The Reflection In My Chalice


Salivating from the reflection in my chalice
I see the silhouette of a king in his palace.
Within this cup, endless potential
I am talking kingdoms here, abundance pours torrential
Vengance is, at far distance
Teacher nearby, insisting diligence
Creativity flows, pouring from the brow
Onlookers and admirers, question the how.
This king is not the master, of his gifts and talents
However, his artistry requires - precision and balance
I want to learn from him, bear the fruits of committed meditation
I observe him carefully, begging emulation 
or does he mimic me, reflection from above
paradoxical climbing, tree of life thereof
Marriage in mind, Mastery of intuition
knowledge and reason, an alchemical magician
Floating effortlessly, illusion to you
Riding life's tides
If only we knew.
