GRGR 1:5- "...laminar and gently singing" / apologies to any Snoxalls

[Ghetta Life]

>From my perspective the most vexing portion of this quote is the term " the 
realm of Dominus Blicero."  That realm is that of Death, right?  But there 
is another "traditional progress" realm of Blicero, and that would be among 
the living.  According to the Hyperarts page, Blicero is German for White 
Man (also the alias of Weissman).  This seems to imply that the Lord White 
Man's ultimate realm is that of death.  But once he passes into that realm 
his nature changes from observer to participant.  He no longer measure's the 
rocket's progress.  He becomes the rocket (arrow) seduced like a weathervane 
by the wind.
