FOREST OF FEAR



Be frank but fair and I will respond teachably.


I give up to you my duality.


Every silver lining has a cloud.


Why be arrogantly proud?

Quite yourself.

Less loud.


Then...one two three


1.SELL YOUR INADEQUACY 

2.BECOME YOURSELF HONESTLY

3.BE PATIENT AND SEE


You have to tolerate intolerance without being intolerant of tolerance.


<there is no loophole where acceptance is approval>


Acceptance is everything extending to the far reaches of the galaxy bringing stability everywhere it spreads.


“I am without unacceptable inadequacy.”


I can rest my head.


No more dread.


Undone deeds are dead.


I give up to you the intersection of chaos and order.


Open palms are forever warmed by daylights touch.


A closed fist grasps only darkness.


Confession expresses acceptance.


It makes a record of history.


No longer hidden within taxing liminality.


The memory is seen even when encoded in mystery.


It’s soothes me.


Honesty

Intimacy

Exposure

Vulnerability

Each an act of sincerity.


I am real, raw, vulnerable, exposed, intimate, honest, sincere and genuine. 


Do your very best to question me skeptically.

Has my story been shared fully?

Or has it been sullied by a weary soul, seeing things blurry where you wish it were clear, transparency is holy fear you see, then and only then will you feel whole.


I am sacred and bold.

Your hand in mine has consoled a heart hardened by the toll.


Ignite that dark black igneous coal.


Illumine my eyes to attract an answer for lack.


Sharpen my lens from scarcity that I might see abundant provision laid out before me.


Show me just how far the horizon extends.


You can’t offend.


Nothing builds trust in reality like opening the doors of your story.


Do it publicly.

Do it privately.


Doesn’t matter to me.


Reveal it to somebody.


Whether that somebody is me, everybody or thee.


Let it be free.


Harboring knowledge helps nobody.


It only breeds injury and collects tyranny.


Breaking down bridges and building walls against community.


Skepticism married to assumption: suspicion 


Suspicion.

Breeds division.


Make your selection: trust 


Trust.

And you must lead vulnerably.


Examples of transparency spread light into the hearts of everybody even those shrouded in resistance to inevitability.


Eventually everything will be reavealed about everybody and what has been concealed will no longer be sealed, it will all have appeal as a story that is real.


Don’t feel ashamed or pass blame.


Maintain no need to explain.


Just state your claim and remain the same.


Faithful and true that is you.


Despite the deleterious deterioration of competing views.


Don’t be confused.


I see you.

I accept you.

I am you.

I elect to select you.

I include you.

I protect you.


I will never reject you.


I love you too.

BURNING

Berlin, where to begin, a modern palace, a man made palisade, every road a river, every avenue with a view, a canyon as grand as the land upon which it stands. Hand in hand with enemies, armies and allies, museums for spies, not a single tourist what a surprise, then you realize the lies, the wickedness and tyranny, the inhospitality with prejudicial subtlety, who don’t you see, a refugee, not a single unmistakable identity, between you and me, France will exceed their economy, just wait for the hate to gravitate, for the ennui and balanced diversity to betray a brewing unsettled antiequanimity surrounding the lack of equality. Racial intolerance has bubbled to the surface again, only this time it does begin with “I don’t mean to offend...but how far do our borders extend.” ...might I recommend we end an era of empires and cease in territorial defense without offense. There is a new tool, it’s cool.  It’s called unregulated rule. Don’t be cruel. Embrace the unusual. The only thing ...

SACRED SILENCE

Why the journey aboard? A second ascent to a continent where I was just present.  The first an attempt to explore a small extent of opportunities beyond my countries boundaries whose borders collide and divide within me. Five familiar faces as close as family living in comfortable hospitality without burdens of responsibility upon me. A great introduction in preparation for an elaborate production. The intent was to grieve, to leave behind bitter lies, loss and broken memories, primarily a host of voices within me...to find and restore my true identity—What existence and the world has meant to me. It’s has already been a success indeed, as I sat in a bunk contemplating things with a friendly sojourner like me. Has it become that every face I see is reflecting something in me? I burned a bridge, high on the ridge, I concluded a decades worth of grief that polluted my soul. I feel whole. Faith is gone. Her familiar face for which I long will never age. Trapped...

BETWEEN HER AND I

TRIGGER WARNING⚠️ -extremely rough content ahead- I saw a child today, starved lying beside her mother, flys picking at the body. And I saw a bear give birth to her cubs in the winters snow.  And I saw a business man beating a hooker to death in his Vegas hotel room, Hugo boss shoes stained red with her blood. And I saw a meteor shower from the summit of Kilimanjaro.  And I saw a baby baptized by a priest who had molested the mother when she was a child. And I saw a bean stalk grow. And I saw a child lose their limb in a Mattel toy factory near the shen Jin province.  And I saw an iceberg fall into the sea as whales swam past undisturbed by the scene.  I saw a homeless man freeze to death in the winter streets of Chicago, clutching an unsmoked rock. I heard a dolphin sing to his lover beneath the glow of fluorescent algae. I heard a child scream from a wooden shelter in the woods, no mother, no father, just alone. I heard a breeze rushing throug...
