day 182 . tree of life

tree of life

created to create

life now sentenced

to carry demons

cast from the vessel

hanging in the breeze

awaiting the maggots

to rip him apart

erase him to eternity

giving back the life

to this magnificent tree

tree of life

How fitting to read this after I replied to your comment, life, the wicked, uncontrollable beast we are given, but, were we asked if we want it?

  True. Not asked. Just thrown in it. Now they wonder what the fuck happened when they see nonconformists pushing the boundaries…

I’ve been thinking on my own ancestral wounds the past few days and this post resonates out so clearly to me. I love your mind and your writing. I feel connected.
