Compliments
of division
my life story
mingles in threads
of Catholicism
and the like
and I must stop myself
from pulling them loose.
…
Fighting anything
will never result
in absolution
I do not want to dismantle
the quilt;
I just want to prove
that it is nothing more
than patchwork.
…
Positive energy
can be difficult to gather
when your tribe has only consisted
of society and people living on the line
of nothing more than muddled minds–
it’s a connection that never lasts.
…
Instead of fabrication
I seek connection to nature’s past,
present and future,
the fact that the present
is the only reality that can turn us inwards
face us homewards
…
we are all connected by something greater:
Being, love– they live inside of us.
…
Religion crumples before it,
nationalities will laugh,
countries torn by economic mishap
and strife will fall to their knees
when we realize that the external fight
will never result in internal freedom.
…
I do not want to destroy a notion;
I just want to shine light on the beauty
of something real.
