Living Room 10.25.11 B.Y.O.D – 7P

Have you had an absurd or incomprehensible dream lately? Rich subconscious secrets and great poems cleverly hide behind and between dream images. Often the more absurd the inviting dream and its connections are, the more rich meaning resides. It is our linear mind that balks from the fearful yearnings of the dreaming soul. Please bring a recent or past baffling dream, the more absurd the better, and be ready to unlock it with an existential dream exercise. Be prepared to step back into the cosmological mêlée of you dream and see what happens. Joe Chiveney is your facilitator.

Got Weird Dreams?

Writers of all ages and skill levels gather Tuesdays at 7P to read new work, the work of someone else or to just be in the engaging company of other writers. Your donation of $5 helps SPLAB continue our programming. Please bring 8 copies of the work you plan to read. If you do not bring copies, they are available for 10c.

Living Room happens in the new SPLAB in the Cultural Corner at 3651 S. Edmunds. (Look for the SPLAB sign on the wall and come inside.) We’re 2 blocks from the Columbia City Link Light Rail Station. (Parking is available on the school grounds.)

What end does politics serve? Surely it must serve ends beyond itself. Why seek greater bioregional autonomy? For self-determination. Yes, but what purpose in turn shall that value serve? None some may say, it’s self-justifying. But then it becomes an absolute unto itself which can be used to justify many different things, some questionable. Why not come right out at the beginning and say what you’re really for?
The primary purpose of seeking greater bioregional identity and autonomy is to serve the life of the place and its people as a whole. Indeed, the primary purpose of Politics is to serve the life of the place and its people on many levels in an equitable and sustainable way.
