liberation and jeans

You were ashes to ashes dust to dust,

my dearest, brown girl

skin glistening; listen

from what i was borne i will return to;

the snake chases it tail and created the world-

a never ending loop of karma, rebirth and glory,

Mother Mary and her son both holy

you light the candle in the many houses

of one God. i seek the light and freedom

from jealousy, i venture to many lands,

begging and seeking succor,

but little did i know the biggest journey

comes from within. The Wheel of Life spins

ten gurus within and without the wonderous lives 

i want to understand, the spirituality, the one 

path, but is there one path?

I apologize for being jealous- I apologize for 

not taking responsibility, I apologize for the 

ego and the mundane way i threw your name 

about dear Lord, but blind faith is a journey

the wheel of Life continues to spin

the mortal i am i put my jeans on

and continue the journey within.
