"Let me #assure you," said the #official salesman. "The upgrade to your cybernetics will #expand your #soul."
"My friend said you downgraded his when he ran out of credits."
"Well of course. Ecclesiastical bliss is subject to the usual terms and conditions."

Growing up in Philly in the 50s & 60s gave me a musical education that I doubt you could get today. I heard everything from Classical to Doo-wop to #Soul and more. American Bandstand originated in Philly & we’d watch it after we got home from school. How I wished I could go on that show.

my final submission,
prepare to be regaled,
skin and soul,
mind and mouth
with my gifts of desire,
lusting fire,
and be assured
that you are my target
and this is my final
arrow

I am at peace amidst the trees
#regaled presence comforts me
Spring's rebirth our welcomed bloom
Mother Nature's fertile womb
I write my best sat waterside
sodden earth #assures rising tide

we play a forest
eating indigo and bled crimson
wanting to groove happenstance
chances taken
old soul fins to limbs across a fine of moonlight
streaming in over a pie scent begin
a beg kite skin over bones
a stardust melody
shuffle shoes, whorls
beyond words
Love says

Not my soul
Don't have one
Chemical
sack of goo
impulses
electric
Me? No soul
Faithless man
understand?
#tricube #vssdaily #soul
I love people of faith even though I am not of that ilk. I'm just a sack of goo... but a very nice sack of goo
the deepest allure
#assures
every contour
in a body of touch
the warm wave
invades
every graze
in a cradled clutch
the radiant #regale
impels
every cell
in a mutual thrust
the sensated #soul
annuls
every control
in a conjugated crush
forever on hold
in a body of touch
#emoetry #vss365 #vssdaily
My soul laid bare for
All to see, lines bleed from a
Thousand wounds within.

“Not to be the token goose,” Antin said. “But isn’t that like describing the Dreth? Every time we’ve fought them, they seem to come back even more conniving.” Georgios sighed, “there seems truth to both statements. Humanity has grown back every time we’ve been beaten back, but the Dreth have survived literal hell, and grown stronger for it.” “Well, this won’t be humanity’s final submission. Even in my time we knew time moves in ages that come and pass, and come again. Not literally, of course, but our knowledge and our connection to Light and Darkness grow and wanes. We learn, we forget, and relearn again.” Zhe’ra paused to look at the younglings. “And let me assure you, no matter how dreary it looks, there will always be another chance.” After a brief silence, Bill asked the obvious question: “So how can we protect the planet from itself?” Georgios looked as lost as Bill and Antin, but after a glance at his Aludim he continued. “What Zhe’ra says rings true. But she also revealed the answer, maybe without knowing it. We need to enlighten people, bring the Light back into each one willing to let it speak to them.” “That sounds awfully like a religion,” Antin said. “Where I’m from religions bring strife and despair while preaching the truth of a god.” “The Light isn’t a god. It just is.” Georgios regaled. “Equal and opposite to Darkness it is a force of all that is growth, creation, and progress. By connecting to a thinking being – one who has a soul – something remarkable happens. A kind of cosmic consciousness emerges. Not a being of its own, but an exchange between the Light and the soul.” He looked at the three of them. “In my time we called it the creator and the dark one, but I see those are just names for the same thing. The creator wasn’t a god. It didn’t dictate or demand. It just was the start and upkeeps of reality. A reality the dark one wanted to destroy.” “As an opposite force, Darkness uncreates. Destroys, decays.” Georgios said. “Those corrup…

So you thought the #soul was kind of single and simple in form? Let's see how Plato begins to describe its creation in "Timaeus".
The soul consists of three (3) parts, roughly a devine, a mortal and a part that is combination of the other two. He proceeds to describe how it is constructed:
#vssdaily
Now, you can be proficient
And sound technically great
Some may think that that's sufficient
It's not something that I'd hate
But I do not crave perfection
As that doesn't make me whole
I am saving my affection
For some music with some soul

I report to the office, planning to file a #document that'll grant me permission to land my personal aircraft on private land plus a permit to explore the Deep. The Deep is a dangerous place but I've wanted to venture inside since the day I first saw it on tv.
I do not need
a #document
that tells you
I have the right
to live
or the right
to be me.

I want to cut the #cord
This little annoyance named
A red string
Fate isn't a lifelong #document
It's a #weed nonetheless
& no #court holds her sway
Under the #awning without you
I #can safely #claim
No #lifeboat waits for me
& drowning sounds
Awfully pretty
Tonight

The tether, a #cord, that binds us together is metaphysical, something that only a few can actually see. Mary is one of those people. She, with her Sight Gift, is able to both see and manipulate invisible bonds. This leaves us both vulnerable and at her mercy.

Be sure to #document your experiment with copious notes if you want to graduate, he said to the class. Tim nodded. There was no #warmth in the professor’s comments. He was just repeating what he’d said many times before. Tim managed a thank you, shook his hand & left for the lab.

Her breast full in my hand as she held my arm across her chest and massaged my wrist.
In a public open bar.
I tried to pull away because "groping a girl in public" is a bad look for someone my age.
She put me back. She said the #warmth of her body would relax me.
She was right.
So happy you #patronized
my tiny establishment,
pls have a #seat
what may I serve you?
The #warmth of your welcome
'tis #obvious is sincere
let me #present this #document here
now you own it free and clear
I'll continue your patron
on BF-Inst-ik, dear

The #warmth of the waiting room was comforting.
"Take a #seat," said the robot clerk handing me a visa application. But it was #obvious from the #document: the planet below was full. Failed applications meant a walk to the airlock. Its use was free of charge.

we

not
the

to

cobwebs
of

if
cords
of
