To Be or Not To Be: A Soul's Solemn Query



To be or not to be, that is the quest:

Whether 'tis nobler in the heart to bear

The slings and arrows of outrageous tests,

Or to take arms against a sea of care,

And by resisting end them? To endure

To sleep, no more; and say we end the ache

Of time's unyielding heart, the spirit's lure

Of burdens borne for heaven's fleeting sake.


To die, to dream, no more. Ay, there's the rift,

The undiscovered country from whose bourn

No pilgrim e'er returns, our shadowed drift

Into eternity's unyielding morn.


Thus conscience makes cowards of us all,

Yet faith redeems the fall.

What If?

  What if the emerald field were Rome once more, a modern circus crowned with light and flame? What if the cheers concealed a deeper roar, while countless hearts were drawn into the game? What if each anthem stirred the soul by art, each banner waved to guide the watching throng? What if the match were theatre at heart, its triumphs timed to keep the crowd lifelong? What if, like WWE beneath the lights, each twist were known before the whistle's call? What if rehearsed became our fiercest fights, yet none perceived the script behind it all? What if we watched while others shaped our sight? Yet still Spain, Argentina, and England shine bright. © 2026 Pastor Emmanuel Serto

Epstein and the Weight of Witness

Image
  For more than seven days my rest has fled, The Epstein Files like fire within my bones; They haunt my waking hours, crowd my head, A witness crying out from guarded thrones. They speak of nights where power fed on shame, Of doors unsealed yet willfully ignored; Woe to the hands that knew, yet never named, Woe to the courts that bargained truth for order. We trusted crowns that promised to defend, Believed the strong would shield the frail and small; But silence proved a traitor, not a friend, And fear became the loudest voice of all. This is the hour: let hidden things be shown; For truth will rise, though long it wept alone. © 2026 Pastor Emmanuel Serto
