memory

saying what is thought

in order to be able

to remember what has been said

rather than saying

what the other wish to hear

in order to

get it the way

we want

while gently losing

memory

of

who we are

unattended

no longer to be

in a state of survival

makes life unfold

overwhelmingly

leading towards decisions

which were left unattended

as they had so far been

out of reach

with and by

finding peace

with

and by

the fact

that

whatever is done

with

and by

good will

is

good enough

swan

a lonely swan

stately announcing

there is a proper place

for every purpose

stupendous

the infinity of mercy

can be overwhelming

to grasp

for a mind

shaped

under shame

not even aware

this is what

had happened

while

receiving mercy

after a life in shame

is simply

stupendous

cowardly

waking up

to quietude

from a place of

profound peace

where kindness is not

considered to be

cowardly

hands

reaching the day

after which

nothing will ever be

the same again

the day where

obedience is placed

in the hands

of the one

who holds it

with mercy

sober

dreams

bringing to the surface

what was

hidden in the mind

a sophisticated blend

of

memories

combined with fear

of what is

to come

to be taken into account

without nourishment

only sober observation

disguising

rather losing dignity

than loosening control

could be the devise

of the dark side

of consciousness

disguising control

in what we consider

good deeds

does not make it less

control

and where control governs

no mercy is

to be found

regularity

regularity

can be the structure

which keeps the mind

afloat

yet there are minds

so structured

regularity might seem

superfluous
