Enveloped by ALL, within the great Nothing Fearless and untouched by Time Eternal and thoughtless...formless and free FLESH had not yoked the Mind All that I knew was...'twas nothing to know I AM ...without quest or goal Nothing was needed....nothing was sought What can one add to the whole? Unaware that there was darkness For I had not yet learned of light Ego and Brain had not hooked their chains Mind had not dreamed Wrong and Right Deep within consciousness , a faint light appeared Drawing me into its glow Awareness of SOUND and shades of grey Creating a ...NEED....to KNOW At first , this new realm was a nuisance I was pulled from my peace...with resentment I loathed the shadows and the questions they spawned Depriving me of my contentment To and fro...my awareness would go Each time...the light drew me nearer Curiosity grew...but still my Mind knew that the realm of No Thought was dearer To and fro....the transition was slow Shadows began to take form. Now...Nothing was only reached through sleep. The World of Light was the norm One of the shadows crossed over my face This...I would learn...was my hand One of the shadows offered me...TASTE A pleasure I soon would demand I was now FLESH and TIME took me in My previous world was a dream Shadows and Sounds anchored me down To the sounds...I added my screams The shadow of Taste...possessed a soothing voice Feelings of comfort and love...like no other Its presence would cause my heart to rejoice I learned that its source was ...my Mother And so it began....and so it will end All must now be unlearned As a Man....I am drawn....toward LIGHT once again To the Realm of No Thought....I return. |
