Like a trampoline that rebounds and catapults me
to experience the highs and lows of my vision
like a victim, I stand, knocking on my Maker’s door
hoping to get answers to the questions
that only my higher consciousness knows.
Pitter-patter, the raindrops mingle with the earth
providing nourishment to parched souls
hither and dither, the wind stops, singing a lullaby
crooning to the beats of thunder and lightning
like pawns in a game of chess, working and playing
at the hands of fate.
If everything is preordained, should I willingly succumb
to this game of deception, I question?
or should I roll the dice and partake in the game of poker
a play, a tryst with destiny, with its whims and fancies
with no respite for my tears and follies.
Somewhere from the deepest recesses of my heart
a voice answers, “You, one of the intellectual species
to have walked the earth, endowed with powers
for I created you, a piece of art, in my reflection
gifted with an ability to manifest life at will.”
Yet, you cry and wail in agony at your own choices
governed and entwined in the mystic veil of duality
abandoned have you compassion and grace
engulfed in the sensory pleasures of the body
imbecile and selfish is your take, ignoring the universal laws
the wonders that surround you in your wake.
You willingly signed the blueprint, accepting the challenges
and lessons on earth. Awaken to the reality
the law of causality, for nothing is written in stone
destiny’s roadblocks that one needs to conquer and relinquish
invoke the innate power that resides inside
looking for answers outside, when they lie within.
