Letting Silence Design

I wanted to cease to think myself a mirror.

A mirror imagines it is separate the world around it:

Tries to take the place of the world it reflects.

This illusion brings a tension to ones thought

That attempts to encase ones mind in a shroud
but reality always seeps through the cracks

Threatening to break away the shell.

This is what happens, as the tension increases

Until you let it all go…

Slowly.

Fractalizing.

World fractalizes

As the tension slips away

Until consciousness no longer provides identity

-built on memories and the illusion of its future-

But finds itself as what the world imparts

-the pattern which consciousness now finds:

The atom repeats the pattern of the molecule,

Repeats the pattern of the cells,

Repeats the pattern of the leaf,

Repeats the pattern of the branch,

Repeats the pattern of the tree,

Repeats the pattern of the Earth,

Repeats the pattern of the mind.

Letting the moment design mind’s silence,

Sending its attention towards the ordered world:

Destined now to assume its rightful place.

Feelspeak

And some days I even think I could understand such things...
Feelspeak
Some days poetry flows from the tounge:
A feeling that rushes over me.
Lips appointed to speak the sentiment
Of thoughts that touch their every second.

Some days my words dissolve into the voices of the crowd:
Superfluous thoughts
That drift towards their disappearance
Like tears that meld with the rain.

Some days I fight for words I cannot say.
Like a wintered city wrapped in silence,
Yearning for its morning life,
Stands empty in our sleep.

Some days I translate the silent langugage
Given by the future as it slips into the past
And leaves a trace in the words I speak
That barely points at what I feel.
