Convicted by a Thread of Humanity.

Good -versus -Evil. Right -versus- Wrong. Truth -versus- Error. Empathy -versus- Egoism. Of 'If' I Might Do Right?

Epic Tussle for Identity: I Am (who) I So Choose.

EPIPHANIC MOMENTS.

Neolomicro Challenge: Neologism.

Subheading: (verb) To experience a series of epic moment. (noun) One whom encounters a series of epiphanies. (adjective) The state of being in a series of epiphanies.

Epic encounter. Most impressionable meeting ever taken place. Mystifying eyes, Surreal moments. Glancing into the pupils of the one staring back at me. Flooded by endless thoughts. Jaded visages. Fractured pieces, disconnected moments. Long-lost deeds never to be recovered. What was a mild glare become an intense moment! So captivating that I am seized. Frozen in my steps. What is this timeless moment that has flooded the entirety of my being. A familiar face. As intense as I now look at yo. Captivated. Sensational waves of equal intensity gripping my soul. I try to ask, “what is your name?” Failed attempts. Not even an uttered word. Agitated. Vexated; my pulse is racing with unstoppable intensity. Cannot contain myself! Torrent of pearl-sized beads of sweat. Will have the final word. One failed utter to the next, determined to purse my lips. If only I might ask, “Who are you?” It is at that moment. I realize. I am that one. I am him. It is me. Epiphanic moment!
