An aloneness rife with wholesomeness: A poem 

Do you think my aloneness was brittle or was char? 

Do you think it beset me with wounds or a mere scar? 

I had a dream that when I awoke simply got created 

It was a miracle; yet was defeated but never outdated 

You can see the stars at every nightly moment and hour 

Do you ever realise that there must be a dream gone sour? 

Whodunnit? Would you believe evil won it? But the summit 

still lies within the soul of the creator, not the one who stole it! 

I know the prejudices that I hold are not mistaken 

You must all know that what was mine was taken 

There are so many hands that make the work of treachery light 

Who wonders, then, if that original light is in no one’s sight?  

Do you all believe in true justice, or do you wish to fake it? 

The emblems of love and loyalty were all my pedagogy 

even if the resounding music must come out of percussion 

I am still a life working its way in mutiny, it is not without cause 

You must know my innocence is no ignorance, yet a loss 

I can be confounded at all times. Treachery’s iron may be hot; 

You may discount God for short-lived benefits, but you really ought not!

I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
