A Tale of Two Altars

The division between good and evil, selflessness and selfishness. A somewhat dark journey with a bit of word play along the way. Nicely done Tristan

Wonderful and thought provoking, its relatable to many subjects in the times we live. Pain or peace, we are all so different that someone\'s pain maybe someone else\'s peace, and vice versa. Clever now my mind is in overdrive. 🌹 (Hugs dear Tristan) 🌹

Superbly raw and open to meanings. The hopelessness can at times be overwhelming 🙏🕊️

As an inveterate agnostic, I have a list pf plausible possibilities in my head. Heading that list (sometimes in second place), is nothingness…. But does that constitute nirvana? Thanks anyway, Tristan.

Good write T. Bit of French there? Totalitate.
Now there\'s a sentence you hear every day from P. - I just can\'t stop. Stop what? Don\'t answer that! lol. Hint: it relates to spinach, of course.

Nirvana in the small print, one must be careful in the end.
I need to know I\'m coming back before I sign up.

A thought provoking piece Tristan. And indeed the end may in fact be nirvana. Where peace is only obtained in death with nothing there after.

I recently saw this video of this man who paints in only black--he uses the way the light reflects off of different stroke angles to show a picture. Anyway, black does seem to be one of those universal thoughts and feelings

Don\'t knock black too hard Tristan - I couldn\'t scribe this without it\'s services. Just put it in the naughty corner until it behaves itself...🙃

Loved this one Tristan that highlights the lack of change despite effort. Black such a good choice that as we know it the sum total of all colors in pigment and the absence of color in light. Well done

It seems strange, but when colour photos came in it was a revelation.
Now we all go back to black for nostalgia, though I might look better in black and white.

Now that Ol\' Henry Ford didn\'t give us, or rather you in USA, much choice with his cars - \'You can have any colour as long as it\'s black\'. Doh!

The good are included, the bad excluded.
Though many a time I was included, I sort of wished for my street cred to be excluded.

But most people are! Some people include certain but not others and I think that\'s where the wrongfulness begins. There\'s a theory that if you hate every race, you\'re not racist because you treat them all the same...

Good write T.
Now look Popeye - it\'s either \'A\' for you, or it\'s \'A\' for you. There\'s only \'A\' to choose. What is \'A\' we ask? Don\'t answer that, but it\'s Popeye\'s occupation for 23 hrs 59 mins each day! lol.
I dunno how I think up this rubbish! heehee.

A philosophical gordian knot. The picture you posted looked like two eggs. The other day an egg I was making was dark navy blue inside and fell into three others in the bowel. It being included could no longer be excluded so I threw the whole mess out. A great read my friend and a fave

Yes, we\'re all god\'s children till we\'re not.
When you point out the obvious, people just think you\'re getting above yourself, and this usually means death.

Too often the hypocrisy of the sainted overshadows the good of the truly virtuous. Sadly, you capture the blind idealism of those who rigidly adhere to a blind idealism that is out of touch with reality. I wholly concur with your interpretation, very well done!!

Every one wants to go to a stoning they used to sell food at the hangings. People do not tolerate well what they don\'t understand. Nicely done Tristan loved the acrostic.
