Open If you want me to be honest urge me to keep ego empty, understand the bumps of naked; give me time for trust ‘til ready. Airy flights with guileless commune, souls entwine in threadless eddy. New-old state of being vetted rise to know which things to jetty. Close Shun dysfunctioned ways of bias. Denouement…
