Ambrosial (featuring 3rdEYErising)

it seems to be a human pattern
judging others by their entrance
 
entranced....not my fault tho
 
if I walk into a room 
& speak of my healing
I'm instantly assumed 
to be all in my feelings
 
reeling in truth...kinda rude
 
if I make mention of darkness & my trials
now I'm morbid 
& determined to wallow
 
swallow or spit...your choice
 
if I speak on our symbiosis with nature
I must be a tree hugging granola cruncher
for the record...
I'll hug any tree...
...keep the granola...
 
save the leaves...entendre
 
if I neglect addressing the environment 
I'm classed as a selfish tyrant
 
while pleading a 5th of...[fill in my blanks]
 
if I bring up spirituality or religion 
well, I'm either an unwashed heathen
...or a zealot bible thumper
 
spreading thighs full of inquisitions
 
if I bring up sex...
I must be a slut
if I don't...
I'm frigid
there really is no winning
 
just more sinning...
somehow hoping for sainthood...

 
what is this obsession 
with slapping on labels
when in reality...
we're all...
all of the above
& every stage in between 
 
conjugal at root
 
we're human beings
don't get shit twisted
it's just a moment
...not a thing
