FLESH BONES

i think it's not true
there be one soul in charge
lIkely one distant home that
we all roamed at large but we...

chose the flesh sin
over beauty of mind
never knowing at all only hell
would we find for...

the largeness of spirit 
cannot be contained
so the love that we were mostly
vanished with taint because...

flesh bones are needy and
tarnished with greed
so tis only on death
do we find our true breed...

Last lines were “bone chilling” very thought provoking and filled with many truths. Unfortunately greed seems to be more familiar than kindness, in this dog eat dog reality.

Hi Rob...honestly...more and more I think we are spirit by nature ...body less and that our true home is somewhere out there in the cosmos. We only wanted to feel the physical...kind of like a DNA experiment but that came with a cost. We changed from.being beautiful to greedy and evil..hence this shit pit of a world....or I may be mad ...you decide lol x

I don’t think you’re mad, I think you’re stubborn like me. We want a definite answer as we curiously search for a purpose or cause behind all the pain… Religion bothers us because it requires us to take everything at faiths face value, that’s hard … we want answers…

Your poem perfectly describes when we will know for sure… 

“flesh bones are needy and
tarnished with greed
so tis only on death
do we find our true breed...”

I’ve adopted my own theory , we all are Gods, based on how you treat people, act , behave, live… will determine how you led your world… this theory motivates me to be the best I can be and still be compassionate for others. If I must face a one and only God one day this is something I can defend as I’m not defying him or going against him but just trying to make a positive belief that allows me to align with being a good person, citizen, sibling, father, etc . 

Along the way maybe more light will be shed for me to adapt and adopt new beliefs, but for now I’m just trying to capture and hold dearly something positive I can run with. 

hugs back ~Rob

You are doing well...I've always thought that regardless whether there is a big man in the sky...religion is good for giving a foundation for society. Ie/ the ten commandments. Imagine if everybody was kind, gentle, compassionate, never got mad, refused to give in to the negative emotions and showed only love and kindness then we would have a perfect world wouldn't we...maybe there is something in this ...God thing... unfortunately for me I'm...confused. com. x

I would expect God to be very patient and understanding, so as long as we don’t contradict his demands or commandments and we continuously seek the truth while being a positive impact on others etc then if we are wrong hopefully we wouldn’t be persecuted or he may align the stars to the point it’s hard for us to deny … just my theory and I will admit I have had some eye opening coincidences and very unique situations take place where I contemplated … maybe fear is associated a little, because if we knew it was that easy then we would only have ourselves to blame … 

I think about this a lot , I do know from my very first post on here until now, I have grown miles and miles , I also know a ton of people on here that support me are believers and they don’t treat me differently and show nothing but kindness and a couple of them I respect greatly based on their poetry and the way they handle themselves…. 

Only we can decide for ourselves and in our own time.

You speak a lot of sense Rob and at some point in my past I'm pretty sure i was on the same path. Unfortunately a great loss caused an earthquake in my spiritual beliefs...this earthquake destroyed the sky as well as earth....all see now is completely  empty space ...maybe in time it will fill again...who knows. Keep searching your truth lovely man...hugs x

Energy condensed into these little flesh vessels. One day to be freed back into the cosmos. I loved reading this. I also like how each stanza flowed into the next. The last sentence continues into the start of the first stanza. It echoes that eternal flow and aimless journey which this life can feel aimless at times. Do we move into another existence from this one, or do we ascend back into the main ethos ? Food for thought. You tickle the big question here…why are we here? xx
