We… who are…
Made in his image
Of stardust…
Must somehow …realize…
The myriad maze…
With which to employ
Specialized …magic…
Of survival…
As its opposite
Having claimed, so many
A pathway paved
With hapless souls
…encapsulated…
In the minds
Of others…
Perhaps, by mothers…
Gifting …sacrifice…
Sharing …precious secrets
To maintaining sustenance…
Caring for their young
Memories …of times…
Starvation hovers
As close as death…
Measured by
Each labored breath…
Until the next meal
Recalling chance…
One which may
…never come…
More than we know
Seeds of mankind…
Trapped in our sense
Of growing…
Need…
We …are more than
Just another mouth
…to feed,
Making judgments…
Of
Success or failure…
Spreading …
Hope and love
When all seems most dark
And hopeless,
We… who…
Just as…
Children of the world…
Cling through the womb
…of time…
Find reason
To rely… on hope
And love…
As life flows, within…
To climb their way through
Impossibilities…
United …for a cause
…to be…
As we grow …to learn…
Good from evil…
Share joy…
Enlisting
Other people…
Which provide
More than company…
Endurance…
…a lifeline…
For the motion
To be continued…
Making love…
More than reproduction,
A
channel…
More to rear
…than just to… pass
Our secrets through
When hubris… alone,
Just will not do…
And the mood of abandonment
Leaves us at the lions lair…
With little chance to
Be …continued…
Do as you please…
Tends, not to…
Give our path a second view
Consuming flesh…
Erasing, spiritual pathways
Ensuring… what is precious…
Will lie …useless…
Like a disease
A disability
…to feel its presence…
…no more
Goodness
…knows…
These
Moments, we now share…
As we… learn
Despite, all…
What …the cost…
Mourning, what is lost…
Between our accomplishments
…and our dreams
To grow…
And if we look at things
Most honestly…
Though, you may laugh
In jest… about it all…
The fun and games…
Of …all…
The fun of things…
Learned… once…
Done …to impress…
A …booty call…
Who says… that’s not
What brought …you here
Carried the soul and your spirit through
Past the pain …and noise…
Beyond abandonment
…across the void…
Of never to be…
To become
A citizen …of eternity…
And brought…
This life …to you
