tigers in a cage

 

Tigers in a cage

Wild creatures tamed into submission

Fierceness in remission

Taught to fear

And act like Rover

The circus act done and over

Restless heart stirring

Rage beneath burning

Tigers in a cage

Either pouncing on all that comes near 

or crouching low in pain

Cages broken open long ago

The true master to retrain

To release into holy wild

The brave bold child

Coming out of our cages

A power filled, beautiful story

Fierceness in all its glory

  

healing relationships be like

Quilled armor ensues

A life time of wounds

Soft underbelly protected

The fortress defended

This job of staying close

Feeling like Prickles and pokes

Two porcupines engaged

Tiptoing around in a cage

For Healing and growth

Try a new approach

Daily on the journey

Offering grace and mercy

Bestowing Ribbons and flowers

Not to tear down but empower

Binary Quandary

 Binary Quandary

Broken in two's as if it were a pair of shoes

This notion of either/or

Its just our way of keeping score

The notion of good and evil, shouldn't and should

Shalom so misunderstood

The lenses of duality

Casting  judgement and morality 

lesser and greater the measure . 

Polarity seeping into all cracks and crevices

our rights, our preferences. 

Celestial lens see's broken and in need of repair

  not better or worse or something to despair

Just in need of eternal love and care
