~LOVE OF LABOR~
I DID MY PART AND MADE A MESS OF ME
GAVE MYSELF A BLOODY HISTORY
YOU DID YOUR PART OPENED THE DOOR FOR ME
LETS SLIP THROUGH BEFORE SOMEONE SEES
I USED TO WONDER HOW IT FELT TO "BE"
THOUGHT I DIDN'T EXIST YOU SEE
WALKIN MY PATH NOT CARIN' WHERE IT LEADS
NOW I'M HERE IT'S SO CLEAR TO ME
I CONFESS IT'S A LOVE OF LABOR
HAD A DEATH GRIP AROUND MY PAIN
THOUGHT THE WORLD IT OWED ME A FAVOR
SO WHY AM I OUT HERE IN THE RAIN?
DUG DOWN SO DEEP THE AIR WAS HARD TO BREATHE
HATE & GUILT KEPT ME COMPANY
TIGHTENED MY GRIP AROUND MISANTHROPY
'TIL IT WOKE UP THE GOD IN ME
I CONFESS IT'S A LOVE OF LABOR
HAD A DEATH GRIP AROUND MY PAIN
THOUGHT THE WORLD IT OWED ME A FAVOR
SO WHY AM I OUT HERE IN THE RAIN?
YES I CONFESS IT'S A LOVE OF LABOR
SO MUCH MORE THAN A SLIGHT REFRAIN
I'M LAYIN' ALL OF MY CARDS ON THE TABLE
I'M HEADED BACK TO THE SOURCE AGAIN
M.F.R. 9~8~13

brilliant writing, poem that actually comes from deep meaningful experience,, like a mantra,, ive noticed so many people recently seem to be writing poetry about this enlightening experience in unique individual ways yet the essence at the core remains the same ,stable, and recognisable to those who have been called and have journied thier way along the same neurological path ways, and the number just keeps on growing,, we are all connected i think and this spiritual awakening we are going through is like a mexican wave or chainmail , it only takes one to trigger another and then those two trigger two others and so on , its quantum entanglement in action,, i guess im rambling on so anyway ,, loved your poem and its significance,xxx |
