The Polemics of Jack
by Jack Cross
Welcome to the Polemics of Jack. The Polemics, as I lovingly refer to my writings, are intended to be a collection of short articles, art-i-facts, journey notes, diagrams, ecstatic poetry, sleight-of-hand with Compass, Square and Pen, written exclusively under the influence of Soul-Mind-Manifesting Agents, secret and sacred. For those not familiar with the word ‘polemic,’ it means ‘WAR,’ and every man is Jack.
Simultaneously, I would like to welcome you to my hallucinations, of a Christ Complexicon made of the shapes of letters, and morphemes, the constituents of words, a complex-lexicon of Geometry and Archetype and Alphabet moving through time to a Receiver. YOU are reading a code.
Shamanism is primarily concerned with healing and meaning, which are directly experienced and learned through discipline from one’s own HIGHER SELF, who shall remain Nameless, and integrated into one’s so-called ordinary life.
These are the ashes of an extra-ordinary Journey, inward, in Word.
En-J-oy,
Jack Cross

The Etymology of Healing
THIS Etymology of Healing revolves around the Greek name ‘Jason,’ and an enTheogenic and esoteric explanation of why ‘Jason’ means ‘HEALER.’ ‘EnTheogenic,’ meaning, ‘GENERATING-THE-DIVINE-WITHIN,’ ‘esoteric,’ meaning, ‘SECRET.’Â
A Word about Knowledge
‘Epistemology’ is defined as ‘THE THEORY OF KNOWLEDGE.’ ‘Spectators’ have ‘theories,’ Serpents do not.
The Pole of Polemics
IN SEVERE GOODNESS, at the center of vertical and horizontal planes, the sa[y]man, the Wordman, is psychologically crucified upon the Cross of Consciousness and pierces the Vail of Time.
The Carpenter’s Tools
Structurally, and f-UNCTION-AL-ly, the Carpenter’s Tools, the COMPASS, SQUARE and PEN, are ‘INSTRUMENTS OF MEASUREMENT,’ measuring the ‘ment,’ the ‘MIND.’
An Alternate Etymology of Marijuana
The ‘-JUANA’ of Marijuana is the Latin/Spanish feminine aspect of the masculine ‘JUAN,’ in English, ‘JOHN,’ etymologically related to ‘JACK,’ ‘JAMES,’ ‘JASON,’ ‘JESUS,’ etc. etc., all, related, J-oined together, by the TEN-th Letter ‘J’ of the English/Latin Alphabet.
