Everything That Is

Study the ins & outs of
what is you and see
if what you've learned
holds true
You are a book of words
composed of everything
from nouns to verbs
In other words
you personify
what's known
as the All
You are that leaf
on a tree in spring
that drops to the
ground in the fall
You are that summer
rain that turns to snow
when winter season
calls
Collectively
we are all the reason
the world keeps spinning
& have been that
from the beginning
If what I'm saying
is considered sinning
I'll continue to blaspheme
until the whole of HIM
is truly seen
His thunderous voice
screams when one
doesn't recognize
who they truly are 
& what their existence
really means
Look in the mirror
to be seen by the eyes
of him patiently watching
& waiting
Waiting for you
to wake up 
from the dream
& realize that you are
the golden mean
The light born 
from the darkness
in the womb
The darkness
that nurtures the seed
until light helps it
to bloom
You are the sun
at high noon but also
the moon at night
giving light to 
nature's room
You're consumed
by him because
you are the fruit
of his tree
You are his seed
that's supposed to grow
to know you are IT
indeed
You are his child
& not in a mild kind
of way but
in a literal sense
because he parents you
night and day
You haven't come
all this way
to minimize your
stay on this screen
where you're 
constantly streaming
Remember you're one
with the thing that dreams
of worlds & awakens
to what you're fervently
dreaming
