Stripped Clean
Can you imagine a day
Stripped clean of all distractions
Where two people could hold each other
And shelter each other from the world outside
One Man
One Woman
No Games
No Lies
Just Truth
Just Love
I
hope
you know
that
You Can
come
visit me
...
Anytime
you
need
to
You
need
but to
place
yourself
in
my
eyes
and
in
my
arms
I
will
do
the
rest
...
Don’t need
no other
people
Don’t want
no company
but you
Shut up
in a
room
some
place
Just want
to
lock
the door
No one
knocking
but
you
and
I
Get up
in
there
and
cry
good
fashion
You can
let
go
...
let it
all
flow
Cry
until
your
hearts
content
Filling
the
room
with our
mad
rhythm
and
the sound
of our
sighs
No
bother
No
worry
Just another
day
Stripped
clean
of
all
distractions
...
I'll leave the light on...

11yno-not in this dualistic world. transcend it and yes-
i could then.
Cory Garcia
11yYou are awesome! I love the way you think!I think I understand you saying that transcendence is not a destination... for it is said to both have infinite meaning and at the same time no meaning... then if not a destination then it is a state of being and non being... so therefore it is an experience...akin I believe to many that we are meant to have... ;)A good cry and shelter is a wonderful experience... flawed... broken... our shared humanity... priceless!You are one deep thinker brother and you are not as old as you used to be...

11ypeople can hardly do all that, what about the bisexuals? ;)
Cory Garcia
11yWhy can't people do all that?Do you mean from a theological standpoint?I think all theologies offer solutions to their hurdles for experiencing this...Reconciling Oneself to GOD:It is true that many theologies speak against this type of closeness outside of specified parameters... do they say why...A common question (not necessarily in this regard):I am told that many often ask who am I... could it be that the who is merely their attempt to say why am I... without this type of love or connection... without this type of passion... its understandable that feeling lost and alone would follow... how is life without passion even life... how can you know who... if the why is unfulfilled...The answer to who... I believe... stems from the why...I am unapologetically passionate...Without passion... life is wasted...The answer... I believe... with passion... is to live... be in communion with GOD... seek... question... argue... shout... be passionate in that relationship... work it out with GOD... you don't need me or others interfering in that relationship...Yes it is true and well known that Judeo-Christian theology... does have explicit instructions on sexuality... and on a great many more...What is not known is my stance and since you ask ;)I do believe in the Judeo-Christian tennants of faith... I do not however condone the hatred that occurs... and I certainly do not condone the withholding of love for any reason... While I have not had to face the inner turmoil that one faces who struggles to reconcile themselves to their beliefs... I would imagine it to be painful and disenfranchising...People struggling to fit themselves and their desires into such a theology certainly do not need me complicating their relationship with GOD... what they do need is love and support... and that is what we are called to do...Those who do not subscribe to a theology that they have trouble reconciling themselves to probably feel much the same... and they to deserve love and support... and that again is what we are called to do...To that affect I would simply state all I said above and the following...Why am I:
I am a firm believer that we all need love and a relationship with GOD... I have never... nor would I ever... withhold my love over such a thing... the hunger for love is greater than the hunger for bread... without one the body dies... without the other the soul...I was taught to love the Lord my GOD with all my heart mind soul and strength... and to love my brothers and sisters as myself...I choose to live this way...When asked I will attempt to convey the Judeo-Christian tennants of faith for what they are...Jesus taught many things and summed it up in 2 commandment s...
Matthew 22 36-40If you have any questions on theology I am happy to try and answer them :)Note: I would imagine there are many who would read some of my works (the more sexually passionate ones) and look at many of the things I have done and still do and think I am unworthy of heaven in their eyes... thank GOD I don't have to be perfect in everyone's eyes... and thank GOD for our shared humanity...I know you did not mean it that way... but there are many who could be hurt and feel alone by such comments about gay or bi or a great many things... The important thing is to let them know they are not alone and they are loved... and for them... we will always... leave the light on!!! ;)
