arms to embrace




you have given me much moons

and plenty of many an opportunity

yet i remain absolutely empty

but pleading from you for more!



awake now my soul! for it is time

to rise from sleep and slumber

to un-hoard the clutter of desire

in that nothing, the ego, act as if all



instead stretch your arms to embrace

the homeless, the hermits, the marginal

and the bleeding, walking also to the jail

to set free the broken-wing birds to fly!
