I have found that openings of time
shine
through closings of the heart
filling the in-betweens with words
       from the soul
words that can only be spoken
       when hearts listen in astral sentences
              poured from knowing lives
       full of the secrets of eternity

we as vessels
drink from the thrice-sacred Spring
       and wait for the hearing to speak
to a part of ourselves that lies beyond
not beyond us or our understanding
       just beyond

beyond where we know the spaces of
time and life
so that we might come to a higher opening
an opening of the mind and the soul
where space joins time and life
       where life joins being

then are we become as new
       not human
              not alien

only alive

*sigh* I miss your work, and I miss this place. This is just beautifully you, and it shouldn't be so far down the page.

Love and stuff my Dearest Sven Pen Friend.

How grave is my condition, for I cannot find the words to say, I need you so.

That is profound and profoundly beautiful.
Thank you, dear Sven.
