Today I shed my old self,
For I have worn it passed its prime,
There is no gradual shift expected,
But a quick rebuke of all habits,
Through sheer focus, and unwavering confidence,
The dissilience of which will thrill the universe,
There is no morrow for action,
It must be acted upon in the present moment,
Seek not only the end, but the journey that must be set upon,
No more justifications, just action is all that will be sought,
For each impediment, there are always two aftermaths,
Wait not a second more on the past or dreaming of the prospect,
Be here now in this moment, and examine yourself within in,
Your mind, body, and soul all must respond to what is within your control,
Let the rest fall by wayside; let it be someone else’s trouble,
You have the need to be exemplary for those seeking the same path,
The announcement has been made today,
As long as I have freewill, let it stay its course.



I speak insanity. I write fantasy. I sleep reality.

I usually shy away from writings that tell me what to do unless it's a court summons. But there's something to be gained in all writing and I found this gem in the middle of your poem Xeonux.

"No more justifications, just action is all that will be sought"
Good work.

Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here...please!
