Absorption has its own will
Matthew 7:6 New English Translation (NET Bible)
6 Do not give what is holy to dogs or throw your pearls before pigs;
otherwise, they will trample them under their feet and turn around and tear you to pieces.
Self-included
If this is all I ever need ... Why do I keep on wanting?
Satisfaction gets fulfilled but only for some notion
Wants and wishes speed ... seldom recanting
towards the center of selfish there to trigger an emotion
Lives of the empty ... are impossible to fill
Accumulated possessions keep hollowness expanding
Like a dark hole ... as it absorbs at its own will
all things that won’t last in scheming and planning
Jan Wienen
