In his essay "Let's Be Reasonable" 
Rev. Todd Eklof [The Gadfly Papers]
reduces reasonable to logical;

The thunder struck and the heavy rains came,
He struggled for survival, fought hard.
The downpour wouldn’t stop, the streets now flooded,
the man now lay unconscious on a boulevard.

And visitors from outer space
I wonder if they will...

We lesser mortals cup in hand beg, not for attentions’ span nor

"You’re It, The Secret"



Inside you
a whole new world

You … exist

Outside
the game is ‘resist’

such an anxious world
the questions forever 

pressing on 
You

wanting answers
your gardens soiled and turned

new seeds for blooming
planted

your muddied waters
become in your mind...

Claiming cool comradeship courageously
Communicated clever candid...

natural exotic music
dancing muse content

While singing deep spiritual
reasons
for light and night,
glad and sad feelings
above well-capitalized necks

And darker powerful feelings
down below
sacred 1/0 soul
of private...
