"Be Not Desirous Of His Dainties;
Seeing They Are Deceitful Food."
~Proverbs 23:3
 
Temptations, hot blooded meat, candies, desserts, chocolates, fast cars, mansions, slick leather, silk and lace. Pollution of spirit causing an endless flowing of tears and seeds not growing, sustaining lies, feeding a populace that does not hunger, servicing no one, coveting wanting to feel rushing danger in plenty, hearing sweet music on Saturdays but not singing the right songs, not singing at all. Following her path and keeping step with one's heart that does not bleed. Loving-kindness, but as one jeers for excitement, strangers on a hot night, skies getting darker as the doors open all around me, but doors leading to bomb shells, having everything one needs when being satisfied with one's lot, desiring nothing, just a close connection with pleasantness: the numbers 4 and 613.
 
Deceitful foods looking like vegetables, not growing vegetables in my garden, vegetables that speak like demons, not enough vegetables, needing to be a vegetable to eat a vegetable. Getting up and dancing with a crowd, crowd disappearing, crowded out, never in a crowd, always in one's own space in one's own mind. Owning one's own mind. Keeping away from debilitating dainties. Having no needs.
