    before the next bite
    the fangs are sharpened to point
    ready for red blood

    Remember this, my friends: there are no such things as bad plants or bad men. There are only bad cultivators.

    the hierarchy
    Faith is believing what you know ain't so - Mark Twain

    The preachers deal with men of straw, as they are men of straw themselves - Henry David Thoreau

    The way to see faith is to shut the eye of reason - Benjamin Franklin

    The teaching of the church, theoretically astute, is a lie in practice and a compound of vulgar superstitions and sorcery - Leo Tolstoy

    the hierarchy
    begins from top to bottom
    from sweet lips to hips.

    When asked how World War III would be fought, Einstein replied that he didn't know. But he knew how World War IV would be fought: With sticks and stones.

    the goblins of my day dreams
    sadden starry nights.

    once the sun proudly fiercely
    pointed straight at you

    Pointed straight at you
    the finger finds its target
    the spotlight hits you

    The spotlight hits you.
    Intense glare seeping into you,
    Of a thousand eyes.
    For I have known them all already, known them all:
    Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
    I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
    I know the voices dying with a dying fall
    Beneath the music from a farther room.

    So how should I presume?
    Eliot

    Of a thousand eyes
    Your right one's the most lovely.
    The left - not so much.

    For those on the right will reign
    And these are the lambs

    And these are the lambs
    so innocent they gather
    in emerald fields
    Our task must be to free ourselves by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature and its beauty

    fix spires and minarets.
