Until You Are Set Free..... Poem by RIC BASTASA

you submit yourself
to the judgment of the gods

they look at your work
and they dislike it and you agree

and since then you think you are
not that good, the gods say so

there is something which you are blind
of and which they deny from you

if you have gone to the top of the mountain
and confer with the wind and the stars

you could have heard the truth: you are more
than the gods, and they do not want you to know it

you are in this body, it bleeds,
you are in this mind, it is limited

beyond all this is you, inside the body
inside the mind, until you are set free....
