a poem on mastery

by kali ren

if my warrior is too much for you, then your solar plexus is weak
if i am too sexy for you, then your sacral chakra is thin
if i am too negative for you, then you aren't grounded enough
if i am too real for you, then your heart is failing
if i am too loud, then you don't know how to speak your truth
if i am too insightful, then your eye will have to burn
if i am too royal, it because you aren't wearing your crown

i am only the cat today, because you decided you wouldn't follow

if i am too bright for you, it is because you would rather be dumb than learn

if i am too dark, it is because you haven't learned how to deal with your shadow

if i am too spiritual for you, it is because you are vapid and meaningless

if i am not spiritual enough, it is because you don't even have one foot in the real world

if i am too vane, it is because you are self-absorbed

if i work too much, it is because you are lazy

if i am too lazy, it is because you haven't learned how to relax

and if i am too cruel, it is because you let me continue to be neglected and abused

if i am too merciful, it is because you wanted power, and i wrongly gave it to you

if i am too irresponsible, it is because you don't follow your heart

if i am too insane, it is because you are still in a karmic prison

if i am too far away, it is because you haven't learned how to come

if i am not beautiful enough, it is because you are ugly inside

if i am too poor, it is because you are greedy and selfish, and don't understand what real wealth is

and if i am too idealist, it is because you have no idea who god is

if i am too weak, it is because you aren't here to make me strong

if i am too much, it is because you are not enough

and if you don't think i have enough followers, it is because you still are one


...

but if you think i am not artsy enough, then i know, you can never be too artsy
