tyrone peck 1963 (Kerrville Tex)



what are we? motion within motion.our
bodies walking working and doing less
or more.are our minds the center of
our beings and our bellies the center
of our strength?do we have full control
of our strength and being?or are we
merely puppets puppetered by controlling
spirits that try ever so harder when one
being breaks free into his own control
given to each man freely by god?yet who
can stop this once free?not man not
spirit even god stops it not.
