Day: May 5, 2020

You quietly listen for what cannot be heard
Free will exercising leaves you with fear
And you wait for someone to say okay
That’s all right what you did
Never mind
No one is to know, but
You know and
Waiting will be in vain and
Your guts will growl until you
Make peace with your soul
There are no voices to sanction devil’s play
 
Arrogance has lifted you to new heights
Self-worship has you standing on
The dung heap of fools
Reality will bring you down to gutter level, but
The smell remains until you bathe yourself with clean water and
Then walk away from frivolity’s claim
Rough riding days are over
No one left to hold you up
You have worn out those who carried you
 
Abandonment of principles is easy
Till no one is left to pave your way
Then you want to listen for answers
When you call out for help from this play
Don’t wait too long
Begin what you have to do
A trip back to basic truth
Reacquaint yourself with the precepts of life
Refresh yourself and know that
Engagement with responsibility is necessary before
You can take your place in the sun
