The Easter Piggy is a Zen Buddhist

                             For some time I would begin this day Online by shouting to the  World,

                                                                       HE IS RISEN ---   

                                        HALLELUJHA  HALLELUJHA  HALLELUJHA 

                         I am a Believer, always have been,,  even in Times of the severest Anguish and Misery .   

                         Captain Obvious would be EXCEEDINGLY Proud to hear me say, We are in DEEP, FUCKING SHIT .    That >obvious<   CANNOT be denied, but Zen Master Mick Jagger pleads, "What can a poor boy DO ?"    

                         I KNOW that Good, Honest, and Decent Folk want HOPE !!!   I am NO FAN OF HOPE !  >Hope< was the FIRST item placed in Pandora's Box, FIRST because of the Nature of its Essence, its HORROR and its fucking CRUELTY.   

                        Thing is, it is EASTER and HE IS RISEN .  What EXACTLY does the Resurrection MEAN ????? !!!!!    For the MANY,, the Resurrection means Re-Birth -- Regeneration -- Renewal and consequently We are Taught that within these "BIG THREE" >Hope< for a Better Future is somehow GUARANTEED .  It may well be, but I ani't seein' it that Way .   

                       He taught Us that when He died He would RETURN and in this I had GREAT >>>FAITH<<<  .   It is GREAT FAITH that I offer to supplement Hope, and dare I say, to SUPPLANT it .

                       So "What can a poor boy DO ?"   He can >>>KEEP THE FAITH <<<  !!!
