We Are Anything

my mind serves me
but cannot lead me

to Valhalla 

my aptitudes benefit me
but cannot guide me

to Mecca 

my body brings me
but cannot show me

to the Kingdom

and my darkness, my contentment
    are my choices in time
with my anger, my resentment
   and those choices

(what's mine)

we can choose to make that

which will kill us

we can choose to make that

which will save us

  its whatever we want

and it never was not

with the time that we have. . .

it was always our choice

so yeah...

 maybe we can't

ever know our own ends

so we act,

             as best as we can

with the time

that was given to us

how can you hold that against a human?
