Listening

I don't know what was going on when I was born. What the mood of the day was like. I know it was hot as hell. Mom told me that. But I don't know what was on the minds of men, or what was in their hearts. I know there was love in mom's heart and in dad's heart, still, despite what they were or weren't going through.

I did not know that I would be born into such an age, where love would be the message, but I suppose I knew, one way or another, that we would be able to deliver it. that we'll always be able to deliver it. that our generation would and will do remarkable things, for human achievement is survival, and we survive to bear witness to our achievement, thus are the god's summoned, their invisible rain goose bumping our skin, sometimes making the most vicious of us weep, sometimes, too, when a god descends, a memory is resurrected, and this is like the moon, and I am 90 percent water, after all.

I am just human...100 percent, so.
