Course as wind, the spirit paces in all the hallways we have yet to discover within ourselves

Untouched portals and crooked thoughts of mankind clash, leaving the seekers tongue tied.

Climbing high above, the sun glares through branches of the old growth of a Redwood tree

that is what is providing, this provides for me.

We want answers, answers, and more answers to the beings that we are, meanwhile allowing ourselves to forget that we became from a star.

These streams of sorrow are deeper than the image. Sorrow is universal and ignorance has become such a habit, for man has forgotten compassion.They rest in their corners, writing book after book of “truth” becoming idolized, while individualism ceases.

Not for the sake of salvation, or security of eternal life, not for tradition, or culture for it’s always shifting.
