Father’s
day 2015 and self-destruction – by P.K.Odendaal – June 2015.
For Father’s day 2015
Go ask the rolling river (a living thing)
Why it flows in
ceaseless motion (from where
it originated in the mountain)
To the all-absorbing
ocean, (its grave)
Finding there the
final goal. (its death)
It will say, I’m driven
onward
By a force beyond control. (gravity)
From The
Elixir of Love by Donizetti
The cause
of rejection in ourselves is mainly from a mistaken identity. We have not
identified or found ourselves or our place in this world, or we have not
fashioned our identity at youth to someone we admire and respect, mainly for
not having such a person on our radar, and the effects of this is devastating
in our lives.
