There was experience -
time and
space and place were left
behind
while we were there. Long
grasses
swayed, and wildflowers
sent their
scent into the air. Mistily,
the slightest
rain fell down as if a
morning dew were
melting o'er our skin.
We were together then,
completely.
And nothing else existed,
not for us.
The wider world was busy
spinning
endless industry, while
you and I
flew high and wide, into
the universe.
A moment of experience
in love,
before the wider world
came to
separate us once again.
Then all the rules and
adages of
past propriety, bore down
to reek
a havoc of disruption.
A cell phone
rang - and time came back
again.
Its industry was never
welcome
there. A moment of experience,
so pure and so complete,
and then
the harsh command of interruption...
