What hurts the soul?

We tremble, thinking we’re about to dissolve into nonexistence,
...But non-existence fears even more that it might be given human form!

Loving God is the only pleasure. Other delights turn bitter.

What hurts the soul?...
To live without tasting the water of its own essence.
People focus on death and this material earth.
They have doubts about soul water. Those doubts can be reduced!
Use night to wake your clarity. Darkness and the living water are lovers. Let them stay up together.
When merchants eat their big meal and sleep their dead sleep, we night thieves go to work.

Midnight, but your forehead...
Shines with dawn.
You dance as you come to me and curl by curl undo the dark. Let jealousy end.
