Zywa The blessing of immaturity

What has to do with God
is complicated, the mind
wants logic and does
not give up easily

searching for every beginning
reasoning
from a perfect creation
to the known world

the people, their inclinations
self-indulgence, curiosity
impatience and stupidity -
their immaturity

which gave them the opportunity
to become reasonable
to become adults
and to experience life

as it is

Is being an adult: following
your own path in order to
meet each other's needs?
    Not hiding under someone
    else's skirt like a child

Is being an adult: seeing
what needs to be done and
doing something about it yourself?
    Not leaving the burdens and
    suffering of life with others

Is being an adult: being amazed
when nudity does not disarm
and enable tenderness?
    A body, a human being, eyes
    pleading - afraid or receptive

Zywa Puberty

I learn all sorts of things
without any idea
what I will ever do with them
and so it will continue

To realise that
that I will continue to learn
and must continue to learn
is the beginning

of adultness
Learning to live
for fellow human beings, dedicating
myself to what I am good at

however fleetingly that may be
however fragile everything is
our world, our minds
our bodies and feelings

Lilith
is the first adult human
Lilith
I too am an adult

I am aware of myself :
I know that I am mortal
I know I can live thanks to others
I know I can live thanks to the Earth
