Fool that I am

I have been a fool. I have thought that to represent God well to others I needed to worry only about those times that they see me, hear me, etc…no, I represent God to others even in those times that they don’t have a clue what I am doing; for two reasons: 1. What I [...]
Resolved

Few things I will unreservedly proclaim with a close-minded resilience; yet this is one…

There is this very large and sophisticated intuitive concept that I have had for years…that seems to simply be beyond my grasp currently to explain rationally, so I’m just going to just throw out bits and pieces as I try to articulate this for myself and for the world.

Amidst a hurt people we walk. The contagious poison surges through our spirits rendering critical our soul. Our insecurity of soul is sustained by cultural illusions which attack the innocence we had, tempting us into a war of delusions.
I hurt as an entropic gravity disassembles me in this social order we call civilization. It unfolds [...]

He laid there in his dirty sheets,
apathetically gazing at his unkempt room.
Books and papers, disorganized and strewn about,
He was a first rate example of the second law of thermodynamics.
He hadn’t shaved in weeks,
Or brushed his teeth in days,
The once taught and strong teen-age body,
