Nelson N Alers 2028

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

I wish neither to possess, Nor to be possessed. I no longer covet paradise, More important, I no longer fear hell. The medicine for my suffering I had within me from the very beginning, But I did not take it. My ailment came from within myself, But I did not observe it until this moment. Now I see that I will never find the light, Unless, like the candle, I am my own fuel, Consuming myself.
