The eyes have an effect on the soul


The eyes have an effect on the soul.

The gentle water erodes the day.

What is possible changes with opportunities
leaving an indelible stain

You bury yourself
down on the list of things to do

Life drags you and pulls you
and forces you and manipulates you

You are still in there somewhere
sleeping

Remember

The eyes have an effect on the soul.

One little aha moment
and you live in a different reality

You can go from dead to resurrected
in one elevated heartbeat

The mind can touch the unknown
and dance with imagination's dreams

Don't let them confuse you
and trick you into giving up your true thelema

agape is but the mirror image
of appreciation

The eyes have an effect on the soul.

Gnostic Tom 2013
