Interesting Perspectives
A storm is afoot for those walking
thin lines whether they
know it or not
Plots conceived in the dark never
really go as planned
as divine hands will eventually
bring things to light
Everything has its reason & the plight
of those that answer the call
ring true
even if the contents of the call
isn't immediately viewed
Sometimes the message is chopped
& screwed proving
unintelligible to a few
but all will eventually get it
before it's all said
& done
I've come to the realization that we
live in a nation of followers
all borrowing excuses
& looking to place blame
Some will do anything for fortune
& fame
including losing a soul that isn't
really theirs
The lame excuses & borrowing gets
deeper than you know
likewise the hole for those
refusing to grow
We're all seeds growing toward
some thing or another
but it's best to
reach for the sky toward
the sun
All good things come in due time
& even you will
shine when appointed
The power is within you as
you've been anointed with energy
& the choice to choose
to ascend
The problem is many are just too
lazy to bring forth
what they have within
This is a sin greater than most
as you've also been given
breath to be a gracious host
of the most high
I sigh at the thought before
remembering that we
all get what we pay for even
if we aren't looking to
buy or be bought
