Burnt up lilac inferno blazes forest
Homeless wingers endeavor, build the new nest
Skyscape descends, inundates smoky ether
Nature in ashes.
Flame of anger perforates mental terrain
Ember notion revengeful, outlook sightless
Serene essence distillates sedate solace
Consciousness frozen.

Best wishes in mentions . Less mess with which best left to rest . More distance distillates dislike that dawns delight . Illumination lifts hates distraught brought to rot with lips on eerie words . So set in settle if rest feels eerie , distance brings distillation to dismiss .

Every man's life , every man's truth , Every man's take on the road of life . with a trip like a blip which switches to zip . What truth distillates my heart .... in a daze in a maze can you gaze on what remains by graces sight for truths roots to take hold . What motivates when hope is lost .... every lack of faith seals fiat , yet every bit of faith enhances , enriches which eclipses sorrows rigor touches . What strength is in me .... every day in maze , grace rises to attain sustained to par . But if you daze within lack of faith it seals your fiat in mazes lost , gone to waste . What road will i travel .... every journey joint to anoint a point in graces measure by every man's faith . Every maze every choose raises miseries reign . Will I fight the good fight or rest in comfort .... every test to arrest the less that arrest the best in me that a test with grace arrested in graces ways . Every comfort that waste the best in me strays from joy . Every road leads to one choose mazes or graces , faith or blind .

A beautiful soul full of grace , purity , love illuminated brilliantly by the spirit . It's unnatural in the earth because it is the salt of the earth , for it's an affront to the ways of the world . Its perception, understanding distillates the worlds wisdom for what it truly is foolishness . Its very nature is symbolic to the word , it strives to grow closer to God .
