The Problem With Image

I have come to realize
IQ and Intelligence
do not always occupy
the same space…

sort of like, one can make
a great film
and yet be a failure at
production…

as one can pass
a myriad of laws
but, unlike elsewhere, 
strength is not always
in numbers…

and when man
remakes God
in his own image,

image is not necessarily
a truthful reflection.

Much food for thought here, Joe. As always you stimulate the little grey cells
