Soul Searching

Dream big

But first

Think deeply.

Because

The intersection

Between

These two actions

Yields both

Elevation and

Undoing.

Wishing amiss

A precursor

To going astray.

Wanting

Too much

Herald to a

Striving

Not easily

Satisfied.

True

Men without that

Yen for

More

Are oft termed

Sad

Ambitionless

Lost...

States which then

Appear

Quite lustrous

Compared to a

Godless

Xanadu.

Unsubtle prompts

Steer us in

Compromising

Directions

Mammon

Nipping

At our ankles

Smirking

As the dance

Of death

Leads us

Off His chosen path

Into a gilt and

Guiltless jungle

Mirroring every shade

Of green.

Psychedelically

Drowning our sorrows

Zombie-fashion

By partaking in the

Wanton delights

Of our handbuilt

Earthly empires.

Best think

Poor.

In spirit.

Explore instead

His why for us.

Our minor

Yet essential part

In the all-important

How

Of others.

Think rudiments.

Cornerstone

Offshoot

Firm foundation.

Think purple.

Swap precious stones

For flax

Coronet

For victor's crown.

Less haze

More

Prince of Peace...

Regal

Splendid

Honourable

Noble

Words and deeds

That follow

The profundity of

Discernment-cum-vision.
