Here, re think the name that may not be spoken, in light of the curse brought by knowing evil, and good, especially, in this little light of mine, which I vowed, as a child to not allow the accuser to quench, AI nada gonna put it out. My duty is to fight and **** to keep it bright. I'll be a warrior under god. But then the darkness of the pledge, to the flag, {I am six-years old, ******** allegiance?} locked in, duty bound... endure the contest, and laugh off the fear of dying. - look out my window, watch that black lizard - doing pushups, signaling in my peripheral vision - listen, does it look like that lizard is showing off - strutting its blue belly as hook-up bait? Not t'me. I think he's singing in lizard pitch my ears notice, but my senses lack the filters to sing along, lizard songs, no fear, no roadrunners or cats near, and it is a fine day to be cold blooded, running on the rocks, running on the sun. Singing lizard loud, All that's done been done is done, all that ain't, ain't ain't it wonderful, what may be? Yep, that is that lizard's song as he run along, stopping every few feet to dance, I swear, for sheer lizard level joy.

Heavy human sense of shame and blame

So, it ain't mea culpa, things just don't stay miserable here any more...
