NOTE: 

The riddle of existence was solved for me by a news photograph showing the skeletal remains of churchgoers massacred in a region ravaged by genocide.  Peering through an eye socket of a skull in the photo to see evidence of existence inside the cranial cavity, I found none.  However, imagining myself suspended in a black and frigid Void has often engendered within me a somewhat startling sense of a Pervasive Presence of an Authentic and Eternal Reality, a TOTALITY-of-Pure-Being infinitely serious about Transcendent Goodness and wholly absorbed in bringing about the fullest possible expressions of the Divine Perfection.  (2002)

"THE AIM"

Instead of absolutely naught, an

Everlasting God--Invisible, Intangible,

yet nothing else, in fact, exists,

however many worlds evolve.

A Presence grasped by faith alone

from sheer necessity, as all eyes formed

to gaze abroad are certain never to behold

the Only Truth there is to see.

This Sole and Self-existent GOOD,

Unfathomably Real, phantasmagoria creates

through which to share and amplify

a Love and Holiness Ideal.

For SELF-expression to occur through

selves illusory, the smoke must yearn for

soot removal and be wild to exchange

lustration for impurity.

Once soiled air is made pristine, the Kingdom,

Glorious, comes--One WILL toward

Joyous Heights ascending reaching Splendour

marking well the final triumph of the Son!
