ALL

in flesh or in spirit


whittling down

the load of karma


in the Eternal Now

is done in pure service


to others...

I'd forgotten that in this skin


and now will probably start

all over again


in genuine contrition

to repent and amend


atone for all the foolishness

that led me from my path


sorrow and remorse

unless as ice in the sun


and replaced by the souls I've loved

coming to help me across...


it's true...all true...

and the pain fades to wistfulness


as the shadow world of earthly reality

is subsumed into its pure idea...


and we are here...all here...

we are never anywhere else...


in flesh or in spirit we are here...
