Love, Fear, Lust Or Greed

Love, fear, lust or greed? A thousand diseases blowing in the wind; the hungry voices of hatred eating each side! i caused pain within my life, that i did, deciding at birth to give care upon the blue marble i landed upon with baby feet. i uplifted the crust of Mother Earth, and swift torrential rush of drama-death; only mockingbirds sing at night sweetly. And the starRock light stabs the night falling, falling, falling everywhere is the moon and Her Light! Blossoming memory: well the last days of winter, of my life which was as full of dim, mystic musings, and when one day, my soul was high, and my body was a fountain, my mind in cloudy wisdom; as i had been taught a certain manifestation of guilt, then i understood the meaning of life! So i climbed down from the high-place, in my heart, and in my mind, each life cycle, chased with the fall of leaves, cradled in the arms of the earth bringing back meaning of life each hour of every day. As i did so, i put in a stasis a profound tree-spirit; my movements in time could not be restored, my mind was silent, an image seen in my consciousness was born of my broken heart, it was born of care for my precious soul! But the sacred tree-spirit i brought to life was proud, it ignored me, it stayed on the heights of my mind! i knew that even the past has a home in the future, that the stars which never fall in the rain, their waves have no end, have risen in the trees of my life, and a new dawn was coming. It filled me with hope. :: 01.16.2021 ::
