Would the question resolve the problem?: A poem 

Does it befit a world to be in an Auschwitz of souls? 

Would you want to settle in a dystopia, where belief 

is founded on the bedlam of truth? You can be the water 

of your soul or its lunacy? But I am never going to  

vouch for it! It is not even my bedlamp, lit up in  

my sleep! I know who is the one who is constantly 

trying to eat up my feet! I just decide when I must walk, 

and when I should talk. Even my silence was my ambition, 

if you can call selflessness an ambition! The surf is not 

my sofa, even if it rises and ebbs at another’s beckoning! 

I know that a whisper is louder than all the din on the planet; 

I assure you it would be better if salvation came in  

a spaceship that took us away from these disgusting ages, 

I shouldn’t want to lock the door, when I threw my key 

into a void that should shut the door or open it to consequence. 

All these events are not of my making! I am just a volume that  

cannot be judged by its cover. The devil has known that, 

And now the deep sea should know that? Even my ambivalence should  

not be made circumspect, and make you believe in your pithy resolutions.  

I am a breakpoint and a deuce. There can be no imposed victory!  

Perceval, who was the mountain that pierced the valley, 

resolutely did not ask the Fisher King the question,  

not because he forgot to ask it!  He was determined not to  

make the Piscean febrile land an oasis. And a hungry waiting age  

of Cancer/ Aquarius had already wounded the Fisher King  

in his thigh. There was no healing. Perceval was still resolute, 

even when they paraded John the Baptist’s head. Perceval  

did not want one water for another. But would it resolve the blistering 

problem, If I now ask the eternal treachery (PSP), the question: 

Do you have a conscience? Do you deserve my forgiveness?  

I know my determined answer to that!

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.
