when aloneness
has become
the fundamental condition
it can be a challenge to believe
anything else
to be possible
which would not mean
anything else is
impossible
tension
when deep peace
is settling
simultaneously with
trembling agitation
it leaves a span of tension
inside the body
a subtle power which can either serve
to destroy
or to heal
blurring
being systematically
humiliated
not flagrantly
rather in subtle ways
invisible to everyone
even the one concerned
veils the clarity of the mind
with a screen of confusion
inhibiting the shine of the soul
meant to illuminate
the world
diminishing the intensity
of its light
hence the power
of its mercy
blurring the faculty
of discernment
into inappropriate
conclusions
as the world is seen
through the very same screen
of humiliation
demands
when the expression of
our individual needs
being the physical side of
our individual talents
are being disregarded as
unreasonable demands
a subtle connection is being
disrupted
and the approach to our essence
little by little
lost
silencing
being able to express
the wisdom
coming from inside
after a life of
silencing
sounds just as simple
as it is not
disregard
disregarding the call for rest
when rest is required
is depriving ourselves of
freedom
banal
to rest
while rest is required
sounds banal
which does not mean
it cannot be
anything but obvious
accessibility
living in a reality
which does not seem to be
accessible to anyone else
can be lived
as either a curse
or
a blessing
once the condition of
living in a reality
which does not seem to be
accessible to anyone else
is accepted
as the outset
unkind
the fear of being condemned as
irresponsible
or unkind
might be
an underlying motivation
for many behaviours
without even the shadow of virtue
written into it
having nothing to do
with neither responsibility
nor kindness
suddenly
when life is too painful
and make sense
no more
a different kind of sense
emerge
to numb the pain
and everything seems suddenly
out of reach
