Sunday poem: "A Doctrine Born of Fear"


A Doctrine Born of Fear

There is a doctrine born of fear,
one much too deep for man to hear;
but all the same, it is embraced by
the human race to avoid the call
of our essential nature, and it has
put the brakes to the natural process
of individuation; and not until we
see that we are more than what this
doctrine teaches will we transcend
our earthly ego and be what we are
meant to be, like the acorn, apple,
and tomato seeds that grow into
their own identity.
