brightness

when a strengthless body

sore of fatigue

and a brightness of lightness

in the spirit

are simultaneously present

there is a bridge

to be found

and crossed

for the material

to merge

with the spiritual

and the spiritual

to merge

with the material

rather than

praise is

a description of

what is

rather than

an intention of

how we would like things

to be

when we become able to

describe

what is

rather than

how we would like things

to be

beauty emerges

inevitably

life

trying to behave

chaotically

when one is

systematic

in order to please

a chaotic mind

is going against nature

and going against nature

is going against life

truth

being given to observe

the behaviour

which has been ruling

the mind

while one has been searching to

understand

all life long

is a subtle bliss

a merciful

and compassionate invitation

into truth

way

staying in the darkness

long enough

for light

to pierce the way out

can feel

unbearable

and might be

all

we were ever meant

to do

distance

an unpleasant dream

revealing a nightmare

revealing the distance from

the life being lived

to

the reality perceived

revealing that

somewhere

along the road

the capacity to perceive

was lost

leaving behind

an illusion of understanding

which obstructs

the way

leading to

life

contrite

freedom occurs

where we are given

to answer

our call

whatever

that call

might be

courage is requested

to take the time

discerning

what our call

is made of

wisdom settles

while we live it

with a humble

and contrite heart

delivering

living every moment as

a new beginning

embracing the past

loving the future

delivering the present
