Where the Beast Can't Follow

Blog Posted by Gary Jones: 3/31/2008 6:11:00 AM
Born into the raw flesh of the physical world
We are placed in the burning fire of refinement
Each lifetime in this world is a spirit lesson
The world of the beast contains the rapist and saint
During one life, we’ll be the hateful abuser
Next time, we will be the helpless and torn victim

It is the nature of the beast

Evidence of the nearly completed spirit
Are the children who die at a very young age
They are always calm and serene, comforting us
There’s not much more refining for them to complete
They’re prepared to start a much more complex journey
Beyond the world of the burning lustful raw flesh

Where the beast can’t follow

Working with kids, there is often a desire to slay the beast. As adults we're supposed to set an example, but I often think It would be nice to spend a few hours with the beast, just me, him and my Louisville Slugger. It may not be a cure, but it sure as hell is a deterrent. Have a great day, Gary. Vince
