Only random words can describe my consciousness. It is that very fact that l struggle in finding a purpose. Or rather in believing that l need a purpose. I remember my dreams asking why the magnum opus remains unfinished. Why do l await a merry song, to swing me away from my mind?

Unfinished Notes
Love for knowledge drives me to read, explore and find details in every bead, Knowledge is a blessing given to me, I shall not confine myself nor not let me be. Life is made for being explored, Love is there to be lived, Knowledge is there not to be admired but for Sophia to be achieved. Conquerors of distant lands, Poets of the most brilliant minds, Scientists of the greatest imagination they are all proud of their inventions. Why shouldn't we do the same?

Sophia
Seas of swaying green reduced to gray city skylines (the triumphant results of our modern enlightenment) Slicked oil waters pulse from the refineries, defeated heads held down against the cold winds walk the streets. Malaise grips the populace, our attention at every turn deftly averted to the trivial. Welcome one, welcome all, to the Anthropocene. Smoke stacks bellowing, pockets full of printed greenbacks thickening, the overwhelming scents of greed and gluttony bleed into everything. Throw your trash to the streets, stomp the last embers and smear ash on the wall, Look around and you will see humanities closing scenes. Welcome one, welcome all, to the Anthropocene. It seems in the end truth has left us, hope has evacuated, it’s speakers replaced with puppets That dance and masquerade on taught strings. Come in my friends, take your seats in the audience, The show has already begun! The lights are dimming and the pieces well set, Welcome one, welcoming all, to the Anthropocene. Continents ablaze, reduced to decayed black. The streets of your home flooded, Mother Nature holding on by a trembling thread, And in all of our brightest intellect, We do not reknit the thread. Instead of reversing our own mistakes, instead of adjusting our sails to the changing winds, we hold the scissors to that trembling string and begin to cut with a smile. Manicured life, Monocultured lawns perfectly maintained through the drought, appearances kept up through the drowning monsoon winds. Welcome, my dearest friends, to the end of our days, whether you agree to them or not, Welcome to the first conscious mass extinction, brought to you by the height of human innovation Welcome, my brothers and sisters, to the Anthropocene.

There, come the sounds of shrieks and shriek And here, comes a newly prepared tweet For how long will we remain silent, Goes another ambulance with a loud siren The missiles are again ready to **** Loaded with a thousand kills, a bill? There's goes another missile with the millionth **** Here are we, ready to take another pill God, be the judge of the tyrants Neither are we going anywhere still

'Depression by Oppression'
Wherever you're at this very minute God has a special assignment for you, and I'm wondering are you in it? Are you even aware? Are you moving forward? Would you even dare? It took me some time, and I'm still getting there. But I'm reaching for it every moment, and I refuse to be scared. If you take a moment to let God be God, He will show you how what He has to give is better than all things you could ever want.
