Space and the Egocentric Maniac - I

Slow downhe reminded himselfslow down

The journey has been long

arduous and painfulEmpty your head of all elseexceptthe feel of your breathmoving into and out of your lungsTime dissolves, melts intoa perpetual nowHis consciousnessbecomes one with time and timebecomes one with consciousnessHis head  swellsto the size of Jupiterand in ita new universe is  born

Awesome Leonard!

I absolutely love the " His head swelled to the size of Jupiter and in it a new universe was born". Almost God-like in the intensity! Wow! Respectfully, Rett: "Next time you think you're perfect, walk on water." If government is the answer, it's a stupid question!
