Threads of Life
Luck is the gold of Fools,
For when things do not go
the way the of the fools wantings
it is bad luck.
When things go well to the fools desires,
it is good luck.
Luck is an excuse that
people make to justify their existence when
they have no true spiritual base,
or have lost the way.
Luck is the sibling of coincidence.
Learn to see the patterns of your wyrd,
and you will not have to rely on the vices
of luck and coincidence,
and can live by synchronicity which is to follow
the pattern of your life.
If your life doth not please you,
change the pattern
and when this life is done
you will have a most beautiful
tapestry.

Reality

Reality is trancended by ego.
The effervescent nature of time
creates a paradigm of infinite realities.
We cannot comprehend self
through the masks of love and hate.
For we are the whole of our some.
A thread in the web of life.
Love your neighbor as you love yourself
for we are all one,
with a fragmented personality.
Universal schizophrenia
is the mask we all wear.
As above so below,
as the universe so the soul.
We are the creator of our own paradox.
The paradox of life and death.
For death is the beginning of life,
and life is the beginning of death.
This is the dance of endless seasons

Choices!

THE DRUMS OF DESIRE BEATING
A PULSATING RHYTHM
OF THIRSTFUL URNINGS,
BECKONS,
WANTING TO JUSTIFY
TO HAVE AT THE EXPENSE
OF MUCH SUFFERING.
IT IS FUNNY THAT WE CHOOSE TO SUFFER
SO THAT WE CAN ATTACH OURSELVES TO DESIRE.
DESIRE IS THE OPIATE
OF A FEAR FUELED SOCIETY,
THAT HAS FORGOTTEN THEIR
OWN DIVINITY.
MANY LUSTS EXIST TO MASK
THE PAIN AND FEAR
OF SEPARATION FROM OUR DIVINE NATURE.
THE PARADOX IS THAT WE CHOOSE THIS, DRUNK
ON OUR OWN FREEWILL
CREATING KARMA
WE CHOOSE THIS.
