I do not come to this place on my
own accord....
a higher plane beckons me
If I view my dreams and purposes from afar....then
are they
given
Credence and Truth.
Some will say that the strong merely survive
and achieve, with endurance,
that which those who are unable, only hope they
could.
But I cannot exact the same from those
born into a noble caste and into a beggar's home....God
views
no lines of separation.
What is acceptable to the whole....is not the
cause of the part....and is not
the service I give to my earthly companions.
I would rather serve at the table of the lowly
black-sooted beggar than sup at
the
feast of corruption.
I have no cognizance of that which seeks not
its own self first and then
the
world's vice's....and of them there are multitudes,
for to live without smelling the sweets and beauties
and purges and decadences
first
of You,
is to be in blindness to what your earth-mates
of blended hues exude as well.
Who is the ablest of the masses to mark the nicks
in time
that
recount the tale of death, over....and again?
and once more to me some fine day or night....and
perhaps not
to
a suckling babe who has its years ahead in plenty.
Who can reckon that spot where good was trampled
by greed....or the mind
of
man who blesses that which he curses in the same soft breath?
Nothing is impossible in the narrow scope of
my infinity....no thing can
give
back to me what was never departed,
and all things can be done by me through the
love that strengthens.
Like the soil that enriches the fields of soy....the
boy who enriches
his
mother with the water thirsty of praise....all converge
in a form of loveliness against the biting winds
of man's deceit.
As well is my soul
in rest among goodly company,
and the hands of my being and Creator and Judge....no
thing of evil seed
shall prevail.
Every sheave of grass reminds me....I am a mortal
among mortals,
prone
to the reaper's blade as my fellow man and woman.
I have but to see the breeze in the tops of trees,
to
be enamored by a rapture in the clouds.
I have but to wriggle in the ocean's nakedness
with my own,
and
play the role of the deep-seated clam.
I need not look but to the ripening smell of
plumgroves,
and
the purple-red, speckled vine.
Then do I question each who pass among the throng....each
furtive
glance that may brush against my own soul,
leaving their residue,
Why are the purest most often forsaken?
