tears are enough
♪a rhymed, mirrored octet♪
§
you
are not
innocent
of the blood of
all the saints that die
daily a t your a l t a r s.
keep your p i o u s sacrifice:
what i ask of you is j u s t i c e
but the stench of all your lust is
nothing short of compromise.
though the lowly falters,
i shall hear his cry.
tears are enough,
for they vent
all but
true.

Excellent, Cabcool. When the heart is corrupt the offering is a stench rising up.

Thank you, Ahavati, my friend.
I only need to start a message and you are then able to take it the whole way because you know the heart of it.

I was a third world missionary and teacher, my friend. I've read that gospel cover to cover at least a half a dozen times. And, each time it revealed something new between the lines . . .

Of course, you were -- and I do remember that from previous conversations. That's why I can confidently say what I say about your insights.
What's your current mission/occupation/preoccupation?

I'm hanging out working in my home office or playing with my grandson, who I have the privilege to keep now that I work from home.
The good book says "The truth is within you" - therefore we bear witness with those who share universal truths contained within us. It's as though it's an evolutionary beacon for soul families to know which tribe they belong to - or are migrating to and from. Words really are a beautiful thing to form parables.

Ah, flower
Your thoughts are always congruous with good things. Thanks for taking the time to share them, especially in a way that extends the messages that my inks seek to bring to a torn world.
