a work in process -- i'm sharing this as a way of saying i'm still here it's about the only thing i've written in a week... there is also that bit about truth being required in inward parts... comments please ==30==
I am a wounded man wounded by time and life by the worlds malice and my own waywardness. I am a wounded man living among wounded who hide their wounds from other, and themselves I am a wounded man lashing out in my pain wounding others, being wounded in return. . .

Blessing be upon your house, the transformation of a better day, the test of life and faith, the pain that our brother felt upon the cross. The messenger of thy father let thy wounds heal in the name of the almighty, for he as you and I.
