Logos

I have been thinking about "words" again lately. Sometimes I think that words are not sufficient to convey a thought. Some words carry extra baggage--especially under certain circumstances. We are always forming a new tongue. I am contemplating what it means to be an "illegal" immigrant. What does it mean to say "hail" Caesar?

The duty of the reader is to always allow the voice of the author to express exactly (if only) what the author intends. My mind wanders back to what we mean when we say "sacrifice." Below, I have posted a paper from last year. There is something in it that won't let me go-- "words crack." Crack open words... Crack open and become something new.
