THEN I WILL FLY

�IAmSparrow 4/7/99

If I could somehow empty
the chambers of my mind
Of things that trouble, torment
and so tightly bind..

'Cast off the yoke of responsibility
and the heavy one of duty
In all things see not the dross
but only view the beauty.

Determined never to conform
to man's opinions of patterns set
to fear not the cloudy mist
or worry that I never will, because I haven't yet.

To gather� the energies
of desire, ambition and also hate
Then Channel them all together
to take me through the gate.

If I could differ between
no wanting and wanting not
Then I'd have the freedom
to with the seagulls cast my lot.

To accept that to truly live
The Old self must surely die
Only then will I spread my wings
and through the heavens fly.
