i guess
you must start with a premise
that you
are not good
or to a certain extent
evil
do not worry
there is nothing to be afraid
it is just a
beginning
then you move onward
to the only
possibility that you have no
choice
but only to become
good
or if you have the
guts
become one of those
gods
or demi-god
or you can turn back into
a certain falling
it is pride
that pulls you back
into
that heinous form
rotten gnat
fallen leaf
mud, humus of the earth....
i guess it is just
a matter of belief
or how you look at it
how you feel
for you to become...
