The historical
Jesus is pitted against the resurrected Jesus. With you, I must decrease; others must
increase. What it means to be human:
anthropology, theology, ontology. Revelation in personhood, godhead, the
luxury of the forgotten. Self-communication.
Upright intrusion. Elusive observations. To have died an infant—to have lived a
silent adult—grace becomes vision. Beatification.
Siena. The soul inside of a Soul. Clear
and distinct knowledge—how has it come? By way of nuance, structure,
forgiveness, and suffering. It might
be scientific wisdom, the fight of the opera, faith reified. I am the measure of the volcano; a soul
waiting to graduate; a mind bent on learning something esoteric (the flame of
the antithesis). Oh Saint Catherine,
it was never so aggressive, you were born pure; many ways now to avoid being
human, a person; communication is self-transcendence. Knowledge becomes belief. Understanding
becomes disbelief. The function is unrelatable at times. Unmerited. Nonetheless, gods. The fever is
in loving regardless.
