Endurance  For we are the blessed 1% surviving The long night in a nameless town and meeting two well-dressed Arabs gentlemen suited in the style of  ninety thirty-two and floral hats  With fortitude, we face this modern A time when lies are deep in sagacity where the whims of the stupid are the politics of the day, drink coffee knowing we are the eternal. ...

Awed joyously while gripped with reverential fear Blessed to possess eternal life midst this mortal being Carnal yet granted with divine nature Damned by sin, but now delivered through the Saviour...
