CHARIOT TEARS

CHARIOT TEARS

.

.


There is a part of us that is responsible, accountable


That weighs, on the scales of common sense and reason


The wisdom of our actions


There is another part of us


That acts on impulse and hidden drives


This part can make an instantaneous decision


Without considering the wisdom, consequences or


Impact on our health


Our impulsive self is more fun in the moment


More exciting and creative


It can be the spark of genius


Or the little sparkler of a Fool


But Impulse is a part of our natures


As much as Reason


We ride in our flesh chariots


Pulled by those two powerful steeds


Impulse and Reason


Struggling to steer our earthly vessels


Across the sky each day


Tugged this way by Impulse


Tugged that way by Reason


While the Compromiser, the driver of the Chariot


Sees which way, which way


We are headed today.
