Being Holy Doesn't Pay Very Well

Being Holy Doesn't Pay Very Well

The Holidays Aren't That Great Either.

Being Holy Doesn't Pay Very Well


Touring my eye, thrusted the rim of

The Divine -- As it laid a Fall-streak Hole 

Unsightly gorged by Fin-foots, tearing

though it every time they Fly -- 


Touring my eye, thrusted the edge of

The Virgin Sky -- As it laid like a Bible --

Gorged out, nesting a Fall-streak hole, ripped

from the Cover to the Back-Side. --

do you have your

classical liberalism in check, sir?

I was antipating a scathing rebellious rant, yet instead, to my suprise I read something, subtle, visual and neat, well done

Funny, ironic, that's how I have been feeling lately, ripped from the cover to the backside. Thank you-I had the feeling, but not the words!

i'm having trouble getting a handle on bible imagery. i do agree with the title. i guess you don't get what you had invested in return, and it's just a disillusionment in the end.

Maybe you're not doing it right? lol..jk , Did you see the capital "I" in the sky? I did, in the clouds, not an eye like one would immediately expect out of an I , But a actual "I" perfectly formed. I quit smoking that day, my body is a temple, lol...love this write Cole.

A holiness that is on the way to self realization comes back to view itself as a friend in need. But we hope it'll stay for the duration thereafter, there is much we need to learn of holiness.
