Living on the edge
Am I really as good
As I think I am?
If not
I lose – and so do those
Who rely on
Or are near
Me.
Do I wish to gamble
My and others wellbeing
On the strength of my arrogance, ego, and pride?
If I do,
Can my love be strong enough?
Can I resist the call of old ways?
Can I have
The terrifying cold fire
Of the Goddess’ absolute
Expectation of loving compassion
With no excuses, deceptions, or lies?
