The Spiritual - Material Nexus known as THE TRUTH
The Spiritual/Material Nexus is Biology and its material antithetical responses to "The Laws of Nature".
That process is fundamentally "Cooperative"; a symbiosis based on "Trust".
The successful Social Organism, "Civilization", operates the same way.
President Trump never speaks "The Truth".
A "Faithless" Government is a failure calling for immediate remediation or abolition to safeguard our Individual values.

Why Your Cities Burn, Part VI...Have you ever seen true madness
take full possession of a man?
Gobayth’s dreams of coming home
were now all well and truly damned.
It’s said he screamed for half the night,
so much that it damaged his throat,
and it was not long after that
he started slaying ‘settled’ folk.
The first target was a merchant
travelling with his concubine
and his two slaves...

Why Your Cities Burn, Part V...A jolt ran though the broken men,
like wraiths they rose, streamed for the door,
Gobayth waved them on until
nobody remained anymore.
They raced on towards the small hut
where all of the pick-aces lay,
some guards were starting to notice,
running about every which way.
Gobayth wished the poor men luck,
but he did not follow their path,
and instead ran to the...

Why Your Cities Burn, Part IV...After a bit her cries died down,
everyone could see she was dead,
a small head hung between her thighs,
mother and son covered in red.
He had seen so much callousness,
but this he just couldn’t believe,
it was after seeing this horror
Gobayth decided to leave.
Of course, it took some time to plan,
in the day the watch was intense,
men along...

Why Your Cities Burn, Part III...Gobayth’s mind was nearly crushed,
this was his life now, it appeared,
and all sorts of depressing thoughts
flooded his mind that first half-year.
Was this what life was really like
for most of the souls in this world?
An endless, unpaid drudgery,
with slashing whips always unfurled?
Was this how ‘settled’ people lived?
Is so, then why bother with life?
How could those outside...

Why Your Cities Burn, Part II...Finally Gobayth came to
a devastated mountainside,
the trees and soil stripped away,
slaves cutting out blocks of great size.
They led him to a wooden hut
where several gold coins were exchanged,
the mine owner said, “Bring him out,
fit him for his own set of chains!”
He was forced out into the pit,
driven forward by several guards,
who showered him with stinging...

Why Your Cities Burn, Part II’ve seen many look to the sky
and to the gods earnestly plead,
what sins have the committed that
require so many to bleed?
Why does Lord Diyal ride the lands,
do things that make your stomach churn,
his soldiers loot and pillage all…
Why do they make your cities burn?
I can tell you that it begins
with a young man named Gobayth,
a...

An Ebon Human Nature PerspectivePity, we’re not on their endangered species list;
Just the list of who should be least cared about:-
They fight for red wolves,
but still erode ebon lives;
we’re endangered too:-
What an abomination,
In our nation,
In today’s situation:-
For our lives to matter,
Time for us to gather,
And get it all together:
Pandemic is the Oppressor Syndrome;
We, oppressively murdering our own:-
Let us be...

YOU, ME, USJust look carefully at you and me,
Innocent victims of bigoted inequality,
In a nation physically built via bigotry,
Of the sweat, the blood, and death,
Of our ancestors fighting to be truly free,
And endowed with faithfully won equanimity:-
Know the reality of just who here, we be,
For we’re not the heirs of diabolical slaves;
But the children of free Africans...

said, “My peoples’ laws forbid it, both of us would be hanged.”

Conquered, Part VII...With that he went to a small chest, retrieved a bound-up scroll,
and her eyes went quite wide with shock when the thing was unrolled,
’twas her emancipation, and he’d signed it with his name,
“It’s all that I can do,” he said, “To save you future pain.
And you can take the children, I’ll make no move to...

Conquered, Part VI...A throat clear by the tall doorway, and she saw Geren there,”
he said, “Lindone, that slave is mine, and I don’t like to share.”
The warrior growled and said,“Your hall is cold of late.”
Said Geren,“There’s brothels in town where men like you can stay.”
The warrior snapped off a curse, and stormed from the kitchen,
she thought Geren...

Conquered, Part V...The days that followed left no doubt on her master’s feelings,
the love he showed to both of them left her poor mind reeling,
he barely left his daughter’s side, so besotted was he,
this man who’d helped destroy her tribe, how could such a thing be?
He even said, “You asked me one what is it you should...

Conquered, Part IV...She went with him and she had to, inside a knot of dread,
distracted by all of the things that she feared lay ahead,
disrobed with her mind in a haze, she would not meet his eyes,
complied mechanically when he said, “Now, open your thighs.”
Expected to feel his weight, and the fast beat of his heart,
but Geren...

Conquered, Part III...And come the day she had free reign, provided she not leave,
no heavy tasks upon her, she had worked more while still free.
She explored the whole of the keep, she ready his ancient books,
went down to the kitchen and gossiped freely with the cooks.
She recognized this wasn’t what she thought had been in store,
and honestly,...
