Ey3 am the spirit of the Black Aquarians.
M’Ey3 children are Metal, Fire, Earth, Water, and Air.
Ey3 am center of all.
From atom to the eve of creations.
To the birth of all that is life and death.
Ey3 Am.
3WE are.
One.

Two share this plain of existence.
One, simple filled with awe and wonder.
Joyfully bliss in the moments that it inherits.
The second, intellectual, filled with knowledge and expectation.
Discontent in its present. It’s eye always on the horizon of tomorrow.
The simple is viewed as a fool by the intellectual.
The intellectual is ambitious and tries to reap benefit off the back of the simple.
The fools grows into its stride of steps as it lives life.
The ambitious grows into its death as it waits for tomorrow.
The fool, unbeknownst to the intellectual, has the power to
become anything it discovers and swishes to explore in study.
The ambitious, set in its way, becomes expert or master in its Craft.
Only to peak, then slowly degrade.
Joyful bliss.
Blinding ambition.
Two share this plain. | MS
