lead to, it feels right to oblige and engage in the mystery (and really there's no other options).
G'G is an ongoing experimental process, an exploration of consciousness, a tribute to this beautiful universe, an adventure in self-discovery, a cosmic dance which may help this human and hopefully a few others in making sense of this collective experience we call reality, and at the very least have some fun.
so wtf is Gobblin'Goblin? i don't really know, but lets feed it and see where it goes.

the goblins are working on a few sections to share with you in order to impart their nature-wisdom, awaken slumbering goblins inside other human conduits, and infuse our lives with playfulness and the magick that is our birthright. expect to find artwork in all it's forms, practical info for surviving on earth, free seeds and more, so check back for updates soon...

finally, a spontaneous message from the goblins to you:

so are you ready to begin gobblin'goblins?
expect some wierdery but don't be afraid
try not to hold too tightly to the things you "know"
and you'll find this as easy as the games you played
as a child, when you were free
and nothing else mattered
you were the buddha without having to try
you're only relearning what you forgot as you grew
so have fun, this is natural, but it is up to you
to embrace change as it comes
to flesh out your dream bones
to colour the world in your own kinda way
you're a magickian at heart
and that's the way you were born
every word is a spell, so cast what you may
check your thoughts
own your actions
and don't blame us goblins
if you dont like what you see
coz that's your bag, babe, shape your own reality.

globs of goblin bog for the gobs of blog gods

Welcome to the blog of Gobblin'Goblin
a space for externalising the internal goblins
which inhabit the misty mind swamp
of yours truly

stay tuned for more words, pictures and sounds
as the bloggin' goblins make themselves at home
