The Tower

From depths of eternal nothingness

my soul yearns­­ no ­­screams, for safe abode.

My ego mind dominates my life

and battles with my soul,

A battle which creates my destiny’s fate.

To suffer the fate of The Tower.

That card of Tarot that will turn your life upside down.

The Tower calls my name and once again, I must endure

this raging storm where

howling winds are voices of my past.

“You are worthless, incorrigible.”

are statements that echo in my mind.

As the raging sea assaults the towering walls

of this body, that my soul claims refuge;

the menacing attacks of the sea awakens

the monsters of my deep subconscious.

Monsters that has been dormant within my inner­ being .

Monsters that answers to the name of fear and loneliness.

When suddenly, karmic lightning strikes my tower and

sets ablaze my once safe abode.

With my ego threatened, I have no choice but

to cast myself from heights thereof

and fall into the raging storm of uncertainty.

To face joblessness, homelessness, and

banishment from family and friends.

Inebriation seems so inviting,

but this storm offers spiritual guidance

in its precipitation. To this I must cling.

For Jesus, Lord and Saviour

will bring the Sun to illuminate my path.

Whereas the soul battled with the ego

It finds peace with my divine right mind

where my soul now claims refuge.

To bring Love and Joy to this age old body

and learn empowerment through the

through the creativity of my soul.

How wretched it is to trod ​the​ ​path of the fool.
