Dear Fragile Communicators

Is passion a warm feeling or a cold asset? A uniting vision or a fragmented virtue? Or is passion both mutually held motions toward and away from curious courageous contagious active hope and incapacitating despair? Is personal knowledge, consilience of feeling touch taste fragrance sound sight confluence of all sensory receptors? none dissonantly denied, co-passionate when confirmed by even one significant transparent vulnerable Other Or denied, neglected, abused, shot at and down, defamed, commodified, enslaved, reduced to vacuous utility of thought without roots impassioning warm-blooded reality of feelings. Could holistically embraced knowledge grow any virtue less than compassion? Would wisdom's wealth promote dispassionate autonomy? viciously fragmenting crumbs of former health.
