Can one darn the immortal hole
In the sock of experience that chafes the rubber-worn sole
Of the shoe that doesn’t fit
That doth tread the path of uncertainty and risk
Can one re-weave the flimsy fabric
Of a threadbare soul
That doth ponder at the point
Of a heartless commercial world
Can one repair a forlorn and forgotten heart
So ragged and frayed and falling apart
From trying so hard
To love lost and damaged souls
Earth-bound angels
Whom hath but only one wing
To save them from the danger of their self-seduced egos
So ready, eager and willing
To sacrifice themselves and die
In pursuit of a fake western dream
To live a synthetic lie
Indelibly imprinted upon the lids of ones minds-eye
Entombed by in-built expiry
an excellent poem, a poignant rendition of modern-day sentiment. ah, but this is our age – what to do?

Hello Raphael’s Legacy, =) yes indeed challenging times for us mortals…”Mankind is going through a transformation. You are at a cross roads. In one direction lies peace and abundance, in the other, conflict and scarcity. Its time to become aware of ones own personal thoughts on a ongoing daily basis for one can assist mankind by evolving ones thoughts… Use your imagination to picture the highest healing path you can take, to create a vision of why you are here… As you become filled with light, your power to affect the world around you increases.” [Orin] Personal Power through Awareness by Sanaya Roman
