Thinking is no more than just
a misty dream
that crashes hard against
reality; altering
the deeper feelings only
love can bring; just
like a wave that seeks continuance
within a
constant state of re-arrival;
beating at the cliffs
until the substance of their
form is torn into
mere particles.
Imagining and imaging – oh,
sweet the dreams
we wish to make come true;
yet still, no matter
how we reach into the skies,
it always comes
back to these forms of flesh
that are much more
than just a dwelling we inhabit.
Deep, the feelings
that become a mere perception
of all revelation
of those senses that lie
so divided within us.
How quickly, we forget the
touch of all reality; as
once again emotion rises
to proclaim its right in
our existence. So quickly
then, we seek no more
than just release from all
we feel. Shall we pop
another pill? Well, only
if it is prescribed, you see;
for then the figure-heads
of our society are paid
for that which ever was our
right of birth. Shall
we then smoke another planted
seed that brings
no more than just unconcsious
sleep and the
unknowingness and unreality
of an hallucination?
The midnight hour is here
again. The clock is
ticking, even now, within
those dreams we dream.
For we have been induced
and then obsessed
within an ordering that seeks
no more than our
submission to the fall of
all that is most individual
in us. Lying in potential,
ever seeking for the will
of mind - to still the endless,
aching entering of
other minds and more, that
basic of the realms
of all we truly feel as real;
while those other wills
still seek no more than just
to still the power of
this inward revolution of
our individuality that
comes to be the universal
of eternity of life in form,
and so needs expression in
a striking outward flow
of words, revealing the understanding
of all that we
so truly need to just go
on.
This voice, oh inner ecstasy!
This only tone that
rings so true! Herein lie
all the answers we have
sought. Brought first within
a dream that wakes
us shockingly from deepest
sleep, compelling us
beyond all want or will to
make its voice reality.
Truly, do we rise and fall
within its beauty and
its truth. Reaching so much
deeper than the words
that still too often speak
through someone that we
think as other than ourselves
alone.
Echoing, these questions that
we ask ourselves
and every other – of the
where and how and when;
melting now, as all complexity
of mind must reach
yet further still, to all
that lies beyond division.
For the only question ever
and yet still
that needs an answer – is
just "Why?"
And herein lies the meaning
of all life -
because we love...
