Dear Colleagues Across the Aisles
“Pray for All Us Sinners”
Jesse James’ Girlfriend,
Bombshell McGee. has
this Tattooed on her
forehead.
SIN: from Indo European:
es, esse – “to be” – being,
essence – hence "real":"true."
A counter-intuitive to the
common sense to
conjure.
Conviction of Sin
Conviction of
Essence.
Being.
Being
sure.
For aren’t we all? she says;
I myself am almost able to
be hating the sin rather than
the sinners—us poor suckers
seeing the reasons why I hate
manifested & embodied
(symptom and syndrome) in
the-poor-sinner how else would
I see it: the sin as opposed to the
sinner? how stunning not to see
THRU Glen Beck and his black
board, say, or my neighbor’s
poverty just like me needy for
love and salutes: writing our
asses off dancing our asses off
jogging our asses off teaching
and preaching and grooming
and stroking and pleasing
and practicing our asses
off to make perfect.
see me
hear me
touch me
feed me
all of us on Face Book as it were
friends
fans
joiners
critics
saviors
What is IT that makes me so
needy my poverty with me
always so greedy?.
No—that’s obvious.
What is IT that makes me
a closet-close it cover-it-up
and deny? Include? Exclude? .
Occlude!
No. That’s obvious, too.
What is IT prevents me
coming Out! Out!
Damnit Spot: too
comfortable in
my own sin?
IT, I said. The SIN
as opposed to sinners:
(mere manifestations,
mere embodiment,
closet cases like
me)
Not IT itself:
Being. Essence.
