Thought Streams from The River of Life

Puddle of Thought

13,) MUNDANE CAMPAIGN,

Worthy of our present,

Waiting in the firmament,

Exists a perfect moment,

To present you enjoyment.

A life lived abundant,

Lying outside the redundant,

Mundane campaign,

You are worthy of the Game,

The present is yours to claim.

14,) QUIT,

Fighting this urge to quit,

Nothing has come of it.

Trying to crawl from this pit,

Where I wasn't a good fit.

It's killing my Spirit,

Climbing away from it.

My Energy just split,

I feel like I want to quit.

Falling back to the pit,

I refuse to submit.

15,) SHINING,

Rise above the undone,

Like the sun on the horizon.

A true faithful one,

Shining down on everyone.

The darkness on the run,

You're the ONE,

Who can't be undone.

Rising and shining,

Like the sun.

16,) STUCK IN A BOX,

ATOMS are the building blocks,

Building biological clocks,

Forming a world of soil and rocks,

Creating herds and flocks,

Designing this paradox,

You're an ATOM stuck in a box.

17,) TAKE A PEEP,

Digging down deep,

Searching for relief,

Doubt starting to creep,

Smothering my belief.

I'm just looking for a peep,

To lighten my grief,

I only want to sleep,

It's hard playing Chief.

Thank you for the Relief,

And the promises you keep,

I trust I'll receive,

Exactly what I need,

To see what I believe.

18,) DESIRE,

Chaos feeds the fire,

Comparing feeds desire,

To admire,

The wish to acquire,

Bringing NEED to desire.

Needing to feed the fire,

We get what we require,

Feeding the chaos of desire,

Burning down an Empire.
