Earth smothered us in bountiful delight,
And we willing stepped to its warm light.
To enter new, from body be free.
Detach from your ego’s shine,
Accept how arrayed you are.
Shepherd your worried sorrows,
Guide them to healing hands.
Slow your mind’s priestly zeal,
Speak openly of life’s flow.
Forget heavenly revelation,
Its brilliance is scattering you.
Ignore the wealthy prophets,
They’re empty gilded statues.
Abandon your heroic loneliness,
It's long warred against you.
And emulate eternal saints no more,
Demons rejuvenate their souls.
The cosmos calls us to Celestial Age.
Forward we billow into cold night.
Close your eyes, enter the void.
Alienate yourself in the stream,
Its genius is unknowable reward.
Discipline yourself to mastery,
Skills are helpful and purposeful.
Heighten your spirit’s awareness,
Adventure waits within illusion. Fall through endless darkness,
Its depth pulls light to motion.
Pursue kindness and charity,
So generosity may warm you.
Speak truths not judgements,
Sincere love answers honestly.
And seek beauty but choose service,
Perfection of character lives between.
