As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world - that is the myth of the atomic age - as in being able to remake ourselves. Mahatma Ghandi

Poetry


We Are Our Own Worst Enemy
by Vincent Parisi

We are our own worst enemy
It’s an old familiar saying

We need to start
At the beginning
We are a Human
And a Being

Find their meaning and
We will find the Enemy

It cannot be the Being
Because its’ meaning
Stands for
Spirituality
Immortality
Morality

It must be the Human
The Enemy

Because its’ meaning
Stands for
Physicality
Mortality

Materialism
Egotism
Greed
And all the self
Destructive Craziness
Including putting itself
In charge of our lives

So now that
We have found
Our own worst enemy
How do we defeat it?

Simple

By listening
To the Be-In-G(od)
Who we really ARE
God gave us freedom
Choose!
The Human or the Being!
To be in Charge
Of our Life!
