#fait
Stone-like, steel eyes biting down the sweet, polished apple. Silky smooth skin slithering on the thoughts of the tempted. Desire of the improper, cause conflicts to the conflicted. Poison awaits, with 2000 different faits.

Snake Bite
I’m catching myself on fire I’m hurling myself into the unknown What for? Who will I be? If one is to be a martyr, Shouldn’t they have a reason? I was to succeed And to succeed I must become The best that I can possibly be I fear the unknown It leaves me shaking each day A quake that no affection can cure Where I’ll go But I will have to make the trip Run into the arms of my fait And trust that she will be kind to me And will only want the best for me

Abyss
Life is not a cigarette box. It is not replaceable upon reaching the bud of existence. It does not come bearing a warning label that tells you that it can destroy you inside, but rather expects you to find the words in the smoke. And when you place your fait between your lips, and ignite it, life does not allow you to throw it to the ground, or squish it into an ash tray. Rather, your fait actually begins to breathe in your smoke instead. Life is not a cigarette box, rather a single cigarette. Handed to you by the faint shadow of yourself, and given to you by the distant memory of who you once were.

Life is not a Cigarette Box
"In distant parallel dimension, 17 years ago we met, And just like that, without intention Our life became a single thread. But then you left to roam the forest And i got drafted in the rain. We said goodbye, but we had promised That someday we will meet again. And so time passed, i split the army And i had wondered where you’re at. You traveled almost every country On the vast Old World continent. I came to meet you in a valley Of vast, eternal, endless grass. And from then on we wrote our story Creating magic as we pass. It feels a bit surrealistic To know that somewhere in the world This path has actually existed And our story has been told. But in our actual dimension, Where our story won't be known. We have to fight our intuition So our lives will not be blown. I think a lot about this concept, Of spinning doors or simple fait. If things do happen for a reason What is the purpose of this pain? This is a complicated feeling, Conflicted between truth and hope. I wish i understood the meaning, Of life, the universe and Love."

17 Years
For Gene Brewer, the Creator of K-PAX, Robert Porter and prot Life is hard.                                     We are toiling painfully With determined desperation With tears and bitterness With fear and agony and with strong doubts  that we can even go on! With Human tenacity! With Human  skill! With the cleverness of Chimps With bigger brains. We are building a better Universe And evolving into What Love becomes When Love is beyond comprehension! Science and Faith are fiery lovers Dancing a tango all through Time Hugging and parting Grasping and rejecting Whirling and twirling Fighting as fiery Lovers fight Shouting and slapping and flinging things! The Neighbors shake their heads in exasperation! In lulls between the fights They hug together In the velvet darkness of the Universe Embracing with their mutual love, Gazing with shared longings At the far and friendly stars! They embrace with passion In peace and desperation! With one small remnant of hope That things can somehow be better! Out comes a brawny Love Child! Growing as a Seed to entwine the Universe! Doing what all life does: Getting bigger! Getting stronger! Learning! Playing as all Children play With the pretty Universe! Wondering! Wandering! And becoming more and more! What a sight when His muscles grow! What an Einstein when His mind does! In time as all good Children do He prepares a place of rest for His Parents. Brings them Peace at last For Life is hard But then we die…. And then we get to enjoy it!
