The Unwritten Knowing

I want to write a poem about control
When you think you are in control
That is when you lose control
Life has the opposite effects 
When you think you have it
is when you don't
It will be pulled from under you
Because there is only one Ruler
One Controller
Anything than that
will be knocked down
torn down
And leave to pieces
You sure don't want to be the one to pick up the pieces, do you?
Me neither
So don't force me or anyone to make the executive decision
Either knowingly or unknowingly
Of assuring that the Almighty always has the strictest control
Which is the only control
Of all
Why do you think we change?
Why do you think there is disorder
chaos, uncertainty...?
To make sure that we don't rule
To make sure that we know 
who is the Ruler of us all
So do you think you have control?

A good piece overloaded with a set of spirituality that enhanced the flow of juice ! I really liked Toquyen Harrell!
