Poem
Beast and Angel in the Flame
 
It will take more than religion to save you
More than the word of God to ignite you
More than thought to give you direction
More than study to give you conviction
 
And faith in the mountain will not help you
Belief in a path cannot guide you
Your moral decisions will only drown you
Until you wake up
 
When nothing but your own mirror calls you
And nothing but your own heart inflames you
All the passion in the world
Will remain nothing more than a shadow
 
When one day realization beckons you
With its delicate finger of remembrance
Makes you kneel at the foot of acceptance
And kiss the feet of who you are
 
When the doors of your judgment crumble 
before the power of your desire
All the boundaries you have set
Will vanish in the needing want of fire
 
You will stand naked before another person
All your heart, your body, your spirit left; open
When gratitude and release floods every vein
Just to know you are human; again
 
All the same, all the same; we are all the same
In pleasure and in pain
We are all the same
Beast and Angel in the flame
 
And when life washes through you
In pain and pleasure for you
When you stand on this brink and it encompasses you
In a single name
 
Then lift your head in surrender
Raise your eyes in strength
All that you are in one second remember
Without you I am nothing
  
And I stand before you with belief
I hold you bound with a power higher than common love
Naked
Drawn to each other by a force greater than the both of us
 
And the vicious and the crack where the light pours in
And the supplicant and in the wine taste of beyond relief
I am saved
By the you beyond love
 
It will take more than a moral to save you
More than the words of a poet to ignite you
More than institution to give you direction
More than faith to give you religion
 
And trust in the law will not help you
Belief in justice will not lead you
Such moral decisions will only befool you
Until you wake up
 
When nothing but your own mirror calls you
And nothing but your own heart inflames you
All the passion in the world
Will remain nothing more than an unknown shadow
 
All the same, all the same; we are all the same
In pleasure and in pain
We are all the same
Angel and Beast in the flame
