Epoch See the boy child, the wide-eyed naivety, blissfully oblivious to the vigilant parent suspended discreetly in a vain attempt to shield the evolution of humanity Feel the anguish of a troubled youth, besieged and mystified by the veracity of life Fortified with knowledge and a wisdom unknown He stumbles & falls, plays the fool, and makes his way Taste the fire Of the enraged young man Poignant and forlorn, faltering, curtailed in a drunken stupor Grasping whatever ephemeral moments befall Inhale the fragrance lost within the middle age Unravelled in instance, abandoned in obligation while philosophies frayed into the vacillating crises of a perverse life Hear the old man moan his hand concluded as he eases into destiny, another fatality of life Carrying high life's hard earned lessons, expectations unfulfilled Liberation grants release at the behest of the genesis light |

 BRAVO!!! Oh Eddie, your wisdom is far beyond your years, sweet friend, that is but one genesis, then watch as our children swim through these channels and just wonder how we can ever develop from here! (big hugggssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is marvelous, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Eddie, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
