Scientology promotes this poem by Hubbard and set it to music in their Joy of Creating CD. Posted in the public interest as it expresses Hubbard's childhood "insight" into Man.
The Sum of Man,” found in one of his earliest diaries and written in his teens, marks the beginning of Ron’s legendary career as a writer, and is one of the earliest examples of his insightful free verse.
THE SUM OF MAN
PASSION Swirling ivory thoughts Swirling In red-flecked blackness. PASSION AMBITION Fire burning — searing Torturing My tied hands. THE SUM OF MAN THE SUM OF MAN THE SUM OF MAN CONCEIT Eyes that see nothing but mirrors Ears which hear nothing but praise Present man with a dwarf. CONCEIT Houses perched on stenching Quicksand. THE SUM OF MAN THE SUM OF MAN THE SUM OF MAN Repeat CONSCIENCE Leaden hue of horizons Racking sobs Of a heart which cannot cry. CONSCIENCE FEAR Black soul Naked to a shrieking wind Black soul Naked to a shrieking wind. THE SUM OF MAN THE SUM OF MAN THE SUM OF MAN Repeat HYPOCRISY Sleek Dripping with An inner oil which rots. HYPOCRISY TEMPER Cramming pity Of a blurred mind. TEMPER TEMPER THE SUM OF MAN THE SUM OF MAN THE SUM OF MAN Repeat CUPIDITY Cunning mind Which unnerves the eye Unclean lancet Unnerving the eye. CUPIDITY CUPIDITY JEALOUSY Swaying towers Prey to a zephyr. JEALOUSY HATE Unspoken words Carrion To nauseate And snarl the guts. THE SUM OF MAN THE SUM OF MAN THE SUM OF MAN Repeat Source: http://www.joyofcreating.org/lyrics/pamela.htm |
