'Spaciness'

9/2/09

That I'm allowing myself

to float in Mystery

letting the unknown be

without my usual antics

is a big measure

in how I'm shifting

utilizing a feminine holding

even though strangely uncomfortable,

I get it's worth

though criticism threatens it,

this form of peace

and trust in process

feeding my 'poet philosopher'

who is witnessing all

feeling the ego dying,

each little gasping breath

leaving only my presence

asking what's really real

finding nothing to grasp

while love bubbles up

for each temporary moment,

the thrill of diversity,

of miracle, and 'projection',

certainly the ultimate illusion

which takes courageous intent

when facing odd truth,

'spaciness' is life's essence.
