...and on the sixth day i was sent a vision and apocalyptic nightmare it marked the begining of my descent I find myself unsure in my madness is it I or is it the recurrence of thee my mind wanders over foreign landscapes home of the broken peoples dark shattered shadows crying to be whole i descend further into the vision i enter the last days a plethora of sights and smells asail as if i suffered in nievity my mind creatures around me become as smoke as i approach them ghosts in a twisted mind i can read them all Fear surrounds me ghost fear intangible in essence citric bitter it burns my tongue before evaporating as a ghost itself The buildings alter even as i focus altering as my thoughts race around solid in this shadow of my past the sun broken in four parts passes i watch the sunset of the sixth day in my own world of shadows no fear is in me it leaks coating this world Total darkness i am alone again in my mind i stand in the final night in a world of shadows perhaps i saw the sunrise i don't remember but the city of shadows is gone and i continue - Perhaps there is no Hell The very deep did rot: O Christ! |

(big hugggssssss) Oh Walter, you seem troubled, is everything alright? I know this feeling ever so well where buildings seem to crumble and the corona blocks the sun and makes everything seem gray and apocalypse is beginning in my heart! (sigh) Know the sun never sleeps and he is always watching us all and will prevail with love, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Walter, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Walter Poe, This needs another ride on the bullet train, we know as "Open" Great write. ~wranx In reply to "which way do we go?", the answer was never "straight", but, "progressively forward". |

And perhaps there is a hell...some say they are living in hell on earth but we have to die to find out for sure...James |
