Inner Strength



How do you deal with disappointment,

Defeat or loss of a loved one?

You summon up your inner strength –

The power that comes from the Almighty One.

As a result, His Spirit nourishes your spirit;

His vision widens your perspective,

Enabling you to see beyondThe hardship and despair.

Reverse Creation

In the end, man destroyed the heaven that was called earth.
The earth had been beautiful until the spirit of man moved over it and destroyed all things.
And man said…
Let there be darkness… and there was darkness.
And man liked the darkness; so he called the darkness “security”
And he divided himself into races and religions and classes of society.
And there was no evening and no morning on the seventh day before the end.
And man said…
Let there be strong government to control us in our darkness.
Let there be armies to control our bodies, so that we may learn to kill one another neatly and efficiently in our darkness.
And there was no evening and no morning on the sixth day before the end.
And man said…
Let there be rockets and bombs to kill faster and easier.
Let there be gas chambers and furnaces to be more thorough.
And there was no evening and no morning on the fifth day before end.
And man said…
Let there be drugs and other forms of escape for there is this constant annoyance… reality, which is disturbing our comfort.
And there was no evening and no morning on the fourth day before the end.
And man said…
Let there be division among nations, so that we may know who is our common enemy.
And there was no morning and no evening on the third day before the end.
And finally man said…
Let us say that God thinks… as we think
Hates…
And kills…
And there was no morning and no evening on the second day before the end.
On the last day thee was a great noise on the face of the earth.
Fire consumed the beautiful globe, and there was…
Silence
The blackened earth now rested, to worship the one true God.
And God saw all the man had done… and in the silence over the smoldering ruins… HE wept.

your eyes, they sparkle not for me.
though i long from the deepest, darkest depths of my soul
for your heart to echo mine, i know i cannot have you.
should the stars come down from the heavens,
and the splendors of the ocean all rise up to grovel at your feet,
at this very instant, i know i cannot have you.

[Hellblazer 2.1]

Always I have dreamed of you
Since the day I have seen you
I think of your eyes so gentle
The moment I see them sparkle

I dreamed of myself dreaming of you
And I dreamed of you dreaming of me too
But in reality you don't even know that I exist
For I'm just a forgotten ghost nobody missed

In my mind I see only you
And I feel you so close to me
But there is nothing that I can do
Except to dream of you endlessly

You're so beautiful that's why I pray
That my soul be free and be redeemed
But I guess we shall always stay...
The dreamer and the dreamed.

(These are the best words I have ever read in my life)

Sonnet XVII -- Pablo Neruda

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way

than this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.

[Bigfoot Oracle]

somewhere i have never traveled
by e. e. cummings

somewhere i have never traveled, gladly beyond
any experience, your eyes have their silence:
in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me,
or which i cannot touch because they are too near

your slightest look easily will unclose me
though i have closed myself as fingers,
you open always petal by petal myself as Spring opens
(touching skilfully, mysteriously) her first rose

or if your wish be to close me, i and
my life will shut very beautifully, suddenly,
as when the heart of this flower imagines
the snow carefully everywhere descending;

nothing which we are to perceive in this world equals
the power of your intense fragility: whose texture
compels me with the color of its countries,
rendering death and forever with each breathing

(i do not know what it is about you that closes
and opens; only something in me understands
the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)
nobody, not even the rain, has such small hands

Entropic Sillyfish

The increasing sense of solitude
envelopes me with awe
eyeballs up the latitude
of the perverse and the raw

Starlight comes and whisks away
like freight train of dark energy
my sanity, it tries not fray
in the midst of all? Security

When my teeth part off the bite
partaking of the holy light
perfect prey succumbs to smite
I quiver cringing at the sight

I'm now one with the entity
here for all eternity
until the end
of entropy
