______transformation______

we live in a world that is false at its core.

a world overwhelmed and flowing with beautiful people and moments ~ while simultaneously submerged in a sea of despair; of repression and fear and deceit.

a world where the pain and sorrow has become absorbed and integrated; is considered the norm; the necessary; the ultimate reality.. ~ and is too often invisibly waded thru; is too often managed and swallowed ~ held deep beneath backs of throats like breath ~ behind veneers of forced smiles who shine like billboards of what once were teeth; what once were eyes..

we live in this world, nevertheless, and yet, it is our own choice, day after day, whether to resist or remain passive under its control ~ whether to seek to outmaneuver, evade and overturn ~ with an im-possible compassion buried deep within us ~ with humility and a soft core that loves itself and all that it touches; with a dynamism and eagerness to be still with the animals of our defeats ~ to be still within our coldest, darkest, lonest moments: when those cold, red eyes of terror.. in these.. our darkest caves.. remind us yet again that yes, they do exist; we too are here, still, within and amongst you.

and yet, the labyrinth of dank and unknown tunnels within our selves is the only means to achieve that light ~ a light that will last and can be brought back to the people from whence we came. the light that now exists will not sustain us.

yes, it is our mission ~ yours ~ to seek that fuel for the fire of your people.

and yes. we are here. battling and pursued by these two wolves within us.

and yes.

the one that is fed, is the one that will breed.
