It is coming strong now
the pulse of the One
spreads through the many
an undeniable
inevitability….
which sends ripples
glimmers of itself
we turn and find
everything has changed.
I walked over to my neighbor
I shared videos of Terrence
after he spoke of Ayahuasca
and sacred dreams…
and learned
in total serendipity
that he had lived his whole life
awakened
living next to me
silent, alone,
monkish
much like me
until we sat in waning light
for hours
speaking about the cosmic
and the One
and how it speaks to us
and how we speak with it
this great mystery
that surrounds us all…
If we were small enough
would our air seem this thin if it was blood
and we were subatomic?
Are we living in the body of something amazingly huge?
Is it better to know
or to just ask the question?
Questions are where it is at
this much is true
and known
even though the dead dry husks
of knowledge unfold themselves
perfunctory….
it seems the buzz is in finding
the next new petal.
I suppose that is what makes us the same; always on to the next new thing
cosmic impatience
seekers are like this
and we think its all just fine
as the sky spins stars into view and out
again
we meet like this
in different times
and places
we both know this is so…
but how do you say what is obvious
and make it seem to be anything more than out of step with
space and time?
He is moving
I am moving away from this place
and this sudden realization comes
in the waning night
the billiards caroming off one another
as we wonder about what comes next in the world
of awakenings.
Anything we want, everything we hope for.
It all comes like this
where every one I am around is of the same
sometimes secretly
for that moment when
the great reveal comes
so I can sink my teeth into the awe and wonder
that this world offers
and that I love so.
“Anything is possible.”
