"Awakening"
When i was young
I wanted to be an adult
Not realizing how much
It would hurt
I survived the storm
I walked a trillion
Steps with you
Now I want to walk a trillion
More without you.
A poem about another chapter in my life. Its about the death of self. Not a literal death. But a metaphorical one. As i enter another chapter in my life.
"Catabolism"
Unsatisfied by my boiled roots
Put my flesh in my cauldron
Stir me
Let me bubble
Let my marrow flavor my soup
Pour me on my stalk-lings
Soon we will be everywhere
Lacking destination
In the dry heat of the desert.
A critical poem about the similarities and parallels between Christianity and Paganism.
