Notice of absence from Tristan Robert Lange
Friends, I’m doing my best to keep up with comments. 😅 I’m still current on my own poems and first replies on others’ work, but this season has been a bit of a twister. Figured I’d drop a quick note so you don’t think I’ve vanished or gone flaky.
Read. Write. Rise. Realize. 🤘💀🖤

a question is asked.
do you pay taxes or not?
taxes don’t buy God.

Tristan again I can not help but go beneath the surface of your writes. We are told that prayers and faith buy God but are they not but taxes. To pay tribute in any form is a tax whether crops, livestock, loyalty, service all have been paid by serfs of the past to their lord. And so we are asked to pay allegiance, obey commandments, have faith, pay tithes, acknowledge him all taxes
God needs your money!!!! 😭😭😭
Popeye has no dilemma about.....what? WCAT! lol.
