There should be no sin in taking from the earth what has been provided. In this land of death what else could be asked of me but to tread proudly and participate in the world as much or little as satisfies me. Perhaps someone in your position might feel shamed by this lavish and selfish lifestyle,....But it was you yourself who first made me understand. You planted the seeds of doubt to grow, and despite all odds and tribulations returned again into my life, to monitor their progress.
Of coarse this was inside me to begin with, the potential for such destruction. You saw straight into my heart, saw me as the wolf i would become. You took my hand and pulled me close.... your thumb tries to push the soft wool back to reveal the silver coat beneath. But there is no give at your command. It seemed I rarely failed to surprise you in some way or another.
And more than anything else we do love the possibility of novelty. A toy of some sort, outside the ordinary enough to distract us, give us something to wrap our heads around before we eat you whole.
Sometimes I pretend that person isn't a part of me. Maybe she would run away like a puppy through an open fence. But she loves me, and she knows me, and she is so much of the strength inside of me.
We have no Love, only all the Understanding in the universe.
Insight into the one thing that could end all of this.
