A Possum that had transcended beyond . That of a lost soul must of been , at one time vibrant , was now sedentary where he lie ., while moving out of harms way with my right foot., I thought a second time would be rather a Double Disspleasure to an otherwise CHEEKY CHARACTER of GODS CHOOSING......however did not prioritize his get a way a priority on a particular day prior. I thought to myself THIS EVENT WHICH HAD TAKEN PLACE MUST HAVE REPRESENTED THAT OF LOST AND DEAD SOULS ,OF FOLLOWERS THAT ONCE WERE THAT OF GODS .CHOOSING BUT HAD FALLEN BY THEE WAISTSIDE AND SUFFERED IMMENCELY AS A RESULT,HOWEVER HAVE VOWED TO ONE DAY RENEW THEIR DEDICATION REGARDING THEE HOLIEST OF HOLY [S].........
