"Seen da' Light" Poem.
 
Here's a little poem. Feel free to comment:)

Seen da Light

Oh, the tragic hearts of man
The sun cries to the clouds
"Don't be so opaque!" but clouds
Can't understand so our
Hearts don't know what they're
Missing until silently amid
The grey shadows, a cloud of circumstance
Floats nonchalantly away
Allowing a stream of illumination
To cast it's bright light upon
The soil of a shadowy heart
Still we may not even know,
Sitting, a seed begins to grow

Hhhmm, I wonder what the author was referring to in that poem. Some of made sense, but I had a feeling that he was speaking in metaphoric language.

I think the grey shadow represents the doctrine of the trinity which clouds the minds of men and blocks illumination to the truth of God's word. It disgusts me :(

I think that it is talking about how we long for joy, but it is obscured until at some point we get a brief veiw of something that brings us happiness and peace, but that is mearly my theory. It is worth as much as anything else.

Live says that OP doctrine disgusts him, so I was teasing him about his poem.

Ahh, your just saying that because I'm trinitarian. I think the same about modalism. :)

That's a big facet of it :)
