"he was just some Joseph...looking for a manger" leonard cohen~YEAH I love poetry!from Blake to Ferlinghetti!&beyond! I'm fond of computationaly irreducible
& sequipedilian dextrous...phrases, lately.
about forgiveness...,from of all places a secular source,Rob Brezsny...
"Forgive yourself for the blindness that put you on the path of those who betrayed you." we are forgiven AS we forgive & that's a 2way street of others~AND~ourselves, the Ms.Havershams in this world living in endless regret& blind self loathing need our love & prayers for their healing. those who betray us act as thieves of our faith...&as an old cop I knew taught me:"He who angers you conquers you." very zen & very Christian. Yep,"judge not least ye be..." 'bout the toughest words in the Good Book,eh...? &yeah, I'm guilty of the sin of ego when I pride on NOT caste&class tripping "Holier-Than-thou" innocence but it IS fun to confuse 'em with kindness... just my childish ways.its come to my attention that Mother Nature is quit the coyote trickster/Kali destroyer(of Trust&wishful thinking??)in that there are few attractive women also highly intelligent,genius,aesthetically refined,humble,spiritual OR good looking & emotionally liberated WITH a happiness gene AND a spiritual compass/thirst to be moral beyond a simple minded convenience factor of fear&greed &thats so banal.Pride filled Ignorance.So keep me poor&humble&hungry.Can't help it that I'm goodlooking&smart&spiritual.America's oligarchy has enough fools in the parade,I thank my God they don't need me.But HE does.I pray to keep me with the vision to seek Friendship with women of Spirit &Heart&compassion...happy to quote Kierkegaard on that subject of having a little more respect for women...&of course, happy to read you poetry.
If you fill your life with Hollywood,TV junk food,football,Nascar,Vegas,materialism &other spiritual disease symptoms...you might be a bit disoriented by further reading. But if I reached out I'm willing to take a chance on that 1 in a 1,ooo+:You.
&if you are Ph.D-JD-MD-DD or daft, we might connect the head&heart&discover friendship&laughter.Don't be so IVY League entitled!Thats just another pauper begging crumbs at life's banquet. I've known 1 or 2. The desire that can never be filled?:the rich for more! their misery is fathomless!

knew an elder black man architect who had seen the race card 1,ooo times in the military, survived& buried some of his children(no greater grief can I imagine) lived a long life with a highIQ into quiet graciousness, told me 1day when he learned I was a Capricorn-
'we tend to be rather serious children
but age frivolously!'
I'm free to visit or relocate. finished FLA obligations '09. I love ,imperfectly, all Gods children.though raised("the smallest club in America?happy children from Functional families!")Presbyterian (YES in a loving functional family!!! they DO exist!)I've returned to Christ as a Christian Quaker friend(the "zen of the west"??)
of many voice poetic infinitudes& ZEN influences&am VERY low on the holier-than-thou scale... it ain't MY job to judge.so if you are casual 'bout your search for the sacred= I'm NOT!but you can be free to be free.A right up front Christian I seek only 1LONGTERM monogamy NO willyNilly! but can certainly nurture any friendship.
"There are no answers, only choices." Solaris george clooney>very cool &so is the original Russky film!(&yes I know a lot about a little or a little about a lot!>but Alzheimer's LITE! I can't remember! Steven Wright says he has alzheimer's & deja vu & "can ALMOST remember forgetting THAT before!"
I do love film as art BUT will ALSO sit thru a chickFlick to make you happy if we cuddle..."Nothing evolves us like love." hafiz "Love is a river. Drink from it" Rumi "I fish in the river of Time." HD Thoreau
"Mi Patria...My country is in your eyes..." Neruda
have a clue who any of those above might be? great if you do!OK if you don't.
Don't assume my highIQ would make us WAY TOO different.Differences are good!I do read the NYTimes &poetry & James Joyce BUT you don't HAVE to even have a clue of the World Culture for us to balance... I am exuberant & joyous AND capable of faith, prayer & humility.&selfless service... fit,witty,goodlooking ,truthful &faithful.I've NEVER had an affair OR desired 1.IF you have low self esteem I nurture, & will NOT walk on you...NOT racist,arrogant,narrow,sexist,greedy,or bigoted or Republican in any way...never seek casual friction intimacy.THAT is the last of it... I don't have any hang ups about our bodies, but am HAPPY to respect whatever hangups you polish..., just looking for the sacred & never imagined that is in any form of poly, group or casual.Any Questions? Good! Ask Anything.Just as power&depths of a true passionate,loving Man&wife cannot be known on the surface"lifestyle" through Mad.Ave. psycho-babble hucksters &"the unrelenting nausea of advertising" in the Culture's flotsam&jetsam true passion can only be known between 2. 2cleaved as 1 in a loving ,nurturing Ds balance.simple.prayerpartners ...Yes to 420 sacred herb meditation catalyst,TIH-OTK spices. Ephesians 5.Gospel John teaches Christ is friend AND fire/sword bringer.HE has no fine print. &neither have I.If I have posted you I am interested.per the wise old George Carlin:"Don't sweat the petty stuff OR pet the sweaty stuff!"
NOT Bi-polar willynilly! I do not own the words> only the poets DO! BUT I do know their passions!May I read them to you?"...how smoothly, like the sleep of a flower,love,the wind moves over night's tense, grassy meadow..." patchen
YEAH, I'm so old I saw Hendrix play!&a 1,ooo poets pose!(BUT I've only seen 2 scary things:rednecks with $&Quakers line dance!)(1st thing I taught my kids to say>when the words began flowing:"Rock n'Roll GrandMA!-turn it up LOUDER!!!!")&I'm open to kids=yours,mine,ours,foster ,adopt a dozen!? I love kid zoos!but I've only 3 in 3 successful divorces!22-14&12.... not ADD= No Meds!No voices!
