Sense of Will

Sense of Will

Apr 24, 2021

The loquat tree--
thin branches stuck and still. 
No will, 
no will in the shapely green leaves.
No will, but it stared--
stared into nothing, 
with its small, sour fruit.
It stared,
stared at everything.
But waited for anything,
and waited for everything--
for the wind to push it,
to move in any direction. 

But what was will, 
when you had 
no senses to follow.

The bees
they buzzed, and frantically foraged--
for anything, and everything.
For the perfect pollen
no...any pollen.
Only following
their will. 

But what was will, 
when you only had
your senses to follow.

The dog? He stayed still--
Still, like the tree
but followed his master. 
He paid no mind, 
but the dog--
he waited...
waited for orders,
that the human could bark. 

But what was will, 
when you only had
your senses to follow.

The man, yes...
the man--
they were different!
Or so they said,
trotting around
stomping their feet
shouting their will.
Free Will!
They said they knew so well, 
that they had free will. 

But what was will, 
when you only had 
your senses to follow. 

That's the thing, 
it wasn't just their senses. 
They followed words,
words of their savior,
words endlessly repeated, 
the words of anyone, and everything. 
They followed, and
never stopped, just
one moment...
to think, for their 
Own. 
So they followed their senses, 
and they followed their masters.

There once was a girl, a poet-
who showed it.
She wrote many beautiful stories,
finding nothing but glory.
But she did not know,
where to leave her poems dat flow.
Til' she found flight,
on that one tapas website.

Haha sorry, these are just some random poems I wrote. Hope you enjoy!
