He is come!
He is come!
He is come!
Which sounds just like,
He is scum!
He is scum!
He is scum!
Remember, the devil is in the details.

Jesus In Camouflage
As I understand it, Jesus may've had two related reasons for not wishing to be identified as the Son of God right from the beginning of His ministry. The first could've been that in the society in which He lived, such an identification would've proved to be fatal without concrete, indisputable, evidence that He was a manifestation of God the Almighty.
The second reason for not being revealed overtly as God ties into the first and is concerned with the nature of salvation. Given that salvation hinges on one's faith in God and in His actions--such as, but not limited to, the resurrection of Jesus--and that faith is defined as belief in the absence of material, existential, proof/evidence, then the possibility of faith would've been eliminated had the truth of Jesus-is-God been made manifest and proof beyond the possibility of being doubted.
The reality of Jesus's miracles and the truth of His teaching can only require faith if Jesus is seen by the people as being from/of God but not as being God The Most High Himself. As long as Jesus performs miracles and presents teachings that are made possible by God, faith in God and in the actions and sayings of Jesus, the Face of God to the people of Earth (and to the entirety of Creation) remains possible, and to some, even self-evident (though I am not in the least of the opinion that that would be for the best).
Faith as belief in an intellectual vacuum is well suited to meditation but, only after one is satisfied with one's definition of "belief."
Dreamt of a Memory
Lost in thought when
Of a sudden my
Breath caught, snagged
On a memory.
In hills high, a circle
Of my fiercest friends:
Was my warmth born
From the flaming
Hearth or from the
Burning hearts
Encircling me?
Outside, the snow in
Silence fell but
Inside I was
Insulated by the
Wealth of the love in
Which I was
Warmly ensconced.
Chronoflash Sequence
Clocks are not responsible for time.
Clocks display delusions.
Cloaked inside of cases
Time is duration.
Time is subjectivity
And its subject is Time.
Mirror, mirror, on the floor,
The time has come for
Many more for there is Time.
Time matters and matter gathers.
Objective Time is the Time of objects,
And so, once sampled,
Time can be measured but need not be.
Decisions are momentary.
Time does not care, for
Time's not aware and that's
For the best since awareness is death.
In dreams Time is manipulated, then
You awake to life as a slave of
Time. We try to run but
Aways turn to return,
And return yet again.
That's our wretched doom,
A sentence with no room to move,
To which we are forever fated.
"Having too little Time" is a mirage.
Everything is in Time.
"Waiting long enough" is arbitrary.
Time is not the 4th dimension; our
Perception of it is.
You try to ignore it but
You cannot affect Time.
Time exists with and in
The mind yet out of it.
Time is an eternal never.
Time is what is
In the box.
Think about it.
Being is what to Time? Ask: how long has
It been? How long has it been It? What
Do you mean by It? By mean?
That, too, is philosophy.
"Give it Time." Why? Where did its go?
Tomorrow will come and be.
Are we sure? And until when?
Until nullity.
To be in Time is but a lie,
Self-told to cope with
The vast expanse that asks
For the small mercy we can
Provide, to forget that
We once knew but know
No more.
Ignorance is bliss but
For what is that is
Not we. Give up on eternity
To save what's left
Just in time.
"Shave off some Time," is a
Common saying, so
Please save me a shaving....
Then warp Time using Now
To manifest the Paradox.
"It's immeasurable." How can you know?
You have "just enough Time," so
Why be concerned?
Chronomenclature can fascinate, yes?
If one "has time" do they have it all?
Eternity makes Time an anachronism.
Once duration is infinite
Manifestation is done with it.

Bundle
"Bundle." What a funny word. Can you have a bundle of just anything? No. You can't have a bundle of Lego blocks. Why not? You just can't. You got the wrong stuff and you will know it's wrong just by saying it: "A bundle of toasters." See? But if it could theoretically be a bundle, how do you know that you have the right amount of it to form a bundle?
"Bundle." What a funny word.
