Come to Success

Mountain Path with sun rising overtop

 

When stings stab
leaving red soreness on the flesh,
a bump inflamed
enraged,
the body defends itself.
Reactionary
contrary
unquarantined,
contrainidicated.
The bite sinks
deeper than the surface
into the menagerie
of the mind.
it persists,
pestilance
petulance:
torn trappings of the soul.
What now remains,
but pain?
A wavering between
Light and dark
Life and death
Heaven and hell
Goodness and disturbedness.
Until the Call to remember-
Leave away the inflaming sores-
Come to God
Come to success.
