on this journey

of this alleged soul


I see that the world

and the empyrean


are one and the same


I wished so hard

to leave the world


but leaving creation itself is harder


and frankly I love consciousness too much

to condemn myself to the Unmanifest


if my sins are my responsibility

so is my salvation


with no hope of help from the Ineffable Source

I stumble on whether God likes it or not...
