He is all things to everyone
And nothing to none
He is the bender of your will
He is the only one

He is one of his own kind
But likes to lose his mind
He is an enigma, a paradox
He is the traveler in time

He is full of laughter and light
Yet thrives in the dark of night
He is blindness to all
He is the eyes to your sight

He is hatred and love
But none of the above
He is the foot out the door
He is the hand in the glove

He is the good and the bad
Of all mankind has had
He is what you call free will
He is all that is happy or sad

He stands for peace through violence
And loves the utter silence
He is the one who is out loud
He is sub-conscience

 Do you live by the book, do you play by the rules
Do you care what is thought by others about you
If this day is all that is promised to you
Do you live for the present, the future the past...

hmmm, a real thinker, this one.

First thought was:  God
Then, saw your ending, but subconscious,
hmmm, could also be a part of God?

Thank you for the suspense.  We have all been surprised.  And how true.

You have spoken to the 'him' in me with this, JML.  Thoughtful indeed...Thank you again, for the pondering.
