apotheosis poem 1

stuck were i grew up

wanting to grow up and go to college

feeling like siddhartha wanting to become a shamana

the hero’s time will come when

he/she passes the threshold

and enters a new world

the father archetype

the all knowing father

one who probably went through

a journey just like the hero

his job is to give aid, knowledge, and experience

where the hero has none

the father plays a key role in

guiding the hero through

the road of trials on his journey

failure

the hero’s journey starts off good

then he/she is faces with several challanges

not prepared the hero panics

on the road of trials the hero does not move forward

until the hero can over come

he/she must deal with failure

success

on the road of trials

the hero faces many challanges

depending on the character

it may be strength

it may be endurance

it may be intelligence

that leads the hero

to success on his journey

what is an archetype?

an archetype is what a character is defined by

these characters can range from

the innocent, orphan, warriors, caregiver, seeker

lover, destroyer, creator, ruler, magician, sage, or fool

each one with a different goal, fear, problem, response, and gift

archetypes are all around us and can be spotted in everyday people

defining us and the characters we play in everyday life

comfort poem

to be without it worries me

so i guess having it by me gives me comfort

some may feel the same way

although they may not admit it

when i lose/misplace it

or when the battery is suddenly dead

to be without my precious cellphone

the refusal (poem)

 

faced with a poential journey

the hero refuses it

feeling pushed into something he/she doesn’t want

maybe they will accept it later

maybe they will further run from this journey

avoiding the consequences

until it is safe to return

the call (poem)

a hero’s journey begins  …

this is the first step

it’s a big one that requires a lot of thought

the hero may be hesitant at first

but eventually he/she will make the right decision

to pass the threshold

and accept the call

paradise

it has been a long journey

and i envision the end

the only thing that gives me fuel

is the dream of reaching my goal

the path behind me was dark and dreary

but now i see paradise

it was worth the journey

the time

the hardships

the challanges

to see paradise

fighting

journeys are full of challenges

that we must fight through

fighting evil

fighting villans

fighting hardships

fighting each individual challange

fighting to the very end

to complete a successful journey
