Hidden

Hatred hides
in the dark cave of ego
which sneaks out
when feeling threatened

the ego demands worship
you can’t usurp its throne
off with your head

the knife comes out of nowhere
slipping here and stabbing there
don’t come near -
bow down

ego is the self’s universe
demanding the orbit
to dance to its command

until the light comes on
and the curtain opens
the wizard is just a man

It is suffering that shoots streams of creativity out of my heart, and the brokenness of life that explodes my heart into its soul.
