Return To Mother
Go on go on with sense's slaughter ,
Of your biological parasites ,
The Mother Divine , cries and whines,
Seeing her children's plight .
Sinners were they never not ,
No sin had they ever brought ,
But in senses' play ,on their clays ,
Their Mother , they have forgot .
The mystic play, on the ground ,
Goes round and round ,
With sports and ,operas incessant ,
The referee's whistle ,-conscience' bell
And captain's dictate not to make a foul ,
Remain , remain unheard ,-although they haul .
The mother wishes , the mother cherishes ,
First . a righteous play , and then ,
To feel Her origin , the clay within green ,
For her children , by their birth , are divine .
Time She has allotted ,-of incessant births ,
For playing with Her children on this earth .
The child-like innocence , with no ignorance ,
And Faith-live ,-for mother's anchor ,
Open to the children , the recognition of immortal shelter .
