gate(less) is a practice, a log, an indulgence, spellwork, meditation, and an invitation to explore and experience the ecstatic adventure of every day. Join us to explore strange new worlds right outside your gate/door
You know I overdid it last weekend? Part of the trap is how good I felt on Monday
The me that was we — has become this new me through the process of concrescence — claimed the only way we could stay in this world was through the strength of our habits
How silly we once were — rather how silly I was — although we is universal — how you dropped out of solution — is wholly your crystallization
I’d like to think — the process was a little like this — with brighter neon colors
Although — if we’re honest with ourselves — it was probably more like this
A tepid arising — barely worthy of a theme song — we all go through it
Not that there is anything wrong with that
Maybe next time when we manifest — a little more razzle-dazzle?
But for now — let’s celebrate being here together!
Much love,

gate(less) where we celebrate — being here — together
This will seem an odd question I expect. In UK cemeteries it is quite common. not pervasive but common enough to be noticeable, to see a grave decorated with items like a can of beer, a football scarf, or a photo of the occupant's car. There's no shortage of angels and similar twee ornaments in the cemetery featured in gate(less). The big metallic spheres are impressive. But no tins of Bud, for example. (Bearing in mind that American beer is so horrible even the dead don't appreciate it).
From time to time a vicar who is above the common herd will ban these icky working class memorials and I wondered if the (very beautiful) gate(less) cemetery has rigorous byelaws of a similar kind.
Where art thou ...
