looking for a condition against health
where i can be blinded with science yet never mad with my lies...because faith is the only place we'd ever hide.

looking for my vision against stealth
where i can be told sin is like i thought...
no one's ever sinning, they just think they're caught.

no, no! faith is where i hide my friends,
this name is one given to a veteran but not a has-been although many came within.

i come for hidden faith and therein i'll pride these sins, but i won't try to erase the past because faith is the only place i ever knew to hide..
where we self applaud this ride...
and i'm left looking for a condition that i already knew who, what, when, where, and how to justify.

Very original poem, a thorough analysis that made me think! Not sure whether I get it right though ...
.... "sins" are learning processes and faith is the condition showering you with love and compassion ... in faith there is peace ... science unfolds mysteries and is fascinating and even more so when there is the awareness of spirit in All that is.
Love, Margherita

You bring many thoughts to mind with this, although I do agree with Margherita.Thoughts well penned.
