The Free Thinkers Ministry
The Free Thinkers Ministry
How my mind meanders,
How it often twists unwittingly!
Does this infer I give a game away;
An implausible contest that implies –
Only dualism on the brow?
Maybe!
Maybe I’m stuck playing head tennis
Like a rogue smoking council block resin,
Trying to find meaning in acts I find demeaning
And everything and anything is possible,
Or so you think, as you lay
Within the constraints of a form you didn’t ask for.
It is a curse!
A worst case scenario from adagio
To pianissimo and all within a second
Of when the chord was struck,
And the heckling betrays their fears that,
That,
Upon the mind of everyone,
Upon the constant chatter and the natter
Of your thoughts,
There is upon the globe
A third permissive way.
If you step outside the box
For just a moment, a minute of your time,
You can see all irregularities we try to order
And objectively,
You disengage awhile
The absurdity of the notion that,
That,
Man is only here to be constrained – restrained
Within the confines of a never ending tug o war.
Be not pulled by this I say,
Or by that, that which makes the levelling
Of psyche a detrimental cause,
Be open I concur!
Make the very rope,
Then throw upon a mortal the very lifeline
That is needed, and save another virtue
From the battling of the wall.
I’m preaching yet again I guess,
But it’s just that,
That,
I don’t want to see you lose your life
And become a vacant just existing –
A being without living and tending other
Souls,
There is gratitude to give
For the gift that you behold,
And loathed I’ve been for many years
To accept the very same that falls within
Your scorn,
But your birth was no mistake,
Neither mine or his or hers.
Realize the gift!
Realize the concept of inherent joy
Inside,
And find the heart adorned to you
That you keep within your conscience –
A blind side single point of view,
That happiness, is your grasp,
Outside your reach!
Your life was born to live,
To live within a free state of being,
Grab it and make it home to your compassion,
And know,
Enlightenment soon come!
