Archetype of the Rectum
As I sit on the toilet for my morning bowel movement, I often browse through the newspaper. While not the specific focus of this post, such habits are addressed in Man Lessons, the series. This writing is about that 'aha!' experience that comes every so often when coincidence(?) expresses itself in the form of synchronistic vortex.
While achieving my rectal release, I see a picture and article on recent volcanic explosions. Volcanic explosions, I might add, that look remarkably similar to the peristaltic process of which I undergo in the name of biological 'input & output'. Otherwise known as the 'big blow', I am struck by the eerie likeness and power that comes with volcanic and fecal spew.
If there is regularity, then output will be calm and relatively uneventful. With merit and value, just not as actively cathartic. If there is build up, for, say, one day, two days, three weeks, or even six-thousand years, the the blow will have some 'punch'.
Cathartic release will span far beyond the boundaries of what an individual or a collective has prepared.
IS THERE REALLY ANY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SPEW OF VOLCANIC ASH AND THE FECAL SPIT OF AN IMPACTION DISSIPATED?
Embrace Your Rectum.
