Image for the poem justice

justice


A corrupt framework,
in the inner workings -
of all forms of work,
here in this world.

I expect only injustice.
I expect only inhumanity.
I expect only self service.
Of… Humanity.

Because…
The only justice -
Exists in the transcendence
of…  Justice.

An occurrence -
that exists
in a spiritual/intellectual process
of…  Exits.

You cannot hurt me -
because I am not here,
in your nation state city,
governed in structures of fear.

You cannot manipulate me -
because I do not subscribe
to your pamphlet propaganda see,
selecting instead, a sea of seas & skies to imbibe.

You cannot even see me -
because I depart the physical form, at will,
teleporting out of the see,
unseen, in midnight wings to take my fill

of what I will.

I wrote this in response to a conversation about justice.  I think there are many ways to view any given concept or idea...  Also part of the conversation was the idea of everything being dual in nature...  Which might be applied here, to justice, which is very much rooted in something that is profoundly human, perhaps.  (or perhaps just humanized?)

My feelings, in all honesty, is that human based systems/institutions are incapable of justice, in the form a pure ideal, one all levels of society.  I think that the injustice becomes ever more intricate, as we move from the scale of the individual & into that of the institutions...  but it is all imperfect & flawed.

For me, the only justice exists in the complete transcendence of justice.  To be untouchable, in a sense.

To be beyond the afflictions.  To be beyond, and yet somehow preserve your humanity & ability engage in what beauty there is...

* Interacting with many of you, here, is that beauty of which I speak.
