Count Not Trophies



Everyday circumstances set the stage

Supplying the weapons to split the cage

Opening dungeons with stale scripts, too

Of tomb rallied anger not subdued

Observe emotion change with rapid speed

Revealing buried passion of artistic sensual need

Interested in entering the door marked, “It’s not for sure”

Then, commit thyself to winding paths, lived in a blur

Without memorized security to plant thy feet

Leave vestiges of discernment in rubble indiscreet

Live courageously without a thought

Investigate; then deny all beliefs that begin “thy ought”

Forge ahead without holding back

Experience "YOU" who has no lack

Be courageous enough not to apologize

Or foolishly invest in beguiling lies

Speak only when you think you have nothing to say

Count not trophies offered as prized possessions on any given day
