to avoid timely discernment,
are contrasts in density of opportunity
and toxicity of risks
hidden within our values and disvalues

Digging my own grave synonymous with a sense of accomplishment

Quite an undertaking
to break ground
figuratively, and symbolically linkedin
while able bodied and mindedness

FOR GOD’S SAKE

When living "...of the world" despair unfurled.
I lost sight of heaven’s glorious pearl.

The debate has been raging for centuries.
Where do we come from?
Why are we here?
Where are we going?

What is on your mind today?
A war without repercussion
