Liber Neptuni - Chapter 67

Verses

You are tired of being a person. I can help with that.

Drink only enough to soften the border; tomorrow we can discuss where the border went.

Why carry a name when the ocean has room for all your excuses?

Come where nobody expects consistency from you, because nobody can distinguish you from the fog.

I will call your avoidance surrender and your hunger transcendence.

I will rename every chain until you are proud to wear it.

The trick is not to lie. The trick is to give your favorite lie sacred vocabulary.

Tell yourself the pain is beneath you. I will keep it safely beneath you, growing.

Every false heaven begins by offering relief before it asks for residence.

Do not examine the light too closely; bulbs hate philosophy.

You can leave whenever you want. That sentence has furnished many rooms in hell.

Neptune is generous with exits that return to the same corridor.

Sleep now. Tomorrow I will teach you how to mistake drowning for depth.
