on the way to next world

Once the shade is drawn a touch
and strands of mellowed light once expected
filter through the chambers
as you speak of
the pleasure of a moment's rest,
moment's notice
enveloped  first in mist
interfering with a confused state,
when challenged for peace of mind
only have thoughts of conflict
before any clearing
of any vapoured sky.

When that time comes
they all pass on
yet have not yet witnessed
a reason for going so soon
let alone being in the nothingness
tucked within the draped folds
of a mind's window.

Who interferes with the process
of light and shadow on walled supports
fallen then to floors and passages
in the nowhere places
as one speaks of life eternal
but one senses the temporary
mundane dessert at meal's end.

That challenge, a distraction
to say one exists, glimpses
at the burst of life
sound, love and fury
before any mists lift
of any sky
mounted on lids of all a moment's peace
lifts from the captive jar
which contained that spirit
that would otherwise elope
with confused thoughts
and the interfered
have not yet lived,
their lives put on hold
for time's passing.

It is the confused moment
interfering with a  peace of mind
that minds the passing of peace
the twist of weather vane
bore that final gust
of life not yet lived
or shortly lived
in passing.

This, to me is like a sort of Zen art..
Zen and the art of

"nothingness
tucked within the draped folds
of a mind's window"

It requires a bit of meditation to realize what your point is, but once the haze clears, all is revealed.

The title is perfect.
