Spiritual Mahjong
Your Move Lord
Is there a God?
A benevolent entity.
An eternal presence presiding over me.
A creator, watching and observing.
All knowing.
Is my end determined and conclusive before it begins, before I begin?
If so, then to what purpose...

Bipartisan Dissonance
When oppositional cognitive dissonance
deflects focus from compassion,
I've learned to go back to when I deflected focus from her.
She sends me passive-aggressive messages,
bread crumbs leading back in time
to where she began to feel lonely,
marginalized,
siloed,
anxious,
neglected.

His glowing golden eyes glistened with a comprehension beyond the mortal condition

Pursuit of Infinite Knowledge and Understanding
(In a Lush Garden Somewhere Out There)
The student stands where shifting sands of thought
Once firm with reason
now elusive truths are sought.
Its splendor wanes

Why Life
Why does dawn dress robust morning,
while dusk undresses sight?
Each dawn incarnates another Earth Day
a lifetime of Easter mornings
redeeming nocturnal sight's revolution,
another therapeutic day of gift-it-forward light,
some longer,
some shorter
before naked covered night.
Why life?
To uncover...

Truth is a feather
pushed off to the other side.
Truths are a body of feathers
within which our bodies reside.
OK, students of life’s healthiest purposes and meanings,

Water's Weakness
There is nothing weaker than water
But none is superior to it in overcoming the hard,
For which there is no substitute.

Fishy Science School of Geometric Arts
Math speaks through us
within us
of cognitive landscapes
imagined still and/or moving.
Primal metrics are rational and symmetrical,
good as true as straightforward,
complex creation story problems
unfolding with precise answers,
right as at least not not ecologically wrong,
ecopolitically suboptimal perhaps,
yet at...

Remembering Radical Relatives
Explain your historical evolution radically, inclusively, expansively, good-humoredly;
not carefully, deductively, reductively, sarcastically.

Sublime Terror
Let's say I am an antro-privileged terrorist.
What would we be saying?
And is human nature supremacy
over all other less sacred nature/spirits

is "religious terrorist" as oxymoronic
