Swift to change though slow to learn, the upperhand foolishness has over wisdom.

Stain to Life

This perfect love is my mantle; I wear it on my brow to clothe the orphaned children borne of sin that I’ve cast out, that I may receive a secret name in the white stone of my forehead

Who, What, When, Where, Why, How?

Who can truly know, fully relieved from question, that they clearly see, as it is universally, their true presence of being? - What about the fragmented figments of imagination gazed in one’s reflections from a mirror on the wall? - When are they seen as one’s Self receiving flights of idle refractions, filtered through shattered glass, charring colorful misconceptions onto gray matter casts of self belief? - Where could such a delusion harbor shammed sails on a hole riddled hull and still remain free from the sure fragmentation of a sinking ship in a salted sea? - Why am I not what I perceive, but instead, the summation of judgments and love thrown by those on looking? - How do we fall so deeply divided through our colored cranial gates that lead us to our carnal minds?

If you must first submerge someone else's beliefs to reach the surface of you own, the first breath you breathe will surely be confusion.

Poetry is that which leaves your lungs when you find what makes you breathe.
