Earth and Fire and Water
A desire to churn
To embolden
The tired.
The dreading.
The timid.
Spending time with
admiration. Left me angle –
Small dark corner to
the cobwebs.
Living leavened bread
from desert springs
not for all. Who by fire?
Who by boiling water? Who
by mass of crumbling ash?
Who to starve?
There is nothing new
under The Sun. Night and day
inspiring life in a pinpoint
of light. Marking Transition.
Where the gap
begins, where
it ends.
Not Earth and Fire and Water.
Not Air not Mind. They will betray
you all. Before the curtains draw.
Before the hero comes,
and after triumph.
Naked you came.
Naked you depart. The road
of excess leads
to the palace
of wisdom. And to the liberation
of the heart!
