Wills of the Mind

Some works are brought about by the mind veiled Lungs breathing, eyelids blinking, the heart beating non-stop Are done in the mind asleep with no will Emotions flow here and there with no guide Though we can build dams to have some directional flow Emotions still ripple through gaps and cracks Other works are done with a lonely will Most are born into the world by the bodily mind Pleasures and darkness are its short-lived dreams Some are designed by the rational soul The foundation of all man-made castles and towers Morals and duty are its drowsiness A few come to light by blazing spirit A silent pearl that is within every plant and tree Silence and mystery are its daylight Intent and works come from sleep and awareness From battles between water and soul, sleep and spirit You must choose which to follow in these long battles Contest: Just before release Poetry Contest Contest sponsor: Unseeking Seaker
