HISTRY
OF THE END OF THE WORLD
WE
ARE ALL PASSENGERS
Traffic
was abundant at the Cross Roads on this summerday in spring.
Pedestrians, cyclists, bikers, cars, vans, trucks and even a quad.
Strangely enough the cars and trucks claimed their rights of passage
and frustrated the cyclist, the walkers, users of rollators,
invalid-scooters and whelchairs. Survival of the Biggest,
And
people taking their dogs for a walk. Lots of them all kind of dogs
and people from all ranks and levels of life.
Unknowingly
they were all attracted to this spot, a powerpoint in this town where
a statue depicts the main character of a world famous local writer.
Who,
by the way left his hometown at 18, never to return and moved to
Amsterdam. A house where he had lived as a child, stood nearby.
A
powerpoint is a cosmic focuspoint of ancient power and forgotten
rituals.
Once
this crossing marked the entrance to a religious area of worship and
prayer. They had, coming from the North, through the gates, passed
several waterways, reached the final bridge leading to the holy
island and the Mountain. To the left the ceremonial ridgeway opened
up, leading to the Holy of Holiest, up the hill.
But
this is by no means on the minds of the people with their vehicles
and dogs. They are here to buy and sell, earn money or spending it.
Even a dog is taxed in these days.
By
consuming they try to escape from the stress and pressure at home.
I
sit there and watch. Nobody goes left to enter this stairway to
Heaven. There is where the answers are kept, so desperatedly needed
in these desperate times. All are circling around after material
purposes and finding no way out.
