In Good Time All Things Come


I am Tyler

Who became enbodied with ambition

Who was oversaturated with passion

Who through longbearing the pain of pride and passion

Became well endowed with the easiness of wisdom

For in scripture I became wealthy

I sought to take what I did not have

I recieved nothing in my hands

I was likened to a man grasping at the air

Hoping to take in his hand the full power of the bright body

I became the bright body

I was he who had the full energy

Like a man who thirsts I was given freely to drink

My thirst was quenched and I was happy

For I recieved all in nothing and nothing in all
