What was once impossible now summons us to dismantle the walls between
ourselves and our sisters and brothers, to dissolve the distinctions
between flesh and spirit, to transcend the present limits of time and

used to tolerate. A second point of reality. It's the loving thing to do.
What's being revealed here? Dogs don't have things wrong. Wrong
disempowers people. Upsets indicate a "right" that's been
violated. Notice when you are angry that you are the only one around. The
only constant thing is you. Business is made up. It's invented. If it

Honesty is a word
that is hardly ever spoken
Deceit is a word
that makes hearts broken
Love is a word
spoken many, many times
Hate is a word

Trying is a word

Breeze is a word
talking about the wind
Fresh is a word
telling how to begin.
