Separating

An open mind, a drifting thought A place to escape A place to hide Rage from something of matter Words cripple integrity of who said what and why An individual's interpretation upsetting another Defensive actions taken to protect …... At times honesty is not honest and yet vulnerability with insecurities exposes a small spark of anger thus creating a flame of sin that begins to burn as it sets ablaze to the crops and into the woods, the wind lifting spreading wild fire that becomes hard to detain. Calamities of emotion causing 3rd degree burns with or without intent but nether the less talking out of two sides of the mouth with sharp daggers hoping to pierce and wound blindly, gathering groups of support to sit comfortably. Don’t judge yet we all judge in all areas of life as questions of moral values are explained differently in different ways of how we were raised. Some may think to talk ill of another is okay even if it is masked with beauty, an insult is still an insult, you can put lipstick on a pig but it is still a pig. It’s not as if we had the same mother or father joining us together but we are human, well at least most of us are and as we walk amongst the dreams of night and drift through the day is non duality a concept of thought? A dream within a dream or vivid images, images of the mind? To express the experience – Stare at an empty wall and imagine people that you thought were good people but these people found comfort in mocking others because they felt superior, now close your eyes, take a deep breath in and out, feel the fire gone.
