16.) I Cannot Quickly Pass The Thing That Matters...




I cannot quickly pass the thing that matters
The furrowed line of Adam’s legacy in me
Its deepest twist, the hidden crooked thing in me
That trips me up, but tricking, avoids its censure
My subtle subterfuge that tells me fibs... but
The lie undone that hangs the apple on the tree
Reveals the core of what it is I truly need to see
To lift me clear of all, to fly in un-imprisoned air!

Light, the freeing thing comes not by might or power
What I cannot know in mind I know in spirit
That under life beneath the life I lead
The castled dream thick walled, un-scaled
That only slowly passes by, unknown, untried...
Misread the map beneath the Map that told my tale
That Book to all the throng is veiled
None can breach its crystal walls that will not fail

Light, the lonely thing, forever hid beneath the life
The only jewel of those, whom their own-selves knew
