The Enlightened 1

1And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein. 2But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months. 3And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth. 4These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth. 5And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed. 6These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will. 7And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that a...

Warning: I have no clue what I am about to write and the ramblings of a genius can be quite confusing to those with IQs that would be competitive in a war of words with an otter or a 7 year old that failed head start. I am amazing. Every day I realize that my level of awesomeness has no levees and no Corp of Engineers in this known galaxy can destroy enough spillways to stop my amazing aura from flooding Earth. That is awesome to know that you are that awesome. You know who i feel sorry for? That little boy that has a single mother that looks like a super model or a video vixen and how awkward it is to be forced to just stand there in the mall or a store while man after man tries to hit on your mother. I mean you know whats going on and you know what they want but you are too little to just punch one of them in the face or cut off his pinky toe. Those boys have a hard knock life Its always makes me feel bad when I bake something in a pyrex dish and forget to spray it with Pam and it st...

Somehow she managed to unlock her wrist from its current position. The harsh cold metal around her wrist was comforting for some reason. Its tailored elegance reminded her of the swivel of the combination lock on a bank vault and how that 360 degree circle could hold back the world. It was several lifetimes that had brought her awake in this darkness. The moon had passed over seemingly milleniums ago and maybe she had missed the birth and death of the stars and the blackness above her head was the aftermath of their passing. The air was cold and life had been sucked from the wind and it just hung like a heavy smoke over a burnt skillet of eggs. She tried to put her hand on floor so she could sit upright against the grainy cement wall but something heavy was preventing this action. She tried to move it but its weight was seemingly nailed to the floor and her eyes hadn't adjusted enough to the dark to see what thing held her limb in its tight grip. She cursed and something cu...

So many people are making this end-of-the-world thing so negative. The end of the world can be so positive. I like to look on the bright side of world destructive and find the silver linings of the planet disappearing. Below are a few things I think give the end of the world some modest appeal. 1. Oprah will be as broke as the rest of us. When the world goes away the OWN network goes bankrupt because its equipment and network are gone and Oprah goes back to wearing her casting clothes from the Color Purple. 2. no repayment of student loans. A lot of people worry about going into default and the consequences from the gov't, but rest assured once the world ends you can sleep easier not worrying about the Dept. of Education. 3. Willow Smith and Cymphonique will be ushers. They won't be allowed to sing solos in Heaven's choir nor live off their parent's success. Just white gloves and silence for these two. 4. Your baby's mothers can no longer fight you or each ...
