Seattle Review (e-mailed to the SP official website address on Friday the 13th, full moon, 2000)


OK, so I have seen you now.
I don’t know if you ever received this or ever looked at it, but there was this blue prism paper envelope delivered to you in Seattle. I don’t have a clue what happened to it. I’ve enclosed the contents in the folder. It was my support for why I said I was June. It was your explanation for everything, and given where you appear to stand, I actually think it was timely and important.
So I’m e-mailing this just because I like to follow through. If I attempt something I use any options that appear, even lousy ones.
The other thing is, if you did get the documents, then they need some follow up. They’re out of date. They were written, after all, before Seattle. One night can make a big difference. I’ve been faced with split decisions that changed the course of everything.
Now I’ve been faced with you. Sorry for assuming such a personal tact, seeing as I’ve never met you.
You made that point in Seattle. I could not have been further from knowing you. 

Thank you for becoming my worst nightmare. Now I know what it is and I know it can’t mess with me. You know I walk into things with my eyes wide open. I would never have met you if I didn’t think I was fully equipped and I spent a long time equipping myself. You are very bad to combine with drugs. 

I used to question my perspective until I put it through a supreme test. Now I’m just going to speak my mind. To my mind you were doing two things. One, you asked people what they were really there for. If they had come for any of the higher elements in your work, thought they could enter some sort of universality, or ‘one’, you effectively demolished that by demonstrating that the trip was your dictate. If they had previously made the mistake of defining themselves in you (what they were seeking was in your words, they had not established them for themselves first), they were fucked. They stood on the outside while you sunk that puppy into oblivion. You left them wondering whether anything they felt was real or solipsist bullshit, or they sunk themselves into their singular perception, which is solipsist bullshit. Either way they felt nothing at all, for nothing they felt was real, or it was impossible for them to establish it as real.
Or else they’d come for your darker elements and that is where you took them. Really they were defining themselves by what they’d chosen in you, the same as defining themselves in terms of themselves. Which is scary when you realize the potency. You know the thing is they wouldn’t even know the significance or the difference. Which I suppose is your point.
I don’t know what made you do this, true nature, bitterness at the way the chapter has closed, or just to prove you could. Maybe a challenge, popping the big question. Maybe not giving a fuck.
After I got home I knew I’d already answered you, I’d delivered the document that countered your sallies ahead of time. It's called ‘The Sanctification Principle’. See, I figure I was the only person present who could respond as follows: I did not define myself in terms of a reflection, it was transformation. I never defined myself in terms of you. And had found a way to prove it to oneself. There is no fucking way you can say I assumed love as a device for power when I gave up everything to avoid forming a power base, I’d suicide first. There’s no fucking way you can say I got into this to dress coffins for souls when its sole proving dynamic, the one that verified its existence, was redemption. It was not a crime in assuming divine attributes because I attest that eternal life lies only in the Grace of Christ. Everything about it attests to the existence of God.   
Perhaps in my centrism I couldn’t foresee that it wasn’t me who was going to shut it down in order to cope, you would do it for me. You certainly made me realize my arrogance, that I’d finally made the slip of assuming things that were only potential, and I’d always been so careful about that. How perilously close I’d come.
I didn’t realize that the reason I was containing the whole definition inside the redemptive pattern was to protect myself against you. (That’s what The S.P. document is about, the redemptive process.)
As for my proposal in Machina, (my version that is), I’m glad I resolved it down to one point, one yes or no, even if you destroyed it. It removes a lot of dilemmas for me. I’m left with no more questions. I am free.

I’ll tell you something else. Whether you read anything I’ve written to you, or comprehend it or believe it, you’ve proven the link to me, as I have proven it to myself. I know because of how deeply you delve into my world, the one I have inside myself. How you say things back to me. We are as connected as the mindlinked pair in the plates.
I questioned what it meant, what we meant to each other, what it was, enough to make me come forward, which is something I was convinced I’d never do. It was such a risk to put myself forward, just to have you perform your level best to destroy it. Makes choosing you totally meaningless, doesn’t it? You have made the circle of my isolation complete. Didn’t know you were its final architect? You are. I do not know how things will follow now. I left this communication in the hands of God. Only God could see to whether or not you read it. Based on how I retained everything inside the redemption, there are still a lot of potential outcomes, despite your being my worst nightmare come true.  
I will say that you have ended my deepest dream, completely destroyed it. I’m not actually upset, I’d relegated my deepest dream to childhood fantasy long ago and dismissed it, it was a tremendous shock to have it brought back by someone else, made me hope it was possible.
It’s hardly a first, shattering my dreams. It is the summation of my history with men. The ones I have allowed close enough have always taken their best shot at destroying me, as inadvertently as this. They never succeeded. (XTC – I’m the man who killed love. Now what do you think of that? – It’s not relevant. Big fucking deal. Looks like I go through everything in triplicate.)

In Seattle you made yourself the last person in the universe I’d ever want to meet. It goes a lot further than having just destroyed my trust, though I’ve been betrayed so deeply before, perhaps I never would trust. I arrived with my own personal insurance. Fortunately. I know even though you access ‘my’ universal awareness, I am in no way responsible for your actions with it. Seeing as I defined myself as the opposite.
When I saw you in Seattle, before you took it down, I had already let you go. Meaning assuming there is a link (there is a lot to support this), I let it go because I decided it was better not to affect you personally. This is what I’d always decided. It took a hell of a lot to convince me to try and contact you, gestalt events. I’ve never wanted to disturb your life. I especially don’t want to now. I think you are happy and I want you to be happy.
Sometimes I wish you had never accessed me, ever. None of you.
I am separated from you and I am alone.
The chapter is closed. The romance is finished. One way or the other it was going to happen; I could not function there, the possibilities hurt me too much. I tend to go through things ahead of time, once there’s a conclusion, there’s not point suffering over spilt milk. But it can sure fuck with you ahead of time before the pitcher actually breaks, when there appears to be a range of outcomes, maybe the pitcher will sprout wings and fly instead. It never does. Only inside the universal awareness is there transformation. 
As for what I wanted to change, let me say it in general rather than the specific. I wanted the universal awareness to be articulated between its members so they could affirm its love. You have no comprehension of the compulsions that have forced my silence.
There was a connection between the souls and it was very real. I know because I’ve been aware of it and operating in it for more than seven years, and it has always responded, in a lot of people, and it grew. It operated in the same dynamic as a feedback loop. The reason for this was because I was operating in it based on belief in the potential, the possibility, -faith, not sensory awareness. I believed I could reach you, I couldn’t sense you. So the only way I knew, could see my tracks in the shore, as it were, was when it came back to me in the music. I used it in my reception of Grace. I used it in accessing Grace for others. It was the only thing that could have saved me and could have saved them. This was the only way it could have happened. It is finished. I mean having proven it in a sanctifying dynamic, I no longer need the correspondence for reliance, it is not something I want, your heavy metal machine. You have any other subjects you want to take up?
It has reached the apex where it had to be met or let go. I accepted this outcome. That doesn’t mean it wasn’t important to me, just because I let it go, just because this was its only form of expression. It was more important to me than anything in existence.
I will not mourn, under the circumstance that is destructive, in that sense I will not miss you, besides you’ve made it so I could never miss you. Actually I have already been through this. The pain was in fear of the end. I sensed this would be your last. This was the only way I knew you and now it is gone. But as we know our ends are our begins; it’s begun before. So now you know, it was the only path of articulation, and now it is finished, and I am saying good-bye. This is my way of answering, telling you it was real.
