Unforgiveness

What is considered unforgiveness for the person who is wronged?

It can seem unforgivable when the self-hatred is strong,

Perceived prison made of fluid, electric impulse, and pink flesh,

Unloving thought forms cause distress and unrest,

Sharp pangs of grief in one's breast,

Tell me, how long will you delude yourself into thinking you're less?

Who is less? Who is more?

What a chore it is to perpetuate hierarchy's confinements, truly a bore,

Yet when that is what one knows, "Well, them's the rules, that's just how it goes,"

Excuses that promote division, the effect of disconnection inside,

Victims of victims, one can say,

Until you meet one who is brave,

Brave enough to say, "I release such limitations,"

"I know we are united despite the sayings of man-made nations, religions, and occupations,"

"And I find elation in the contrast that evokes inspiration,"

And that is where one finds their authentic power, in the dark hour,

Night of Ego's death; fear and insecurities' last breath,

Walls of addictions, prejudice, victimhood, and shame fall apart, going under,

Towers of arrogance and self-inflicted hatred and violence torn asunder; cries as their thunder,

False beliefs and limitations destroyed, changes abound; the energy of Tarot's Tower

Leaving an open space for the possibility of wonder,

Wonderment... of the concept of... forgiveness,

Because it's not for them, but rather for you,

So that your spirit be soothed,

Free from the memory of unloving projections,

I think... forgiveness is a form of Divine protection.
