Lighting the Lamp

dark blotch self implanted 
borne of ego contractions tainted
cognised & realised but yet admitted
owning to habit borne indulgence requited

mere recognition not sufficient 
to make bondage to delusion decadent
for unless we initiate actual change within 
we block the divine spark birthing bliss ignition 

within
