Is Atlas in need of help (not the wrong help of the Wishmaster!)?: A poem 

You know the sheafs of truth and justice 

are not malleable, yet are like an eternal grassy  

meadow; that swing to the winds of time, 

but perennially stick to the earth, and have 

a fire of the Sun in their blades! Those who 

have lived to be immemorial edifices of duty 

know that memory is not a forgotten misbegotten 

place, but, itself, sets off a chain reaction. That all time is 

a tiled floor and you are placed where you step! 

Did I delve into so much ignominy to myself,  

fearing it? My answer is a vociferous `no!’ I am unlike the man 

who walked upon the waters and I am no fisherman; I walked  

on terra firma, and fire, to proceed into an everlasting alchemy. 

Not to become residual, but to become flame, and then, 

ether, and yet, then, to subsist for you all. That you  

deny me my nomenclature, and yet I walk in the worlds  

that reach the point of civilisation. This civilisation, 

that eventually becomes rotten through a misguided 

infiltration, and seeks to defend its rot! No pure and  

mighty leader, is free of the hijacking, however unwilling he is! 

This is the sadness of time-bound state. And I only have 

a compassion to free those who deserve to be free; and I 

 must also seek to protect all that deserve my love as well 

as also all my hors d’art from that poison. Is it not an immensely 

Atlassian task? Is it not a trial by fire for myself? And I also have  

to shudder in the thanklessness toward my duty at hand. Yes, I claim  

I need no gratitude, no acknowledgement, no recognition  

and no vindication. But even Atlas can get so worn out at times,  

overwhelmed by his task, that he may look for succour and support!

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.
