Broken in Two

Is goadra gone?

No, she just changed her name; I'll PM you.
Front-Ranger:
I would like to quote from the book "Of One and Many Worlds" by my friend Rayn Roberts (yes, OUR Rayn) which seems very appropriate here.
Where Buddha Sits
In truth buddha-nature is everything, so then,
did buddha-nature play a part in
bombing Nagasaki and Hiroshima, and why
are the histories of the buddhist east
as bloody and as savage
as the war torn christian west?
I have no easy answers
but I offer this.
buddha-nature-nuclear-bomb,
nirvana, a bomb
to the illusion of self. . .
that is what nirvana is.
no suicide,
still a gun to the head of self!
Nature says do, survive, assert, intend--
buddha sees the third eye explode.
a mushroom cloud in your head--
buddha sits in every whole and broken atom.
Penthesilea:
I just reread this whole thread and there's another mention of breaking/broke, which is very obvious, but not mentioned here yet:
The rim of the tire (or whatever it was, depening on what you believe) broke Jack's nose and jaw. :'(
Even further, Annie connects this with Jack's back in the same sentence: "The bead was damaged somehow and the force of the explosion slammed the rim into his face, broke his nose and jaw and knocked him unconscious on his back.

She did it on purpose. Which is why it's a masterpiece.
