    Poem Commentary

    This poem was written with the disdain in my heart at having been born into such an ignorant society of beings.

    The Flame is lit


                        A vengeful flame has been lit
                        Within my lonely heart true
                        Religion a mask upon the masses
                        The Sun rises an orb of fire and flames
                        Into each nature an angel does climb
                        His heart filled with a truth oh so pure 
                        Flowers wave their velvet petals to a sun drenched sky
                        Warmth of creation holds us close
                         

                        Standing roots planted arms reaching to the sky
                        The Great Buddha said," Each of us is a God...
                        Each of us knows all we need only to open our minds
                        And hear our own wisdom."
                        These are wise words however
                        This world is void of wisdom.
