The Fallen Fallacy of Politics
They're dancing around the fire for rain. For a moment, bright bursts of flames, fractalizing into the sky. Awe and wonder. Brief, but captivating, an exit of light. A celebration of the pointing finger. Number one. To burn the seasoned growth of life. The crops, cracked, and dry. As night leaves ashes, an aching ground. Twisted, warped aesthetics are a gross enamor. Revelry, taking for granted the precious gift and balance of what is given.
A poison warning - skull and bones. Do not imbibe the potion of the night. Peering in the crystal ball, everyone sees lightning....

My Big Three
The passage of time lends itself to reflection
and while I never sought perfection
I can say some decisions regarding voting preferences
were just a consideration of all the alternatives
Then there were those votes cast at that point
while not designed to blindly anoint
do say yes these values cut across any one moment in time
and suggest a person whom I felt was a change lasting change agent
So while my vote for Jesse Jackson was a message about
getting beyond capitalism on steroids and the murder throughout
likewise the...

Phrases & Concepts
The control of allowing the mind to wander captures the essence of creativity.
It takes more strength and might to create than to destroy.
Zero only exists because of the possibility of one. There has to be something in order to conceive nothing.
Perfection was always possible, is always possible, and will always be possible, whether it was, is, or will be achieved, or not, as there is room to improve, moving forward within perpetual change. Such is striving for repentant faith in self.

What's Wrong with Lust?
There are at least four major things that are wrong about lust, or sexually immoral behavior, from a purely observatory stand point. Secrecy, conceit, betrayal, and deception are at least four things wrong. Secrecy is flat out dishonest, assumed to be hidden, and double-standardized. In contrast of context, and construity of situational and circumstantial consequence, such things are assumed to be unseen. Conceit is being too full of yourself, based on arrogance, haughtiness, and pride. This is far from honesty and truth. Betrayal involves annexing trust, and doing away with any...

Judgment (Tangent)
The irony of judgment is that any accusatory subjection is often vicarious, to just about anyone. Guilt is present, whether you're offending, or being defensive. We all share observation in attention span. To some level or degree, it will elicit guilt, even in the accuser!
The accuser is disassociating something that they've been guilty in, and attempting to relieve their own insecurity, as to assume they would never do what they're accusing of, or that they never have been guilty of the same thing. They may not be aware of it, or they may just flat out presume innocence, so...

Fact (A Rant)
Fact can be used to persuade or manipulate, given a motive and intent. That's not necessarily a direct connotation of "truth." If I say, "You've failed, and we have proof," does that mean you can't change?
Stereotyping and over-generalizing to support a biased and partial claim is certainly not the limitation of statistics. You could misconstrue the entire context of existing conversation dynamics to suit anger and hatred. It's moot, because fact should be a given, but often isn't, and the future is the "truth," but many are stuck on the past to...

Pride
Pride is considered an essential and necessary personality trait. The truth is, it is the downfall of humanity - individually, and collectively. It is mistaken for confidence and independence. This merely creates division and divisiveness, as people think that such a concept as "truth" is subjective, and not absolute. By default, there can only be "one" truth, if it is to be truth. Everyone believes what they want to. Ultimately, the majority of people think they're right in their own eyes. Such can work on many levels, individually, and collectively.

Potential Unity in Humanity (An Incomplete Rant)
Between the stature of potential unity in humanity, there is certain construction. Fact should be a given, and the future should forever unfold the truth. Misunderstood by the estimation of rationality in purpose, promises on the horizon are beyond comprehension. Cohesiveness shall bond, further developing interest of the mind, in this inspirational pursuit. Change, within sentient introspection.
Along with consciousness, emotion is a gift to manage and regulate. It's a response to morality and conscience, within a system of spanning attention. Being humble, teachable, and...

The Absolution of Truth (A Semantical Tangent)
"Truth" is not a matter of subjection in oneself to decide what to believe. You can't just believe whatever you want, and think that makes it "truth." People have proclivities of bias, partiality, and favoritism within them, let alone pride. If they just believe something because it benefits them, it may not be "truth." They may simply just want to believe it. It's not a matter of what you want to believe.

The Box (Rant)
The Box:
The experience of choice and fate isn't really a belief, but it's a given, in which to be thankful for, regardless of failure. It's simply not wise to take things for granted, and thrive on exposing faults in others, to disassociate your own. Thus, the intejection of imperfection, and the need to solve problems. Perfection is always possible, whether attained or not, and there's always room to improve, moving forward. You can "choose" to believe that, in experience, and rely on maximizing such potential. Not only that, but the evidence of the human spirit is...

I Hate Computer Cookies
I hate stubbing my toe on a piece of furniture, it’s ok though, I shout at the furniture too. I hate opening the box of matches upside-down. The free fall of matches does something funny to the psyche doesn’t it?
I have issues with pizza. I hate when I drop the pizza gooey side down after trying to remove it from the oven without a pair of oven gloves. Then I hate burning the roof of my mouth for the second time because the first bite into the roasting hot pizza wasn’t enough to teach me a lesson. And I hate the inevitability of the pizza ending up on my new white shirt.
