Snakes and Ladders

Please try and read with the rhythm, flow and spacing I created by use of the lower casing in place of full-stops and commas/breaths. Allow the words to dance...

Snakes and Ladders


I'm not perfect
Never can Be
in this crude and dense 
lower-sense materiality
You are not perfect
Can't you see
through the virtual layers
of your infected projected reality
I Am not perfect
Never have I ALL seen
That is a state
no other Being has been
or ever will truly just BE
a perfect specimen of humanity
Balance
Equality
Day and night
Dark and light
Morning has broken
Awaiting to BE awoken
in every you and I
Unseen behind the covered eye
A discovery we do not yet understand
metaphysically and physically
A long term planned
opening of a new gland
to synchronize the I
beyond the hidden eye
Arbor Vitae 
Descended from the Tree of Life
Ascended through the knowledge tree
Apes and Snakes
Apples and Adders
Would you Adam and Eve it
Our future selves
made golden ladders
we cannot see but feel
Treasures remain hidden
until we break the seal
That's the deal
Evolving devolution
A metaphysical experiment
seeking the Absolute solution
Getting back to the mechanics 
before inventing the wheel
Riding the downward spiral
like a fun-fair giant slide
A white-knuckle ride
Climbing back up the spinal
down the stairway to heaven
only to find another library
another dice with a Seven
Frequencies of sound and colour
that brought us back to Earth
time after time
Life
Death
Rebirth
a sentence of karmic crime
No more
No less
than we deserve
when we do not clean up our mess
as we go on
and on
and on
and on
Sometimes believing our own ass shone
sunshine on a cloudy day
Wake up!
We're in this down-poor together
Religion and politics separate us
and a little schooled knowledge
makes us think we are clever
for a moment 
that often lasts too long
when we do not question
our opinion of right from wrong
That impressive Ego
does not make you or I strong
It weakens you
It weakens me
It destroys humanity
and strips away the dignity
of the sovereign within
that is not subject
to the invention of original sin
Knowledge is not intelligence
Intelligence is not wisdom
unless combined together
to reinstate the divine kingdom
of the Higher Self
and the nameless Source
flowing sacred streams
into a river course
onto the One See
reflecting in the climber
of the One Tree.
