After scanning its face again and again,
I began to scale it, picking my holds
With intense caution. About half-way
To the top, I was suddenly brought to
A dead stop, with arms outspread
Clinging close to the face of the rock
Unable to move hand or foot
Either up or down. My doom
Appeared fixed. I MUST fall.
There would be a moment of
Bewilderment, and then,
A lifeless rumble down the cliff
To the glacier below.
My mind seemed to fill with a
Stifling smoke. This terrible eclipse
Lasted only a moment, when life blazed
Forth again with preternatural clearness.
I seemed suddenly to become possessed
Of a new sense. My trembling muscles
Became firm again, every rift and flaw in
The rock was seen as through a microscope,
My limbs moved with a positiveness and precision
With which I seemed to have
Nothing at all to do.
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of
universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I
reach my hands and play with pebbles of
destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs
reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive
in the universe.

What was most interesting, considering the Alec Baldwin situation, was at the end of this video where the gentleman from the prop weapon company states that “you never use a real, live fire weapon in a movie”. Combined with what is coming out every day concerning the movie set armorer and her lack of professionalism/knowledge/discipline it would seem inevitable she ends up being charged with something along the lines of involuntary manslaughter. While Baldwin will probably be civilly sued for millions, and would be (key words) smart to settle out of court. My 2 cents.
That whole Baldwin thing is so ridiculously ridiculous that I’m almost committed to the notion that it was some sort of strange fate that could compel that piece of shit into the ridiculous situation he is now in. Irony on steroids injected with nitro. His trigger finger killed someone and nothing else matters.
That was very interesting.

Works for me. Don’t youy see it?
“The government lets us have … because the movie industry.”
Curious. Baldwin was supposedly setting up for a shot at the camera, but he cocked and triggered a shot that missed the camera (camera protection, actually) and hit the woman who had been grieving him about the crappy set safety. “Just an accident”. If you believe that, I can get you an option on a bridge in New York, real cheap. His actions were not necessary for the photography setup. He looked upset. What do you expect from an “actor”? Didn’t hurt the equipment, but center punched the uppity broad. “Accident”, my rosey red______.
