With armor strong, and skin of gold, I am through which the Word is told. With thoughts of home, repentant mind, I bring the truth to those I find. With memories fresh, of faceless horde, I walk my path back to the Lord. With my kindred I have fought, Through evil deeds, yet righteous thought. With beams of glory, shining bright, I shall bring them to God’s light. With lips so bound and mind contrite, I shall fly, and I shall fight. My eyes drift to the endless sea, As my ship turns to debris. For in few moments, I will have died, I thank the Heaven I denied. With spots of white, on ink black sky, I draw breath and prepare to die. With structure breaking, flesh to burn, I wake again, I will return. old poem. ---

(Poor variation on classic themes. I apologize, I am not a poet. The originals are the sayings “The tide goes out, the tide comes in, the shore remains” and “Fate walks on twisted paths” and the warriors mantra Come darkness I am the candle in the hand of Fate Come war I am the weapon in the hand of Fate Come death I am a child, holding the hand of Fate) ---

Entropy is the measure of what we do not know, physics tells us unavoidably it must grow. Of that which moves large and wide the notion gets forever lost to microscopic motion. No matter how we try, as the years go by, no soul escapes that law sending us to a grave cold and raw. Entropy depends on the spectator, there is not unique chosen dictator, Anyone by looking at the picture reduces a pure quantum state to their own mixture. As lack of knowledge is bound to grow , to absolute Truth this is a blow from which it cannot recover, and so this “Thuth” we’ll never discover. Of this there is a clear symptom familiar to all with a shred of wisdom: All can speak the truth honest as a pup but still the stories don’t have to line up! ---

Fleeting warmth, biting cold; 'Tis with a heart of gold that I grow old. But gold, though lining Imperial walls and coffers, weighs heavy on one soul. To know faith is to know the human from the not, and human as we all are, all tied in serpent’s knot; We crave to brave, to gaze, to lust Yet made are we from frivolous crust. As capsuleers flee from one system, another, the next; we leave behind but astral specks. Fleeting, biting; temporary.
