I have heard so much talk
about the soul
But little evidence. Perhaps there is no
Evidence. Evidence, by its very nature,
Must exist in this world,
in time and space.
Perhaps, the soul doesn’t
exist in time
And space. The ego does.
The id does
And so does the self. Look at the evidence.
Hunger. We eat
day and night, if we don’t
We starve. We drink soda and booze…
And coffee. We work for money.
There’s never enough. We spend
So much time thinking
about sex
Which we sometimes call
love. It’s
Us against the world. We’re right,
You’re wrong. Do unto others what
Gets done to you. The
soul is silent.
Not really. The soul is singing—songs
Of Joy, Praise,
Thankfulness, Love.
We can’t hear them because
of the noise
Of self, the noise of the
ego, the noise
Of the world to which we
cling like
A drunken sailor.
Sons of Adam,
Daughters of Eve,
Do you accept
responsibility
For the world you created?
You ate the apple.
Now it is yours.
Love it like you own it.
