It's a great poetry, which penetrates
deeply into your mind and shaked it
thoroughly like electroshock. It gives
your perception of the pain, of the
global pain of other people, the whole
humankind, and the whole universe. But
in the same time it somehow makes you
stronger and ... wiser. |

I spent nearly an hour just looking

with beards kissing, and the
anthropological sites you covered from
sweat lodges, healing, monoliths,
and the phallus in Christian art that
is not widely covered in our art
history classes!
It was a delight to run across some
content and an engaged mind.
I have since returned and done quite a

your Zen poetry, a surprise because I
have been studying Vajrayana

The photos are wonderful, and I am
amazed that this is all the work of one

revisit Ireland and get round some of
the many places I haven't managed to
visit yet.
I live on the Isle of Bute which has
lots of neolithic and Bronze Age
archaeology as well as Iron Age sites
with possibly Irish connections and
Early Christian foundations with
definite Irish connections. We think we
have great monuments but yours are

I wish to Thank Tim of Washington State, USA for including
some inportant things I failed to mention in my comment about the
Sweat Lodge (Inipi). It does represent the womb of Earth Mother
and a rebirth of spirit and body. It is called a minideath by some.
A place to sacrafice a little for all that we receive. A small death
of the old to a spiritual newness and connection with all things
in Creation. There were and are Sweat Lodges made of stone, a sapling
frame covered traditionally with hides, with blankets and/or tarps.
Te tradtions vary from Native Nation to Native Nation but it all
means the same for cleansing and spiritual awareness and connections
with the good spirits. Thanks again Tim! Safe Journeys and Peace

First--congrats on a truly awesome

before I realized your delightful
butterflies were following my mouse!!!
I would like to use the image of the
Leganny portal tomb in my book to be
published commercially this year (I
hope). The book, Beyond the Bridge,
deals with early settlers in Ireland---
how they came, how they survived the
floods at the end of the last great ice
age, how (muc later) they built passage
tombs & chiseled the first accurate
calendars in stone at Knowth.
The referenced image would fit in the
chapter which covers various types of
tombs in Ireland.
Thank you in advance for your kind
consideration. I will reference your
site and caption the photo as you wish.

that doesn't leave me behind on congratulating

I will like to write to you as a writer myself a
little poem that i translated. Please don't
laugh, because I know it's very poor, but it's
the best i can do for now.
There, far away in the valley
where the first light of the sun
caresses the grass
I want to lye my body
to close my eyes
peacefully die.
There, on the high mountain
covered with snow
virgin, very white
I want my breath to let go
from my chest
to go its way
There, on the straight field
where the first flowers have sprung
the first spring has brought
I want to have wings
to fly, to go
and not come back
There, over the sea of midnight
where the light of the moon
loves my image
I want to calm my soul
when the baby waves
caress my heart.
Thank you again. And please keep up the good work.

Anthony,
In 1954 Allen Ginsberg wrote a
beautiful poem entitled "On Burroughs
Work". You will no doubt be familiar
with these frank and passionate
sentences...
?The method must be purest meat,
and no symbolic dressing,
actual visions & actual prisons
as seen then and now?
A naked lunch is natural to us,
we eat reality sandwiches,
But allegories are so much lettuce,
Don?t hide the madness.?
Much of what I read on this website
resounds with a similar sense of
frankness and passion. For this, I
must admit to being quite envious. Your
endeavour is what I sometimes merely
dream of. In particular, your Maxims
resonate with my own thoughts on many
points (differing on others).
Thank you for your autobiographical
notes as they convinced me that, as
Nietzsche puts it:
?It makes all the difference whether a
thinker stands in a personal
relationship to his problems, so that
he possesses in them his destiny, his
necessity and also his greatest
happiness." |

challenge me-- sweathouses in Ireland,
used for what purposes? Other sites are
redundant w.historical & literary facts-
-yours conveys something of a deeper
nature. Thanks
And,please, 1 question: how do you
speculate the dwellings of commoners
in the West of Ireland in the 8th
century were constructed? ( Were there
forests at that time? Did they build
with trees, or stone or wattle & daub?
Were they circular & dome shaped, or
rectagular huts. ) Thanks again

There are currently several excellent

http://www.remen.gr (in Greek)
and http://www.vlachophiles.net (in

Of your pages the most I liked the
essay on Paulinism. Quite a courageous
view you have and I can't say I am not
tempted to really share your radical
perspectives on Christianity...though
when I think of Bulgakov and his
'Master and Marguerita' I'd rather

