  Greetings ink spirit,

  
  hey bro, you're not there alone lol
  (or ars you sis?)

  
  well first of all, i admire your
  poetic talent.

  
  literary talents periodically go thru
  that deep bottomless darkness.

  
  guess why?

  
  ...

  
  ...

  
  ...

   

  
  right! they're having periods!
  they're women. god is the man
  who impregnates them with inspiration.

  
  there you're in the pain of impending delivery.
  you're 9 month pregnant.
  who is the baby?  YOU!

  
  right. some species have a special
  privilege of metamorphosis.
  let's call it, Phoenician species.

  
  one thing i'd like to share with you is,
  i'm alone, and my life sucks.
  i really hate it.

  
  somewhere in the book of revelation in bible,
  there is this scene:
  "in the day, people will seek death
  but death will run away from them."

  
  that's me! i chain smoke like hell
  but cancer is running away from me!

  
  these days, i think of death as
  "the permanent vacation" that aerosmith sang about.

  
  i know that my sins were forgiven with
  the blood of Jesus Christ,
  so i know that i'd go to heaven if i die now.
  (well if you ain't exposed to bible,
  just dismiss this as bullshit garbage)

  
  but i also know that i won't die,
  because i have works to do,
  the works assigned by God.

  
  --more to come, if you don't mind of course ;>

  wink ink :>

  
  about smoking...

  
  hey, do you smoke? most writers do
  and i happen to be one.
  so i smoke.

  
  if you don't smoke,
  dude, you're a better human being than me.

  
  one of my ex, who happened to be a therapist,
  told me once:
  "smoking is a slow suicide."

  
  when i was with her, she made me quit,
  and i quit.
  once we broke up, i resumed.

  
  i met her in salsa dance,
  not in her office lol.
  well we broke up because
  she gave me an ultimatum,
  "let me have therapy session with you.
  if you don't change your personality,
  we won't work."

  
  that's the story lol.
  we're still good friends of course.

  
  anywho.  you said 'void, empty.'
  good for you, for it's time to refill
  with new vitality!

  
  you said 'dying.'
  good for you, for it's time for salvation to eternity.

  
  you said 'alone, no one there.'
  good for you, for you're ready for the bridegroom,
  the Christ.

  
  you said 'save me, save me.'
  rest assured, for God heard your agony.

  
  --secretary
