Ethereal Scale


 

The idiom of opposition as nature,

extreme poles of ego in rapture.

On one side there is perfection,

one the other there is limitation.

Material weight here in demand,

influences that command.

Pursuits after the impossible,

chronic diseases not reversible.

Light of perfection and flame of hope,

regardless after all still in cope.

Discriminating between want and need,

contentment raises the weight in deed.

Equality longing for every living soul,

prophet and painter beyond the earthly goal.

Every beautiful thought gets entangled,

important knots with busy strangled.

Celestial law in just and perfect right,

the law in our balance to be proclaimed.

https://robertrittel.blogspot.com Living virtualistic through myself. The road I wanted to follow choose me and I can see the cosmos to know itself. I remember only moments where my actions manifested the belief of my passion, choosing my next universe through what I have learned in this one. My fears got lost in dreams, sensing what needed to be done with no thinking. I believe in fairy tales, especially with dragons and how to tame them. I do not need any strange faith to worship that celestial brilliance. Dismissing everything what insults my soul and faithful in those small things, because it is in them where our strength is.
