Spirituality

the falling

 

they say there’s

 

an angel in

 

side of us all

 

but i say

 

unto you there’s

 

two

 

and while the one rises

 

the other must fall

 

they arise together

 

and neither could the one

 

ex ist with out

 

the other

 

 

 

this is a

 

truth so confounding

 

God herself

 

became flesh just

 

to ex-press it

 

though the light shines

 

in the darkness it is not

 

overcome

 

nor is it

 

com-prehended

 

 

 

were we to listen

 

to the better angels of our

 

nature

 

they would

 

inevitably

 

redeem us

 

from this un-whole-y

 

communion

 

such creatures as we are

 

mixture of piss and

 

shit and light

 

must not the stillness

 

within

 

ascend to the heavens

 

just to

 

comprehend it

Transcendence (And Body Politic)

Author's Notes/Comments: 

(Reedited hashtags, by adding only the following key words:  Foucault, biopwer, body politic),


"Transcendence (And Body Politic)", w/c is also an affected poem, previously titled "Transcendence", is a repost from my Twitter platform (inevitably composed on April 29, 2017/at around "06:58"...based from the deemed quirky causes & that perhaps had sprung from thoughts of a possible love interest (rather assumptive [on my part] & my motivations were unclear; thus, a type of a poem like this was done).  Also, I had edited this version (a little bit by modifying the use of punctuation marks & perhaps the stanzas/form, those were minor tweaks).
