Who Am I

WHO AM I


Am I
Part of the eternal, trapped within
The temporal
Or
Am I
The temporal, fighting part of 
The eternal to become?

If I may humbly say....I believe we are the temporal, who have been privileged to house the eternal by invitation. The temple of the Holy Spirit...who as a good gentleman will not force entrance, but comes at our bidding. Lovely poem...full of depth and meaning. What do you espouse, my dear esteemed poet?
