Gather No Moss
Like a rolling stone
You let go a moan…
Collecting no moss,
you crumble and break
Knowing that you will
pay for all you take.
If you choose the path of
abundance and prosperity,
You may recover your
composure and serenity.
The words and voices echo off
the deeper chamber of your mind,
You ineffectively try to gather
them together to find…
That you still do not
fit this jigsaw piece
Never have; you
cannot ever appease
The screaming demon that tries
to dictate what you might dream
Tyrannical elders smile,
as you falter and scream
In frustration after trying again,
And again to win this game,
That has a stacked deck meant
only for ‘it’ to understand the same.
Discovering it does not
matter to anyone but you,
If you lose in this circumstantial
evidence of due,
Calmly, you ground, center and then
cast; the confusion from your path,
As only you can; the universe
Unfolds; future, present and past.
