Analysis of Middle Pathway

Jamie Tierney 1991 (Cardiff)



Patrolling the middle path isn’t for everyone,
Finest of lines between lightness and depths of dark,
Banishment of demons to protect those leading from heart,
Reminding all, intent may lead to mourn.

Anchorage safe for those on soul mission,
Higher powers hand awaiting to push forward or recall,
Better or for worse, results in being upon pedestal,
Ultimately we only control ourselves, embody discern.

Between shadow and light, lay lost souls,
Adding to ranks and legions of the unlighted automatically,
No longer time to free from spiritual prison gradually,
If earth falls, physical prison also enrols.

About this poem

Sooner we break through the spiritual prison, sooner we break the physical prison then balance shall rein.
