Constructs

Ignorance is a lie, A construct of entitlement. Separation is a lie, A construct of inflated ego. Hatred is a lie, A construct of self-directed loathing. Powerlessness is a lie, A construct of apathy. Racism is a lie, a construct of ignorance. Entitlement is a lie, A construct of degradation. Death is a lie, A construct of embedded fear. Poverty is a lie, A construct of perverted power. Dominance is a lie, A construct of perversion. Construct: A complex image or idea formed of a number of simpler images or ideas. Reconstruct: rebuild from the ground up. Thoughts are things, and words have power to transform. A construct of enlightenment.
