I’ve done my alchemy: A poem 

You can see I’ve become older and purer 

like a bird that has stopped flying 

yet, starts to fly with its eye 

I’ve done my alchemy 

The ever-burning bush has made me 

my own Yggdrasil tree 

I am beyond the dimensions 

like forming an infinity  

within the microcosm of vulnerability    

like the bindu that sits in the forehead 

that knows the moment before the first moment 

God is initiation and momentum 

Death and living, and living death 

The prosperity of poverty 

is in the recognition of its wholesomeness 

Like the seed that can envision  

its shrub, its flower and fruit 

before it takes root  

And such wisdom makes me believe 

that defeat is only a parcel of destiny 

like an object that has its own shelf-life 

And I am not (any more) wary 

of anyone’s treachery

Hi, I am Monte Cyril Rodrigues and live in Melbourne, Australia. I am a retired journalist. I have been diagnosed with schizophrenia. I've had voices and visions all my life. I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