Dear Anthony Weir,
I was deeply moved by the breadth,
compassion of your poerty but most of
all by the inhate sadness that you
shared.
I must confess to probably belonging to
a `group/label' of the tribe of
humanity for whom your impatience might
be the least hostile epithet, but I may
have totallly misjudged you- Im an
academic who crosses research
boundaries, many of which you would
welcome, e.g. highlighting the early
disturbing evidence of humankinds
poisoning of the planet is now
poisoning ourselves seen in changes in
incidence and mortality of the cancers,
neurological diseases and haemolytic
disorders- but I also have the
affrontary to work in the `mental
health field' - pro bono I should
hasten to add and share with Karl
Jaspers the realisation that "illness I
can treat but to life, I can only
appeal".
My final affrontary, apart from
sincerest admiration and
congratulations on your remarkable work
is to offer, not my evidence based
texts, nor even my first novel King
David:War & Ecstasy, but share for YOU
a poem I wrote for my daughter as we
all share the same Time & Space.
Time & Space and Anthony Weir.
They say light travels 186,390 miles
per second.
In a minuet 11,183,409 miles,
in a year 5,878,000,000,000 miles.
To the best of Human knowledge if we
travel 30 Light years,
Up, Down, Left and Right, East and West
There is No Other LIFE!
Therefore, How Rare,
Unique,
Wonderful,
Marvellous
YOU really are.
Time and Space Transforms our Infinite
Insignificance
into Anthony Weir being Infinitely
Significant.
So Value Yourself and Marvel at Others,
Than with Emanuel Kant be awed by,
"dir bestirnte Himmel uber mir

Additionally, I am greatly interested

who was diagnosed with severe manic-
depression several years ago. As part
of my final thesis documentation, I
want to include some of the
consequences of this disease both in a
visual and written form. Your words
stuck a deep chord in my soul and I
feel that at last I found someone who
is able to voice what I have
experienced in a way that I have never
been able to do so. Thus said I would
also like to use some of your poems and
thoughts in my multi-media sculptures.
Thank you in advance for your

as putting together an enlightened and

Concerning transcendental hotel:
an actual poet who isn't too fucked up
and full of self pity to live out his
dreams. This is rare. This gives me
hope. Like Rilke, you remind me of
what poetry is capable of - insight
that can't be reached by any other
means.
Now that i'm done kissing your ass
here's something I wrote in New Orleans
It will refer to a day
when the devil rushed in
to pacify my heart
from then on I was a member of cunning
technology
the honing of remorselessness
I saw the scout make his report
I saw him smile
grow huge
sprout six legs
and walk over me
to cover me with his shadow
then later
while he napped on the hill
someone
came to adjust my bowtie
brush the dust off my lapels
then i was spun forty times
and pushed
into oncoming hell
into conciousness
where the phone could ring
where hearts beat, bleed
break
and burn while holding hands
but it was he who had a professional
interest in me
he saw me sag in the middle
and took a seat
and left guilt in my stomach
and isolation in my neck
he used tried and true ways
to amplify misery
and he left a bell at my side
and his parting words
were, "Ring it
if you can't take it
anymore."

Our duty of witness (a bitter duty) is,
as you say in your pages, to
eat until the end (like Christ with his
wine) the horrible plastic sandwich of
our civilisation, so that one time, at
last, can reaches us the good news we
are waiting, that all the humanity
waits: the news of his liberation from
that horrible taste.
So, maybe the poet-witness is really a
martyr, in
the ancient Greek sense of a man who
eats all possible filth, showing
with his words, his life and his body
that the flowers and the butterflies,
(like those in your website) are not
only a dream but a possibility. For
allof us.

