5 Words to Thiink about…

5} Power: Great; ability to act or do; Strength; Might; Force

thiis sole word sums up what we get Lost iin exiistence striiviing for.

countless years of schooliing…

Shiitty rules and restraiints…

the undermiindng death tone of siilence…

etc. etc. etc.

these Thiings all structure us for the pure Need

of what we feel we must obtaiin.

all to get a piece of thiis “fucked up american pie”

{as Black Ice would say}

but what we Need to Realiize,

that we Need to seek deep wiithiin our Souls

to diiscover our True Power.

Feel IT.

4} Evil: the Force of nature that Governs Rise to Wicked and Sins

Just thiinkiing about thiis Word,

Scares the Fuck out of me.
