No more guessing at the heavens, I tire of this rolling wheel of unexplainable nonsyncretism, No longer willing to just accept, mentally or bodily, this strange concept of disestablishmentarianism. I can't question the motives of those so fruitless in their attempts to hinder with the strings of such a miniscule lute the actions of a country well-denied its very own culture in an attempt to "socialize" it. But I am quite spiritually disinclined to step forward any longer against these dark entities that stand for "liberty and justice" for the people, and hold a different form for themselves. I will sit back in the shadows and watch the warfare continue and my friends be slaughtered with handcuffs and a gavel and postpone forever my own attempts to be heard. (repost from Open #1) You can't wake a person who is pretending to be asleep. -- Navajo Proverb |

you have "been heard"... I remember learning to spell disestablishmentarianism...many moons ago. Don't quite remember the reason though *s ~Wynter "The worst prison would be a closed heart". |

You never cease to amaze me, Sweetness. I love the depth in this, and how much it made me think. Did I mention its wonderful to have you posting? Sometimes the heart needs the solace of solitude and silence. |

"I will sit back in the shadows and watch the warfare continue and my friends be slaughtered with handcuffs and a gavel and postpone forever my own attempts to be heard" I doubt that. Your voice will speak out clearly for fairness and truth. It's the nature of your spirit to do so. |
