There is no attainment.

We dream of absence in a sleep of
shared delusions.

Waking to a false dawn that
holds our distance.

And yet...no day begins with
settled borders.

Shadows flicker from the
edge of broken worlds.

This is our time to
awaken.

A true dawn of no attainment.

Only moments yielding to the constant
flow...of what is always
present.

Thought provoking Eric.

Needed a few re-reads for my brain but very subtle.

It's like that. The second you become aware of "it", "it" disappears.

smiling at you for this one

(and very appreciative of your talent and kindness)

Your poetry, dear Eric, contributes to our awakening.

We are immersed in the flow of what is and move constantly towards greater awareness.

Beautiful!

I love you.
