Benediction
By Tai Amri
Spirit In Action:
Strange Fruit

i came to this book
it's black blood
scribbling on the pure
white page
but as i began to reach
for the truth therein
i found
the message mingled beneath
written only in white
one side of the page
revealed the divine oneness of being
the other made plain
the restrictions
of human's innate truths
the restriction was clear
yet unaviodable
in this world
as we inhale
poisons
in their various faces
our death is prevalent
and imminent
one eye
seeks
divine culmination
in rectifcation
licking, loving
and swallowing
death
like its lover
and its nectar
drips off this
tree
called you
on that tree
is both
death
and life
in no particular order
though we believe the opposite
one eye chooses life
and in that life
is our extreme desire
of suffering
not only in samsara
but in our own
personal
crucifixion
the fruit
screams your divine name
through blood
and tears
begging you for release
forgiveness
and a kiss
eat it
