What makes the mercury within me rise;
so I become a hothead of nature;
what makes me as one, whom I despise;
what’s the appropriate nomenclature?
What’s in emotions that I’m anti robotic;
setting me apart from machines?
My various emotions make me exotic;
was it something within my genes?
A sincere form of flattery may be imitation;
but believe, when I say I’m not pleased;
my emotions simply add a new limitation;
allowing that my thoughts become seized.
Emotions control all we say and do;
make us unique; just like our face;
our personality makeup, they imbue;
no effort or self control can erase.
The Master has control over our thermostat;
resisting our mercurial nature;
but, granting free will, placed a limit on that;
forgiveness has become His measure.
What form of being can we actually be;
that often seems so out of control?
What do we ever both hear and see,
creating our physical earthly role?
Why must emotion’s all be defeated?
What are feelings essential role?
All things mentioned, and more is needed;
to enhance the growth of the soul.
