Do You Know My Name?
Temperance! What small favors do you impart? What grace do you bestow?
What have I gained?
What have I lost?
Self indulgence. Mindless self indulgence. Mindless self indulgence bereft of consequence?
Inconsistence breeds doubt. Untreated doubt transforms into incredulity. Incredulity, when unknown, cannot be addressed and therefore cannot be negated.
Acuity! Why have you failed me?
Perception! What have you ailed me?
Sincerity was always my intention. To love and to be loved was always my greatest dream. To attend was a pleasure. To be attended to wasn’t a necessity but rather a very precious gift.
Love! Oh, love. Wolves would never have been so cunning. Sheep would never have been so inviting. Vultures would never have been so thorough.
Love?
Do you dwell on distant shores? Are you as close as my skin? Do you lay in wait disguised as transient opposition. Do you know my name?
Do you know my name?

And now a few great musics - cause I haven't posted any in a quite some time.
