THE RESPLENDENT MURK
By GreccoStoliesSimile'
Copyright 2004
The resplendent murk of unfocused thought and doubt,
Transmutes to shame to injure our soul.
What a solemn contradiction to principles
And beliefs our actions often take.
The causes for such baneful inconsistency
Eludes us when clear facts do not
Present themselves obligingly.
What a hateful mess our self-made burdens curse us with;
They amplify that which is not in our control.
Bitter tears? Yes! Holy unto us only if we endure,
Persevere, and wait to see the end unfold.
To our surprise, we may lose or win.
To complain is pointless; no one cares for your misery
For the hearers of your words are crushed by their own cares.
Therein is the truest, kindest compassion expressed by thoughtful sacrifice,
Works of action moved by faith.
This is the milk of human kindness!
A declaration to the ignorant and self-wise:
"Open your eyes and unstop your ears,
Stretch forth your hand and do more to prove your words.
Pain the master teacher, a force irresistible,
is often the price of knowledge and
Comprehension the cost for awareness.
The Sympathetic Interchange is where reason is born.
There truth creates light,
It being the mirror of the living will and all it has done,
It births all purposes, meanings and understandings.
Fact by relationship to fact, sires knowledge.
Understanding is the father of all comprehension.
Decisive dispositions emerge as a properties of thought,
Personality emerges as the summation of all the unique paths
Of least resistance through a matrix of truth.
Thought is purpose. It is the reason for movement;
To change the state of death to life.
The brighter the light, the greater the focus.
It is said I am bright.
I ask how can I turn up the candle power?
