Rising From The Ashes

Rising From The Ashes

My life is a flow; first up, then down;
success always had its allure;
now, I’m living the life of a clown;
for nothing in life is for sure.

Life is the flow of a river, forbidden;
a treacherous journey to belief;
truth is the

A Temporary Status

A Temporary Status

The hardened reality of light,
retreats slowly to vapor,
the day overtakes the night,
gaining the Master’s favor.

Such is the illusion of reality,
it swiftly comes and goes,
this massive mist of duality,
