question:
Hi Waldo, it says that you asked this question a year ago. I am truly sorry for this exceptionally late response. I don't think it's of any importance at all now but just in case it matters: this quote is from my book, 'God, Does Humanity Exist?'

quote
“I don’t know how you
carry an ancient knowing or why you smell like dense stars and church. Everything is human nature yet you are supernovas piercing night’s heart with your wounds of light. I don’t know when you learned to dance with God or why you paused to witness me. Everything is eventual pain yet you are time suspended and blessings constellating. I don’t know why it had to be so or why it couldn’t be anything else. Every thing is an unbearable burden yet here you are —my universe’s Amen.” Kamand Kojouri |

“I had abandoned everything
frivolously doing this that and nothing until you broke through with your perfume of promise saying 'Give me your chaos' undressing my soul with your ferocious beauty and tulip-soft skin making me uncivilised making me overcome myself You drink the darkness within darkness and are not ruined by it This intoxicating uncertainty forces me to delay ‘forever’ —your body is now my home” ...more Kamand Kojouri |

“Some people are in such utter darkness that they will burn you just to see a light. Try not to take it personally.”

“They want us to be afraid.
They want us to be afraid of leaving our homes.
They want us to barricade our doors
and hide our children.
Their aim is to make us fear life itself!
They want us to hate.
They want us to hate 'the other'.
They want us to practice aggression
and perfect antagonism.
Their aim is to divide us all!
They want us to be inhuman.
They want us to throw out our kindness.
They want us to bury our love
and burn our hope.
Their aim is to take all our light!
They think their bricked walls
will separate us.
They think their damned bombs
will defeat us.
They are so ignorant they don’t understand
that my soul and your soul are old friends.
They are so ignorant they don’t understand
that when they cut you I bleed.
They are so ignorant they don’t understand
that we will never be afraid,
we will never hate
and we will never be silent
for life is ours!”

“Come, friends.
Come with your grief.
Come with your loss.
Carry all the pieces of your heart
and come sit with us.
Bring your disappointments
and your failures.
Bring your betrayals
and your masks.
We welcome you no matter
where you come from
and what you bring.
Come and join us
at the intersection of
acceptance and forgiveness
where you will find our
house of love.
Bring your empty cups
and we will have a feast.”
