Cynicism (Acrostic)

Could I be my own worst enemy,

Yearning for perfection in this world and knowing it can never be?

Nothing can satisfy me as I watch the cruelty of man,

Inflicting pain and suffering on each other,

Crimes–inexcusable by any of God’s sacred texts.

Irreverent and blasphemous fools are these

Scandalous in their deep seated hatred

Maring the kindness and love of the doctrines they so staunchly claim to defend.

    Our actuality as projected part of our whole. Salvation in becoming what we are, validated as a part, by a whole being alive in creation. Nothing is denied of our reality, our poles , breaths, and depths, including the nooks and crannies, by the whole body who projects our all – including our heavens and gods, others, worlds, and many selfs – our whole self.

      Thank you Carol, I like to think so, though this is not a place that I like to spend a great deal of time in.

    There is still hope yet in the world, though it can be very difficult to see.

      Yes, you are right, there is always hope for change in this world, but I was having difficulty seeing yesterday.
