The Tj Boy Poem by James Atil

The Tj Boy



He came with the sunrise;
evolve like the Cherokee;
flows with the butterfly's metamorphose;
and acts with no remorse.

In between this line, what lies ahead?
a food to have and to lose;
a shelter to gain and to recede;
or aspirations to achieve and actualize?

In this rise and fall, what makes him interested?
take a bite of the forbidden apple;
listen to the wisdom of the oracle;
or read the books of St. Thomas and Aristotle?

Thou, he may think as a potter
that the great beautiful tree takes form
Thou, he may act as a painter
that the magnificent world be in uniform

No. A certain shade of purpose is needed.
Yes. A self-actualization and Christian personalism.
Bait. He must believe that its a chicken before the egg.
Nay. A guiding principle to potentiality and actuality.

He's fading with the sunset;
with all the good memories that he will got;
foot prints will gone together with hes wit;
and rest with no regret.

The Tj Boy is what he is to come.
