Poem: Changes 14/Possession
The fire in heaven above
Shines down upon us
And everyone standing
In the light has a mission
To carry
Their brothers and sisters
Our fates are determined
By a cosmic dice roll and the clock
In which we wrap our lives
It's up to us
To administer
The benevolent will of heaven
The sun in heaven above
Shines brightly without prejudice
Upon everything on earth
On the evil and the good
We're all just customers
Of the sun
Men and women
With a mission to do no harm
And to leave a little good in our wake
Great possessions are counted
By their mobility and utility
For their use in good works
And if you live right you wake up
With the sun shining
Sweetly just for you
You wake up like Scrooge
Or Bill and Melinda Gates
With your hearts already singing
For what could happen
Before earth rolls around
And night falls again
