Don’t Deceive Thyself

“For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.”
Galatians 6,3
Jah didn’t
create us
because in need
we just
futile servants
we die as live
the river
we beat
but we don’t move
a wata
it just seems
wise and mad
pawn and queen
clean and unclean
shall fall
the same pit
RastafarI
judgment
He brings
against each
unworthy
in comparison
with Him
we leach
from vanity
of image
and speech
difference
of several inches
shall flatten
our ego
in pieces
what can I esteem
when I am from
His casual
seed
and ignore
the destination
I reach
so many
historical sins
should teach
humbleness
and silence
unto me
more than
titles
of Rasses
institutional
self-praising
and hymns
the most
in universe
is unseen
Batin
inna small box
of awareness
we are placed in
coming here
the elder
who thinks
to have the solution
and nothing indeed
“orthodox” preachers
fighting the Divinity
of Selassie I King
iconoclastic
gurus, selling
their plastic
on tv
with fat arrogance
deceive
they will receive
even the strongest
one day
must be weak.
