wake up to yourself

wake up
to yourself -
let the mask
you mistook for skin
crack up, drop
and dissolve
into that burning hole
in the middle
of your chest

a hole that spews fire,
torching the flesh,
planting seeds
of emptiness,
or divinity,
so you can seduce
empty hearts,
making them ache
for more,

burning them
like dead logs
to fuel yourself,
to be the light
that sets them free,
only to become
your slave,
a spark, a flame,
but never the roaring fire
that they are and can be

stop.
wake up to the dream.
wake up to yourself.
wake up to the wounds
you create and feed.
wake up to your own seduction.
be seduced by Life!
