Implode

CATEGORY

Views: 179

We’ve been imploring

To higher powers in ever boring

Mass gatherings, tithing

Our freedom away, a penny at a time.

We’ve been saved

Yet still captive, still filling graves

We’ve been born again

Yet slowly dying from the many poisons

We call food or call faith

We found the “true god”, yet still dogs

In other people’s stories

Always the true something

Of someone else’s fake truth.

True Jews, true Israelites,

True Muslims, true Natives

 

What about our true self?

We’ve believed in everything but ourselves,

 None of it worked, now,

 

                                         Can we try collective healing?

                                         Can we try self-relying?

                                         Can we stop looking outward?

                                         Can we look inward?

 

                  Deep into our broken hearts,

                   In our clogged guts to find

                   The strength to snap out

                         Of the towering

                             Crap trap.

                              It’s time

                         To remember

                         We are made

                   Of the same essence

            Of the divine energy, blooming

          And creating through the cosmos.

 

                            It’s time

                        To remember

               Who we are, to regroup,

                 To take the next step.

      It’s time to implode, time to transcend
 

                       

                       Báŋ-É”-lú
