Trustlessness keeps tusseling my sanity in taffy pull-- as if I ought to be ashamed of what I learned there in the flames for screaming as I'm scorched again by the torch, ambivalent in equation with desire-- or is that a birth defect? I was squired from the sin of the yearning burning flesh. Put your hand into my flame. I've been naughty, once again-- but maybe now you see my point and words remain as -- point-less-ness I pray forgive me and annoint my soul back into purity with ashes on my head and burnt by the lessons that I spurned via lack of learnedness not for lack of earnesty or is it just "not innocent" which denies me amnesty squalling for my mother's teat-- a game which only martyrs win and I am not a Saint. |

mainly I root for my glasses these days... but? I guess if y'wanna take the football slant on this--don't you agree that the San Antonio Saints would be redundant? But then, St. Anthony finds "lost" things--too, now what a story that would make, eh? And sheesh. Can we just not talk football?  (yay manning, yay  ) |

I hate football so no problemo. I thought you were talking about curing insanity, well in a way you are right?  |

Ser, I think those are some of the most penetrating lines I have read for a long time. Think, perhaps, I could use a little bit of that purification and annointing myself. It's a tight rope to walk -- being human and being pure. *hugs*....jojo |

What happened to sack cloth and self-flagellation to go with the ashes? Poet, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |
