Inheritance
“Inheritance”
Where do I go?
To meet you
outside of
complicit
words...
I dream of
bigger things
than numbers
and sharp talons
bells jangling
ankles tempted
by better things
running
flight of the fleeing
hooded
tethered
birds
Freedom,
Words.
Just
Freedom words.
Courts of law
and felons;
I remember
the night you arrived.
Rain -
and You,
on my shoulder;
all alone,
we were pure -
we were innocence,
Just...
You and I.
I sang you a song
from my heart
out loud.
Poems?
Poems,
they were never thought of.
In my dream
I am you
behind your
windows
Not so long ago.
21 goes so fast
I wish
the next few years
to go so slow,
but they will not.
Magic comes
in for you,
I laid the path
congenital
Believe always,
Love arrives in you,
when you dream
in the dreams
of another's Wake.
It was transfused
from my heart
to you at birth,
tenfold;
This is fate.
Seeker,
You are stronger
than you know
inside you,
stronger than another
inside you -
your inheritance,
more than money is worth -
a hidden treasure;
inherited, there lies waiting,
a silent courage,
Heart of Gold
Once was a mother
a story to unfold

“This is what I believe:
That I am I.
That my Soul,
is a dark forest.
That my known self will never be more
than a little clearing in the forest.
That gods, strange gods,
come forth from the forest
into the clearing of my known self,
and then go back.
That I must have the courage
to let them come and go.
That I will never let mankind
put anything over me,
but that I will try always
to recognize and submit
to the gods in me
and the gods
in other men and women.
There is my creed.”
D.H.Lawrence
