utility

being useful

is relative

according to the mind

and the state of mind

beholding the utility

of the situation

wrestling

leaning into confidence

after a life of

suspicion

takes more courage

than what seems

humanly possible

while wrestling with

the righteousness of faith

greed

being silent enough to perceive

the purely personal needs

might reduce

even when just a little

the greed

leaving space for the experience of

peace

awe

perceiving the flame

of light eternal

even if

only at distance

is just as powerful

as it is tender

awakening awe

in the receptor

combing

combing old patterns

gently undoing

the tightened suffering

of encrusted emotions

while the mist dissolve

to let sunshine in

barrage

leaving behind a realm

of judgement and justification

can feel like

an explosion

in the back of the mind

the break of a barrage

finally allowing

what was always meant

to flow

heavy

while waking

in the darkest of dark

facing a reality

too heavy to bear

it might be time

to let go

of the conviction one has been trying

so hard

to sustain