Feedback to your page on Northern
Ireland (www.beyond-the-
pale.co.uk/norniron.htm)
Hello Anthony.
Your assessment of Northern Irish
people is as accurate a study of the
regional character as I have yet heard.
I was born in Bangor, county Down, but
have lived most of my adult life in
Ecuador and Venezuela, where I studied
and worked as a lecturer. I recently
returned to Northern Ireland for what I
hope will be a brief stay. My foreign
ex-wife, normally uncritical, visited
Northern Ireland and thought the people
cold, spoiled and horrid. Every foreign
visitor has been of this same opinion.
So often we tell ourselves how great
and friendly and warm we Northern Irish
are. It is repeated like a mantra. How
refreshing - and,surely, in the long
term, beneficial - to hear an honest
voice saying things that are actually
borne out by evidence.
If anything is to improve here we
should concentrate less on feel-good
slogans and spend more time taking a
painful and anthropologically-accurate
look at the nannied, self-pitying
creatures we have become.
Good luck,
Miles, January 2003. |

When we are born
they think us
blank slates
to scribble
upon
impart wisdom's "absolutes"
we
try
to understand
what it means
to have
a
beating mind
and those words etched on
our brains
drive our confusion
we spend our lives
erasing
the damage
Thanks for a wonderful website. I've
spent that last several days of my
death enjoying the mingling of our
sentiment. I need more time.

I want you to know how wonderful I
consider your site. I found it
accidentally while looking for Omar
Khayyám poems and analyses. I am a
Panamanian who is studying, almost
finishing, a second bachelor's, the
latter in English and it was great for
me to get information written in
English from people that think like
me. In my country it is not easy to
speak with someone about poetry,
history and philosophy...people seem to
be completely absorbed by working.
Keep up the good work.

Well, I have NEVER come across a 'bear'-
ish site like yours
before, and believe me, I have
traversed many ursine
sites. Yours manages to seduce me both
animistically
and cerebrally, whereas other bear
sites manage only
the latter.:)
I like the somewhat mysterious,
brooding atmosphere of
your pages too, it really makes the
reader want to
know more about the author. This is
also the first
time I have encountered a western gay-

is conscious of the agony of the

Your webcite's comments on the recent
October terrorist bombing in Bali was
both relevelant and insightful.
You point out what the business press
have glossed over and buried in
covering this tragedy. That terrorism
is a symptom of a parasitic tourism
industry which exploits and feeds off
indigenous cultures. That as the
weapon of the humiliated, terrorism is
the violent reaction to this trend.
It was refereshing to hear this point
of view. Especially, in light of the
fact that I work in Japan with
privilaged whites whose only lament on
the Bali bombing was that it altered
their vacation plans. |

I have great interest in your pillar
crosses. We have one in the parish of
Manister that is a large stone
Byzantine cross with a steel spicket
through the centre of the cross section.
We suspect that this is quite old as
it came from a church site that had
reference to it in 1201. The cross has
`mortice and tinnon` joint and the
whole although plain is very finely
made. Could we be correct in thinking
that it could be early in the second
millennium. |

The usual mode of a person who ventilates
interest in megaliths is romantic in essence.
This is not the case with you. I believe you
looked at megaliths to find expression of the
same questions and answers that the texts and
poetry on your website deal with.
To add to the feeling of estrangement or kinship
on my part, I was impressed to see your images as

I was quite impressed by your Albanian poems.
How does an Albanian happen to know English that
well?
Congratulations.

I am astonished, given the numbers of visitors to
your tattoo pages,
to see the number who have gone to the end of
your Imagepoem (www.egregious.org)
And I've been there twice!

Your site is, indeed, beyond the pale. I would
like to visit on my first trip to Ireland. You
are fascinating.

The site is great, and the material even more
so.
Interesting synergy
between the two but I suppose that's real
interest.
THE BEST OF MAN IS HIS RUINS!
(You're an astonishing web artist.)

I don't know how I could have missed your site in
the past. I am amazed at the effort that has
gone into doing a fantastic presentation. All
the best from America. Keep up the creative
energy! |

To Anthony Weir:
After finding my way (or perhaps having been
guided) to your web-sites, I will never again be
able to view my life experience in quite the same
way as before.
For one thing, it is a great comfort to me to
learn that you exist. I feel less alone in the
world, knowing you are here.
Because I am a man who loves men, I strongly
identify with much of what you have to say in
your poetry, especially in (but not limited to)
the Uranian poems.
As I am a bearded man who loves bearded men, I
find the images you make often strike me as
beautiful.
I do not believe I have much talent myself, but
if I have any talent at all, I think it is the
ability to discern treasure from dross. What I
sense from the impressions I am getting as I find
out more about you and your work, is that I have
stumbled upon treasure.
I have no way of knowing whether or not you feel
that all of the sacrifices you have had to make
for your art and your life have been worth it.
Please know that this man is very grateful to you
for your example and for your work.
Sincerely,
Trueman Greenwood
