THE WORLD THE FLESH AND THE DEVIL Let’s relax, be natural, have it our way In dignified union with all We’re the emerging community-at-large Benevolence one for all Anomalies are to be stilled We must arrange it that way To grow the new order Unhindered by pitiful ignorance Those narrow and without the vision It’s conclusive Expendable them all We’ll be cool about it though Grind away They’ll bow and cease Do we care when or how? We thirst for now and hope it painful . . . . Just enjoy Drain everything dry of its nectar Take all that is available, why wait? As long as there is a way Want what is mine Need what is mine Will have what is mine Deserve what is mine And so do you, buddy But don’t get in my way Or I’ll use all my charm And craft To get yours too I want you To use Perhaps not achieving the desired now But I will And I’ll do it again And again and again You’ll see I’ll win . . . . I’m so proud of you Dressed to the nines like you are And the wheels, w-h-o-a baby! You have such bright spunkiness about you Uncommon intelligence I wish you much gaiety, laughter, indulgences A community, you say? Pleasant tolerance? Ummmmmmmmm. Well, to a point mind you The silly can’t qualify Their illusions defeat them Why they can scarcely defend themselves All talk, sentimentality, mush Like the pathetic Galilean They need to be shown what love really is And taught some hard lessons as well I’ll tell you what I’ve got a plan Let’s journey together Each of you take all you want It’s free! And, by the way It’s time we write off the third world Don’t you think? I’ve got a man I’m grooming He’ll be of great assistance to us In all these important matters [This message has been edited by LayItDown (06-11-2003 08:26 AM).] |

![]() (big hugggsssssssss) Yes, we must work to rid of the idea of the third world, and not by imperialism, but by sharing the wealth and respecting the diversities while uniting! (sigh) And until that day comes, we will only destroy ourselves more and more with the falsity of joy and avarice, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Jack, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story ***Shakira*** [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (06-10-2003 10:07 PM).] |

I suppose there are folks with such conniving hearts and, but glad they are not the majority. As shown by this beautiful Corner. Did the speaker go by the name of Lucifer? Love, Joyce [This message has been edited by Joyce Johnson (06-15-2003 09:16 PM).] |

As sweet as you are, Noah, somehow I feel you have absolutely no idea of what I'm talking about. God bless you, dear brother. You are so wonderful. We are so privileged to have you in our presence! Love, LayItDown |

Thank you, Joyce. The point I am trying to make is that all of us have conniving hearts apart for our union with Christ. I really enjoy your spirit! ![]() Love, LayItDown [This message has been edited by LayItDown (06-15-2003 09:20 PM).] |

This just enthralled me. You touched on some themes that I am particularly fond of as well. I appreciated the archetypical imagery and the thoughtful treatment you gave them here. Thank you for the thought-provoking read. |
