extending

and from that area of peace

to be found within

mercy extends endlessly

towards the world

areas

when every area

seems painful to approach

it might seem impossible

to find

peace

yet somewhere

in the depths of every being

an area of peace is to be found

when being approached

with compassion and love

debilitating

lack of faith is

a much more debilitating condition

that it is

invisible

intangible

and omnipresent

lack of faith is

all the more

an ongoing invitation to

believe

scorn

remaining in

the light

through indifference

and scorn

is an eternal task

while believing

one has not deserved any better

than indifference

and scorn

is temporary

conjugation

breaking the rules

by taking the laws

into our own hands

cannot be

conjugated

though

forgiven

dear

holding dear

the moment

honouring

the present

leaning into light

somewhat

somewhat lost

in the aftermath of the wind

as the morning sun

is colouring the naked world

in pink

somewhat frail

with the wish to assimilate

every new aspect

of the tale

stumble

discovering the missing part

which had been

thoroughly mystified

and systematically ignored

in order to keep

the coherence of

an inconsistent tale

finding the missing part

stumbling upon it

while the search had been suspended

as the wish to understand was replaced

by a turn

towards mercy

daunting

approaching the essence

under storm and rain

after generations of

exile

can only be

daunting

even repulsing

until the mind begins to grasp

that mercy is to be found

in the core

of the matter
