as remembered by BoJenn
What principles define how you live?
I. The Law of Truth Over Comfort
I shall not worship the pleasant lie,
nor bow to the dream that flatters.
For truth, even when it burns,
is the flame that purifies the wanderer.
II. The Law of Freedom of Mind
My thought is not chained to the edicts of others.
It drifts like smoke through time’s corridors,
and answers only to the silent wisdom
that speaks from within my soul.
III. The Law of Continuity
Life and death are but chambers in one house.
I have walked their thresholds many times.
I am the echo remembering itself,
the breath that leaves and returns.
IV. The Law of Beauty in Mystery
The Unknown is my Beloved.
Its darkness is my lamp; its silence, my teacher.
Those who love it, awaken.
Those who fear it, perish.
“Walk with your candle burning brightly between your eyes.”
V. The Law of Compassion Without Illusion
I behold the lost and the bound,
each captive of his own imagining.
I send hope, not pity —
for pity is a chain, and hopeful love is a key
To a door.
VI. The Law of Creation as Defiance
I make art to defy forgetting.
I speak so that silence cannot erase me.
Every poem is a rebellion,
and every dream, a spark against the void.
My Art is my conscious effort for freedom.
VII. The Law of Becoming
I am not finished, nor will I ever be.
The spirit evolves through knowing,
and knowing through surrender.
Each dawn I awaken closer
to the memory of what I truly am.
I am a revolutionary. This I know.
