THE PATH

In what way can bright consciousness evolve
In us who seem possessed of it most highly,
So that, before too late, we’ll learn to solve
Those problems caused by living less than wisely?

That lesser consciousness possessing us,
Though loftier than other species own,
Acts often like a dreadful incubus
Subverting us. How may it be outgrown?

How may we tune to higher frequencies
Receiving signals from a saner source
Healing in us our moral maladies
Aligning us along a wholesome course?

The way we need to go so Spirit grows,
Still, mindful meditation may disclose.
