Where the Beast Can'T Follow

Born into the raw flesh of the physical world We are placed in the burning fire of refinement Each lifetime in this world is a spirit lesson The world of the beast contains the rapist and saint During one life, we’ll be the hateful abuser Next time, we will be the helpless and torn victim It is the nature of the beast Evidence of the nearly completed spirit Are the children who die at a very young age They are always calm and serene, comforting us There’s not much more refining for them to complete They’re prepared to start a much more complex journey Beyond the world of the burning lustful raw flesh Where the beast can’t follow © Copyrights G.
