An early winter sun Rises in the morning Its light races across the prairie and Stops Crashing against the Longs Peak Mountains Its face alight in red and orange and yellow As if in fire But the fire reside elsewhere In the heart of the seer In the mind of the viewer And sings in … Continue reading Mountains Song
It’s a Trial
It has been long since my last post so I thought I'd post a bit of an update. I'm still working on the next major theme in my philosophical discussions, "Denial of Moral Responsibility". It has, needless to say, taken far to long to complete. There are a verity if reasons behind that, the largest … Continue reading It’s a Trial
