While I can certainly understand some of Terry's skepticism, James Randi is little more than the flip side of the same coin. His 'million dollar challenge' for paranormal claims is set up in such a way as to be virtually unwinable and he knows it. James Randi has set himself up as judge, jury and executioner of the whole thing and with his extremely biased position (not to mention his unwillingness to part with a million dollars), it's little wonder that no one has won the prize.
DO you follow any of these quacks, charlatans, liars, mystics or self-promoters?

THE GLADIATOR
Your poems to Terry are very moving. Alas they have caused me to think you are not cut out to be a gladiator. Despite your desire to meet me in the arena, it is not the place for a sensitive soul like you.
There is no easy way to let you down.
May your gods console you.

Gladiator, Don't underestimate THE BURN. He is multi-faceted. Don't let his waxing poetic fool you.

THE GLADIATOR
Good advice journey-on
I have been warned that Christians can be slippery.
Their god is not to be underestimated. He claims to have created the whole world.

Another piece of advice, Gladiator. THE BURN was also trained in theocratic warfare. This is a maneuvre that might seem unethical on the surface, but the end justifies the means. If you were never a JW, you might not see it coming. Just a little heads up for you.

Some more for Terry
Black then white are all i see in my infancy.
Red & yellow then came to be, reaching out to me,
Lets me see.
As below, so above & beyond, i imagine.
Drawn beyond the lines of reason.
Push the envelope. watch it bend.
Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.
Withering my intuition, missing opportunities & i must
Feed my will to feel my moment drawing way outside the lines.
Reaching out to embrace whatever may come.
I embrace my desire to,
Feel the rhythm, to feel connected enough to step aside & weep like a widow
To feel inspired, to fathom the power, to witness the beauty,
To bathe in the fountain,
To swing on the spiral of our divinity & still be a human.
With my feet upon the ground i move myself between the sounds & open wide to suck it in.
I feel it move across my skin.
I'm reaching up & reaching out.
I'm reaching for the random or what ever will bewilder me.
What ever will bewilder me.
& following our will & wind we may just go where no one's been.
We'll ride the spiral to the end & may just go where no one's been.
Spiral out. keep going.

You've never met the warrior-poet. He will compose an epic in your honor once you have turned the arena sands crimson.
