The Cynic (to listen is to love)

Contributed by iodinelove on Thursday, 23rd March 2006 @ 04:44:56 PM in AEST
Topic: abstract

To listen is to love.
The murder of life is to fall blind to the truth,
deaf to the traitorous man in his obligation.
I want you to understand.

I have never met a man or woman that I have not loved.

The murderer. The junkie. The mad prophet. The beggar. The serpent's tongue. The loafer. The whore.

All deserve clemency. All deserve life.

It is not in the nature of man to love.
To look upon the lulling mountains
is to look upon the nature of man himself.

See how they wander;
how their magnificence imbues creation,
how they are unmoving in their stringencies?

It is not in their nature to be moved.

I believe that we necessitate our emotion,
that we force ourselves to feel in order
to objectify our perception, our sense
of worthlessness.

Is it emotion to sense our worthlessness,
or is the abjection an instinctual truth?

I have watched for many years the candidness of nature, and have, in my observation, found a habitual truth.

It is ***** all out there.
