I.
Dreamer went sight seeing with Muse
on quest to find flower
imbedded within Sacred waters;
encircled by Lotus, immortalized in granite
and only recognized by Soul Seeker
who volunteered to hold heavy burden
of another on mortal shoulders
without complaint from conscious
or unconscious as unity, merge of Minds
aided Angels to bridge gaps
where rivets loosened, relationships spiraled
until healing could begin
and not end but evolve
Man from primates to super power
yet hindrances held reigns,
steered direction of winds current, called shots
instead of Spirit speaking for self;
Man locked freedom in closet, closed door
so fear instead, reigned supreme.
II.
Years accumulated to minutes as monsters
preyed with patience, feasted on emotions
until lapses in judgment jeopardized advancement,
quality of Life lived
while others watched disintegration of Dreams
become the burden instead of blessing.
next to bosom as acts of kindness
turned chore.
Pleasure became unbearable to understand
also relived in real world
for foe removed mask at night,
revealed nemesis underneath, neck up
covered by cloak.
Tables rotated, musical numbers a mirage
on piano blurred melody into melancholy;
instrumental lullaby lost
where the sun never set
because the Mind told it so
which Spirit believed.
III.
Twenty four hours in a day lasted longer,
sixty seconds drowned in pools by the minute
as decisions to cross threshold threatened
the very existence of energy within
also treasured teased on other side
to tempt tongue for a lap
of the purest waters, the eyes envisioned
but through the mist lay mud;
caked in residue of should have, could have
and wished self had done
while mosquitoes with malaria gifts, huddled
in circles for near perfect person
to cross their path.
Instructions written in scrolls scavenged
for later look through cracked spectacles
reversed letters and distorted drawings,
obstructed opportunities of success.
IV.
The negative perception perpetrated excuses,
combed hair sideways so sight blinded;
face contorted to controversial hieroglyphs
painted in personality’s ink~
detoured with duress, burden on steroids
increased in mass also movements slowed
to a crawl.
Ability to please with vigilant purpose
was warped in tunnel vision
till shoulders given break, back massaged
so ache alleviated to an extent
everyday embraced reason to Live
with sincere smile
alongside paved avenue freed of shards
from disappointments once mirrored
when Man made spiritual advancements
in consciously caged arena
after beast brought to its knees
and fears finally tamed.
