First Mother Of Our Soul

First Mother Of Our Soul

Why am I me and no one else alive, 
trapped in the fragile nutshell of my head, 
entangled in strange memories of my mind 
from striving to survive till I am dead? 
Every human alive on Planet Earth 
has been born from First Mother of our soul. 

All humans of the world alive with hope 
share universal frame of reference 
that underlies state of religious tales 
with common themes of heroic success. 
Though I sometimes feel alone in my head 
I feel connected to each soul on Earth. 

I feel prime soul of Ishtar in my heart 
when she gathered us all in temple hall 
to nurture our spirits with feast of faith 
then sang creation of the universe. 
Her vision of how our world operates 
still programs how I perceive our life on Earth. 

Bright goddess who created stars of truth 
stands before congregation of the lost 
and tells us how our world was born from fire, 
then gives advice on how to live life well. 
Our souls are fragments of her primal soul 
as shards of her one puzzle mirror mind. 

Since Death will dissolve me in the end 
and scatter atoms of my body far 
as bright unconscious sparkles of starlight, 
I sing the conscious vision of my mind. 
For I am me alone in all the world, 
one temporary flame of conscious faith. 

I wonder why, out of eight billion souls 
alive this hour on globe of rain and dirt, 
I am conscious only of my own self, 
immortal mind in mortal shell of flesh. 
When Ishtar wakes in visions of my heart 
I play my role in fortune of my fate. 

Since each new choice I make defines my fate, 
I hesitate at crossroads of each change 
to analyze effects of active cause 
because I want to create, not destroy. 
I compose scripture that maps my life goal 
to create conscious souls before I die. 

Since no traveler has ever returned 
from the undiscovered country of death, 
I have no dread of what comes after life 
for I will cease to exist for all time. 
With courage I throw burdens to the wind 
to work great enterprises till I die.

  2. "The author reflects on the profound connection between individuals and a shared origin, termed "First Mother of our soul," representing a universal source from which all human consciousness emerges. Through a poetic exploration of identity and existence, the author grapples with the themes of isolation and interconnectedness, emphasizing the role of a divine figure, Ishtar, as a nurturing presence and teacher guiding humanity. The work contemplates the nature of life and death, as well as the importance of creating meaning and legacy amidst the transient nature of existence. The final lines highlight the author's commitment to living purposefully and courageously, without fear of the unknown beyond death."
