  1. Thanks, It says much now as then. We forget that he won't leave us but sometimes we leave him.
  2. They question if asked is taken with much hostility and is yet to be answered even with a qualified guess (hypothesis). Likewise with the vast magority of religious persons the answer given back is a pat "he always was". Therefor there is an effort to not ask the question by both. It would be interesting to have someone seriously ask the question and find the answer. ---What was before all that is and was. ---
  3. By Day Heroes.... Young boy white Knight, Abused but for others; The boy did fight. Young boy silent priest, Though his troubled sleep; Kept his friends secret beasts. Young boy hero ours, With many private fears; Helped friends conquer theirs. By day heroes die, And priests wrongly accused; White suits stain easily. Young Man means well, Bled red to protect; Land where you dwell. Young man Brother confessor, Accused wrong of much; Forgives such of another. Young man given much, Himself had not; That others had such. By day heroes die, And Priests stand accused; White suits stain easily! A true hero downed, A target still himself; Continues fighting for ground. Many good priest rebound, And acquit they themselves; Once on holy ground. By day heroes die, And Priests stand accused; White suits stain easily! (Perhaps one should never wear white?)
  4. Total Blasphemy Did god first create Adam, Or Atom create God? And if, one the other from, From where did the first come? Can this question be answered, Or be made clear by you? This question we’ve no answer in the least, Is denied by both “science” and priest. (I almost didn't post this as it might cause arguments and that is not the intent of the poem.)
  5. The Airman, the Officer, never a Gentleman He lays awake at midnight alone, Half sitting and half prone. He lives in color and florescent lights, But he dreams of candles in black and white. He knows things he can not let known. He has memories of a nightmare, However that was his life. He no longer has freighting dreams, But he no longer has any dreams. He knows things he may not let known. He has lived through hell, However of it he won’t tell. He has dreams of a child’s innocent life. But his was filled by trouble & strife. He knows things he will not let known. He has met triumph and disaster, However yet to meet his master. He holds secrets he must forget, But across his thoughts the memories have set. He knows things he can not, may not, will not, let known. Grounded. Civilian, and Still not a Gentleman Sits ‘wake the Bride in another room, Six months now the groom. He has dreams of a happy married life, Of which he can give his beautiful wife. Still things can, may and will not be known. I wrote this some time ago under a pen name but as it never was published except on an old website that's years dead. Here it is again for you guys.
  6. I have recently been told of a source for clerical supplies and apparel. If you have yet to find the items you need you can try this site. http://www.livinggracecatalog.com/ This is a hint from ken collins (http://www.kencollins.com) who was good enough to answer an email I sent him asking the question about where to go to lower out of pocket expenses when trying to dress for the job.
