A Very Fine Line Poem by Edwina Reizer

Many, many times in this life of mine,
I find we're all walking a very fine line.
We believe that what we all perceive is real.
But somewhere in my heart that's not what I feel.

Locked in this body, locked up tight
is a being I know that wants to take flight
away from the hum-drum and daily routine
that becomes what I experience as if in a dream.

Read the good book. It will show you the way.
That's what they preach in the church every day.
But the good book is filled with murder and gore.
It reads like a fairytale filled with folklore.

No, this brain I was given says to my mind.
'Get off the fine line or you never will find
why they tell you that most of your DNA is junk.'
The reasons they give you are nothing but bunk.

Open up your brain and you will see why
you have been told such a terrible lie.
In this great big universe that has no end
we, as beings will have to ascend.

The only way out is through love, not fear.
The fine line we walk will try to keep us here.
We must let go of our Gods and idols
and then we must eventually choose

to exalt ourseves in the Creation of Light
or stay in the darkness and lose.
