Frantz Fanon posed a question, am I all I say I am, am I all I ought to be
which is cycled through black conscious communities and their spiritual circles upon their path for enlightenment re-identification and liberation, as a creed of sorts that asks those two vital questions and demands indiscriminate honesty in order to locate oneself and reorient if their way has been lost or veered from
if what is believed in, is because what can’t be believed in…then it’s no real belief, and just as powerless as the potential, and latent state of believing, which is, “belief”
if what is created is because what can’t be created, it is no creation, it is just craftiness
if what is done is because what can’t be done, then it is not transcendence, no matter how it appears and what is said
the reason and the energy are not separate and therefore if they differ or split, then the initial cause is disrupted and only filled in with the illusion of that which was sought
the mind will make room for and allow this perpetual deceit with its house full of rationalizations
transcendence is not just a function which goes beyond, it is an essence, a constant unfolding…
as well as an energy, knowing, and belief which propels the transcendence
otherwise transcendence is just a title, to which titles and labels I have no interest for nor in…
I do not desire the names of things more than the experience of them, the experience will reveal their names
as WayOfLife, I am my own and need not capitulate to that of other’s need for a converted means of identification and understanding that only dilutes what was once potent and pure yet still has the appearing luster of grand titles
WayOfLife is transcendence, it doesn’t need the appearance nor affirming title/label of which, it is the title and label
it embodies the name and answers the calling unflinchingly
I am what I do
but I am more than yet I have done
so I do not allow the moments that they define
to be the moments I define
in my transcendence, I redefine
because transcendence is as deep as roots
and what surfaces therein lies the proof
so I stay wary of wayoflife-look-alikes
perception is illusive
and truth, allusive
