Passion and Desire

Passion or Desire is not pure potential seeking manifestation. It is the manifestation of Life's flaming sword, runic capital letter of the sacred word. A spark that has been sparked, the flint that struck it's mark. A self illuminated Ray of light piercing the dark. Of nothingness, it appears or so it seems, but the problem with that is you don't get something from nothing. So what lifts on it's wing? Is it the designation retracing its flight? The deja Vu wizard at the crossroad, that fights the good fight. Against Apathy, to help the lost at sea. Like a lighthouse at night? Nonetheless, it is indeed of the light visions designation, interestingly enough, taking flight, as both path and destination. The calling, calling the bluff with no hesitation. For when the going gets tough. It is the drastic measures of the spirits measure plumblined sublime. Subliminally flashing divine coat of arms of a kind. Adventurer- nurturer- divulger of the sepulchre. An endless quest fore-treasured as Holy Grail and counted by the heart's ledger like Braille is for the blind. Of the heart's quill unquelled, determination at its behest, unquenchable fire. That never fails the test. Of time and the germination of seed, against backdrop of dusts. The Will's litmus test against need. Activation or bust. See. It is not potential anything. It IS everything. At least it's the best. For in God We Trust. In deed. ~ Jude Fernando Herrick

I'm totally swept over by your poems. I love your perspective, your summary of human nature. Our place being puppeteered hilariously by God or sheer biology.
