Art and Soul

You may have been Told
You Were Born a Sinner,
Your Soul
Besmirched and Broken,

Only Redeemable
by the Death
of Another.

Or perhaps Your Soul is
a Blank Slate –
Take Care
What’s Written There,
Lest You,
or Another –
If You Permit It –
Write a Tragedy,
or a Farce,
or Some Bore of a Story.

But What If
What You Are Is
a Beam of Light,

Aimed from a Flame
Made of Undiluted Love,
Forever Pure and Deathless,
Twined,
even at a Cosmic Distance,
With Every Other Light,
as if There Is
No Distance at All.

And, What If
Your Soul Is
The One-of-a-Kind
Shine
that Radiates from
The Beam That Is You,

and You –
and Only You –
Are Meant To Be
a Sculptor of Your Shine.

That’s Why You Are.

To Make Art
of Your Soul,
as Your Part of
The Glimmer.

Take as Many Orbits
as You Need.
The Cosmos Is
Your Gallery.
