They Play With Crayons - A Poem by M.N. Hopkins

The way of dark ones

Treachery and betrayal

They play with crayons

© 2026  M.N. Hopkins

Note:  I wrote this poem a few days ago in the haiku style of poetry and published it for the first time today, the 6th of August, 2026.  This was the inspiration for this poem which was a comment left for me about one of my writings:   and then be sure to show them that there is nothing to fear about the "darkness" for it is nothing more than complete data saturation, similar to taking all of your crayons and layering one on top of the other over and over . . . . the "color" becomes a black blob . . . . once one is able to "see in the dark", which is simply discernment, then they can see all, including that there is nothing to fear, especially death.

Loneliness Is A By Product - A Quotation by M.N. Hopkins

Loneliness is a by product or side effect of a disconnection.  For there is no reason to be alone or feel alone when you connect again to Nature and to the Divine.  A magnitude of helpers are there to guide you and show you a better way of living.
