In - Within


There is a universe within you
To be captured - but it captures you.

The Planets are souls, awaiting their destinies
Your decisions are effective
Ending - or beginning their histories.

Always free to choose,
That choice is your freedom.

More will be determined as life goes on
Universal truth is not a lie,
Nor is it a con:

Only comprehension stands in your way
For true freedom, awaits your day.

Any decision rendered gives either peace or turmoil,
Corrections sometimes demanded,
This - the leftover toil.

The correct calling of judgment results in true peace
Only joy remains, in itself, a feast.

A never-ending occupation in and of the human flesh,
Called by God, is this job of fishing.
A net, with a living mesh.

God is within you, a universe within
To be captured is sure, but His patience grows thin.

You may think you captured life, all without doubt,
But without capturing each other, God will leave you out.

Reach for the dirty stars - this one you stand on too - if you must or desire,
Your only reward will be the sweat, which you perspire.

In - Within, is the real universe of truth and life,
All other aspects are -

Nothing more than self-made strife.
