I'm a fool
I know I am--
a hero's journey
without plan
and every time I take a step,
I know I trek a path unchecked--

But still there is resounding hum
mantra of this thing undone
Aleph--Bayet-
Life and Death
continuum
shallow-depth
darkness--light,
exhale, inhale,
a glimpse in dark
of fleshly pale
the madness of a clock in tick-
suspicion--there must be a trick--
I must not be the only one
undone by time's cruel pendulum.

May all my busy-ness of mind
just like the clock, become unwind
the circle of two hands in spill-
within the center--time stands still.
In the center, find the door.
In nothingness you'll find more.

To find the treasure hid by hell,
you must first trek path of self.
As hands of clock encircling,
you'll find yourself encompassing--
be wary of your hands want more...
Within the center?
Open door.

I'm so glad you reposted this, Karen.  I don't recall
seeing it the first time around, but I love it now.

You are lovely...ya know that?

Love you...

(big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, I think it is sensible to say we are all fools, but knowing He has a divine plan for each and every one of us, then there is no shame in feeling this way, and when we tread softly on our own path with that faith in mind, then I don't think we could be any wiser, even when we feel like a fool still! (sigh) This is beautiful, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Karen, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

K?

I must not be the only one
undone by time's cruel pendulum.

closer to that door . . .
you have led me thus far
and in this, you give me strength
to use the key
