This moment is a lot easier than a lifetime of learning,
eternity can be found therein;
but only for the moment,
a passing phenomenon,
like its counterpart, the experience of sin;
alone with a pleasure without integration,
alone either without or within;
a subject or an object,
a lover or a beloved,
neither one in the end which will win.
Weather!
Weather is a wonder, wherever you are!
It gives the observer a glimpse,
a glimpse of what a moment with Eternity is like:
Nothing; nothing in the face of the life all around.
Standing outside! Ecstatic!
Ecstasy coming in circles, reversals, impacts and spurts;
all out of any one’s control.
My Lord, we are talking a heavenly vision here,
an experience nigh unto the soul;
a moment alone with the power of the Creator;
not yet by anyone from this angle told:
my own little divine experiment
to find heaven and hell so bold,
so as to touch my life so closely,
in this weather wonder to behold.

Oh, keep the music coming,
the rhythm and the rhyme;
the syncopated bellissima
between the silence that is mine.
The past that somehow binds the moments,
The present which I forever find,
The passing phen.om.en.o.logical,
Around which we all are entwined.

Don’t you just hate it when you can’t find your solitude?
When drastic measures are needed to be raised;
When you find yourself trapped in some perfunctory ritual;
Or running for shelter in a purple haze.
My Lord, where are those times of childhood freedom?
My G-od, where are those happy days?
When everyone knew what was important to the other person
And did not care because they knew everyone plays.
Now the play-ers are separated from the pray-ers
And the left is not part of the right;
And the colors are not satisfied being wonderfully radiant
Because they simply are not black or white.
Yes, we only find ourselves alone now
In the heat of the battle
As we raise our backs and
As we bicker and fight.

IF
Solitude
Becomes
YOU,
In time;
Then, you must cling
To that time
ALONE,
While reaching
OUTSIDE of time
To the uncertainty of
OTHER
In prayer.

Returning to the Eternal,
Giving up this mortal sense,
^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^^
Finding out the way things truly are
In the metaphysical present tense:
^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^
No longer in the middle;
No longer straddling the fence;
^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^
No longer stranger to either or both sides;
Part of the whole wide world immense.
^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^
Being now with holy abandon;
The spirit by the flesh incensed
^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^/\^^\/\/^^
The proper order of the light;
To this moment,
From eternity,
Commenced.

The night has come
once more to touch and
to remind in us that
the darkness will
always visit regularly,
to stay a course,
sometimes too long but
never where the light belongs:
in the song within,
simply waiting
to play again.
