With optimistic expectations
I started on my explorations,
And swore to move without a swerve
Along my sinasoidal [sic] curve.
Alas! I knew how it would end;
I've mixed the cycle and the trend,
And fear that, growing daily skinner,
I have at length become non-linear,
I wander glumly round the house
As though I were exogenous.
And hardly capable of feeling
The difference 'tween floor and ceiling.
I scarcely now, a pallid ghost,
Can tell ex ante from ex post;
My thoughts are sadly inelastic,
My acts incurably stochastic.

From the Peace Institute yearbook of 1914.
|
* The most profound secrets lie not wholly in knowledge, said the poet. They lurk invisible in that vitalizing spark, intangible, yet as evident as the lightning—the seeker's soul. Solitary digging for facts can reward one with great discoveries, but true secrets are not discovered—they are shared, passed on in confidence from one to another. The genuine seeker listens attentively. No secret can be transcribed, save in code, lest it—by definition—cease to be. This Book of Whispers collects and encodes more than one hundred of humankind's most cherished secrets. To be privy to the topics alone is a supreme achievement, as each contains and nurtures the seed of its hidden truth. As possessor and thereby guardian of this knowledge, may you summon the courage to honor its secrets and to bequeath it to one worthy. |

This song offers a major twist on vampire lore, turning everything inside out and upside down so as to reveal a new perspective (in the tradition of creativity stimulation techniques and esoteric customs). Various spiritual traditions acknowledge beings on earth who, as highly evolved souls, chose to incarnate so as to help humanity carry the burdens of life. Of course, Buddhists call these beings bodhisattvas, Hindus call them Devas, Christians refer to saints and angels, and so on. These evolved souls incarnate into human form and assist others by taking on their darkness until those people are able to process it on their own. Over millennia of reincarnations, each bodhisattva/saint takes on a massive amount of darkness (even earth-sized). The darkness doesn't technically weigh anything, but it's a burden nonetheless, and here's the thing: the thick layers of other people's darkness begin to hide the saint's own angelic light, so people can't see the saint's true nature but rather see a twisted, distorted, very dark image. Misunderstood, persecuted people from various minority cultures will grasp this phenomenon all-too-well. What if vampires, seen as the incarnation of evil, were actually saints who take on their so-called victims' darkness and grant eternal life (freeing the souls from the cycle of rebirths)? What if vampires were understood to live only at night because they are so shadowed by the darkness they carry for others? Of course, the only way to free oneself of a burden of shadows is to expose the darkness to light — an instant, automatic fix. Mightn't an angel (viewed by lesser-evolved or otherwise unseeing souls as a vampire) possibly fear disburdening all the carried darkness, lest that possibly violate the divine contract to help humanity? So these angels seem eternally bound to the night, but in fact they can free themselves by simply tapping back into the godly light that was theirs before the earth was even formed. Given that philosophical background, here are the lyrics with bracketed commentary:
Under black light we are glowing, gloaming.
[The song begins with a seeming oxymoron, "black light." Ultraviolet is invisible to the eye, and the song is about qualities of vampires that are invisible to others. The vampire glows under black light, the meaning of which will become clearer as the song progresses—in the seeming blackness of night, there is yet an inner glow, like the little white circle ensconced in the black half of the Yin/Yang symbol.]
Those of us who bear the burden of others' darkness get aura-ed in gloom, seeming unilluminated. Inner radiance is hidden, unseen.
[Here we learn that the vampire is less a creature of darkness than a creature /in/ darkness. The darkness—crucially /other/ people's darkness—hides the vampire's inner light, his true nature.]
Though the carried shadows span the earth's circumference they don't weigh anything--not much; still they exert a force.
[Of course a shadow isn't technically heavy, yet it can be a pressure or strain on the one handling it.]
The least we could do
Undertake the pain
[This refers to the bodhisattva/saint's voluntary mission to help humanity.]
Gravid with the dark
[The word gravid, literally "pregnant," alludes to the cycle of rebirth while also hinting at being buried (grave) under the darkness.]
Accepting sorrows
Shadows will accrue
[Darkness accumulates with the hardships of the 3D world.]
Happening again
Another birthmark
[For the incarnated angel, rebirths are part of the Buddhistic Wheel of Life until the angel's work is done and he reascends.]
Archaic morrows
[The word "morrow" is itself archaic, but this also refers to lifetimes of sunrises in a seemingly eternal mission to assist humanity.]
If sunrise should disburden us
Would our travail have been in vain?
[Only light can dispel a shadow and release the bodhisattva from the burden of humanity's sorrows. Yet, would dropping the load negate the mission? That is the bodhisattva's paradoxical situation.]
According to angles of view
["Angles" is a subtle play on "angels.]
Mistaken for Nosferatu
[The angel is demonized as a vampire like Nosferatu, whose name is the archaic precursor to "vampire."]
Or some Orlok
[Another reference to Nosferatu, with a hint at the word "warlock."]
Władysława
[The Polish cognate of "Vlad," in feminine form.]
What's in a name?
[The following list of vampire names from literature and film of course serves as a litany, since these figures are now seen in their angelic nature. (And doesn't this help to explain the general public's fascination with vampires? Surely vampires don't spark fascination because people truly relate to evil, horror, and tragedy. Instead, mightn't people instinctively, unconsciously sense the angels behind the deadly masks?)] Lestat d'Lioncourt

Whatchamacallit
Demonize, if you must
We'll bear that darkness
[How others label the bodhisattva is ultimately none of the bodhisattva's business. The work of bearing humanity's darkness goes on.]
We'll endure night endless
Encloak inwardness
[The bodhisattva suffers seemingly eternal night; the carried darkness, like a vampire's classic cloak, enshrouds his inner light.]
Just let go, so they say
[The bodhisattva has heard the advice, "Let go and let God."]
Burgeon in verdure
[The advice has been to let go of the dark burden and simply flourish in the green life of earth. "Get back to nature!" "Go green!"]
Our specs are rose hued
[But the bodhisattva doesn't see the green so well, partially because he isn't tied to the illusions of the 3D world and also because he wears the "rose-colored glasses" of optimism for humanity.]
Bloody well endure
[The rose-color of the glasses here ties to the blood associated with vampires. The bodhisattva's primary objective is to persevere with the burden of the mission.]
