A cautionary tale and inspiring poem for the inner child
🪬
When you go to school
Be aware of ghouls
Who’ll lead you to ugly things
Dismantle your fright
And focus your sight
Seek out other queens and kings
Who know themselves
Who stand up to fear
Who resist spells
Whose eyes are so clear
Dodge the bull!
Your heart must be full
To see through the walls and veils
Unleash your badness
To expose the madness
Your fear is not Love never fails
Face it and fight it
Show faith, do not hide it
This tale is for you, please help write it
Few are born good
Few are born bad
Most are set somewhere between
Evade malevolence
Practice benevolence
Care will release your good genes
And hold space for lovely things
No, I don’t mean cars or rings
You know these things, they’re part of you
Yes, take care of lovely things
And know that they’ll always bring
All of their care back to you
Dodge the bull!
Keep energy full
Obstruct those who seek to enslave
This game will end badly
If fools suffer gladly
Once grounded you’ll make a shock wave
When talking and reading
Make sure you’re perceiving
the facts from the “feelings”
Words have many meanings
Learn lessons that help you to know and to grow
But don’t be taken for a fool
There are too many people who think they know
And not enough people who do
Inhale, exhale
Notice details
At all times you must be aware
Of odious groups
Lest you step in poop
Protection comes when you’re in prayer
But pray to Ancestors, Higher Self, Inner Stand
And not to the vain gods created by man
In this world there’s sure quite a few
If false gods are believed
Those prayers become dis-eased
That’s that “Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo”
Cuz first you’ll see wonderful things
And you will think that you have wings
To glide past your problems, start anew
But soon you’ll feel painful stings
Difficulty they will bring
A whole host of struggles back to you
First life will be like a good song
But best believe that you’ll find
All the things that you’ll see go wrong
Will go wrong at the same time
You’ll be shackled by your feet in a game of chance
Cuz your praises were kidnapped in a demon’s trance
So don’t fall for the bull…always watch your back
Be smart, move with Grace, and then dodge the hijack
Then, push through the sadness
And cultivate gladness
In every thing that you do
You choose the status
Goodness or badness
And Karma brings Justice to you
With close sisters and brothers
Best friends and best cousins
Gran, mothers and fathers
Gramps and siblings’ youngins
Loved uncles and aunties
All pets and all offspring
Let them be the grantees
Of your charm
Cause them no harm
And with them and ALL others
You must help them discover
The TRUTH, their soul’s alarm
If with them you’ve mind unity
Go and form kind community
live, work, play with them, get along
If one starts disunity
Don’t give them impunity
In community, ALL belong
Don’t celebrate blame
Or elevate shame
When speaking with your loved ones
Audit your feelings
In all of your dealings
But be honest and clear with each one
And then listen intently
And communicate gently
Patience can’t be overdone
You must make yourself vulnerable
With ones you most give honor upon
Your hearts, your soulmates, 3rd eyes
And when it comes to discerning
You must never stop learning
From each other, you ride or die
On family trees
Love makes all the leaves
Each leaf is unique, not just one
Love is not free
Not just about “me”
Yes it must be earned
With care and concern
Love is not fake
You must give to take
It doesn’t come easy
Expect within reason
Focus on easing
In every season
Your mind’s insanities
Don’t sigh frantically when
You struggle to reach kin
Or shout profanity
In time they’ll conceive
A vision that weaves
Delusion’s gravity
If you can’t stick around
Until truth is found
Go, let them live fantasy
But don’t stop believing
That they’ll be redeemed and
Don’t plant bad seeds in
Your mind
That is where you’ll find
The seat of the Divine
Who steers your soul
To make it whole
Your mind’s the place Ancestors called the Ark
Sailing the sea of Love with all the sparks
Use your brain
To help you change
Your hijacked mind
Your soul will then find
A way to go forth
And affirm your worth
Yes, do mental Work and know
No other but self you control
Reject mind’s internment
Use 3rd eye discernment
Allow it to help you see quirks
In this grand Matrix
Notice when it plays tricks
They’re signaling your Spirit to Work
Harbor no hostile feelings
Love always brings the reel in
To catch all the wayward souls
When trouble stirs
And evil’s near
Pray to Ancestors
And have no fear
If evil ones come
Surrounding your space
Call Ancestors to
Make them go with haste
If evil tries to take Love away
Or it conjures disguise to make you betray
Your tribe, those who you most enjoy
Don’t let it keep schemin’
Exorcise your demons
And make sure its will’s not employed
Dodge the bull!
Let base feelings lull
Use knowledge and logic to gauge
Intuition’s deployment
You are a clairvoyant
You know that this world is a stage
Mind where you tread
And take care of your head
Sometimes the bad
Can lead to the good
And sometimes good leads to the bad
Develop and use Intuition
In every decision
And “endings” will make you quite glad
