each moment

more vivid than the last


brightness and darkness

each have a gleaming edge


...and oh shit...here comes

someone who will pull me back


into the world....

the universe vibrates

under my feet

around my hands

within my mind


no wonder

people are careful

around me

I've must have become impossible


to be with lately

everyone

wants to save me


from what

for what


they'll never find

a cure for what I've got...


longing for the enlightenment

that shall release me


from longing...

that's for me to do alone....

the bird did not answer

a call from its kind


no need to coo and moan

little mourning dove


it now flies in higher

space awaiting its mate


lifting from where ruffled

crushed feathers lay on the ground


and from where you too shall fly

some day....

WHAT IS GIVEN

what is given

is never taken away


it is lost only

by lack of appreciation
