Sons and Daughters of the First Born

Sons and daughters of the first born

From original source we were all shorn

Progeny of the brightest stars

All were unwitting avatars

Look out at the world

Into which we were hurled

Flung from the quiver

Each a message to deliver

We struggle to stand

In this dark hinterland

No longer can we hide

Behind eyes now open wide

The oldest of souls

Living truths will extol

Dropping wisdom of the ages

Like pearls from the sages

They endeavor to bring unto (wo)man

The true vision of the master’s plan

Your so-called truths need some revision

There never was a spiritual division

On shoulders to bare an original sin

No wrong was done by ancestral kin

This world given to us to explore and tame

We were not sent here to swim in shame

This an untruth you were sold

To shackle the beings created so bold

Fret not about the wrongs and rights

We all experience the dark and the light 

Whether good or bad not for you to perceive

The fruit has not fallen so far from the tree

On different paths we are set to learn

Another’s lesson is not your concern

If your eye offends you then pluck it out

That decision for others not what you’re about

Judge not as we have long been told

Or henceforth you will be judged ten-fold

With false honor we cry eye for an eye

But this my brethren is yet another lie

The truth was revealed; even babes know

You only will reap that which you will sow

Whether walking in love or in earthly malice

The same you will drink from the golden chalice

Ego untamed that villain of old

In truth this is your pot of gold

Universal conscience the contingency plan

Your individual beauty your ego-(wo)man

Whether wide is the path or narrow the way

Who among us can absolutely say

Undeniable truth for one and for all

It’s pride alone that will cause you to fall

Refusal to seek your truth that’s within

Finds feet that are pathless again and again

These pearls stolen by antiquity thieves

Time to get up now; off your knees

It’s not for you to bow and cower

Earthly presence of the highest power

Sons and daughters of the first born

Original source is that which we mourn

Progeny of the brightest stars

We all are now fallen avatars
