Passion Engine
A never-ending spark that pushes the pistons
that take the mind and soul
into dark mazes, over hurdles, through walls,
jumping over reason and sensibility,
rising with the heat of lust and carnality,
wild pulses of the savage heart
in obedience to the voices in the loin
with desire overpowering abstinence,
passion overpowering reason
with an end result that bypasses all
the steps that lead to the end
with an urge to climb without a ladder,
or a never-ending spark that
pushes the pistons that
take the mind and spirit to the
gratification of accomplishment,
that climbs the ladder of reason,
gluing the mind to the foreseeable end
while riding on the wings
of pure obstinance
like hunger leading all creatures to food,
jumping over fences and jagged cliffs,
running with the certainty of time
and calculating each step taken
as the goal becomes a reality and
not just a dream
as dreamers did when they began their climb,
submitting themselves to the passion engine
that drove them to where they wanted to be.
Praise be to the passion engines.
Praise be to the dreamer
that fires them up.
Praise be to the obstinance
that keeps them going
and praise be to the fire
that never dies.
