Through the Looking Glass

This is my inspirational poem on the meaning of life.

Through the Looking Glass

Many seek out an understanding

To fill the void that life is demanding

Needing for an explanation

To all purpose on this one planet;

Living in debt... wondering about

The meanings of progress,

For death and heaven

Seem the only escape

 

Sometimes we have faltered

And the heavenly stars

They seem just too brilliant

As with a hand we reach out

Yet, so far from our earth at a pause

And they say nothing to us

When we are in doubt...in misery

Always, speaking to us in riddles:

Who is there throughout?

What is this place all about?

 

 

Are my Ancestors watching from on high

Or are all of them a myth?

Are we a Scientific Puzzle or an evolutionary mess?

The speakers of a material world so complex, so overlooked

The Apocalypse is coming

All can read it in the book, yet

The answers remain as memories and glimpses

Of a fragmented dimension...

What we need now is something more than History

A growth spurt of love and peace…a New Revolution

An insightful explanation

The ressurection of Christ-Consciousness

The Consciousness of heaven.

 

 

After we die, without form

We become spirits at rest

Floating on and on

through the devices we project

and divisions

We look for some correction

To this...mistake we feel we have become

A world without a revelation

A ghost preserved but with no destination...

 

As we journey on earth, we take with us

The shadows of our deeds

Like clothes upon our backs

And who will give us slack

Who will remind us

There is more to this

There really was a purpose.

Who can take our source back?

And Who are we to judge those whe ask

Who are we to say we know

Are we the messengers

After all?

Or are we seeking another Christ?

 

Must we all go without finding the answers

To why we love and hate each other

Oh, the world is so confused

And some of us

yearn for the reasons

And then find one

To kill our brothers and sisters.

Some of us are scared..

we are all awaiting

yet are we truly prepared?

the source

of our suffering

The reason

we are here...

Or just a foundation

To persevere.

 

Everyone has a purpose

As the planet evolves

We evolve with the seasons

the resolves

As Earth revolves around the sun

Are we at the end of the all that is human

Perhaps we have just begun?

 

 

I chose my path and it chose me

my spirit knows who I am

You should question everything

Even in the place where you dwell...

Those in power need to seek progress

Those supposedly good should forgive

And listen to the spirit

The spirit of life.

 

Dreams speak to me

and through these songs and visions

I participate in a dance

In time, for time is movement

We we all have our chance.

 

There will be a symbol of our life: True Enlightenment

No longer an abandonment of Justice.

 

Looking through the looking Glass

We continue to observe

A world that is changing

And a planet moving towards reincarnation

Towards peace

Towards true reward.

Author's Note

Every day we do things, we are things that have to do with peace. If we are aware of our life..., our way of looking at things, we will know how to make peace right in the moment, we are alive.
