Blessing


I do not remember. I do not know.
I know without knowing, a glancing blow, a ricochet,
an echo of something loving.

I do not recall. I do not know.
I know without a fullness required to summon a memory
of those I knew and even some that I know.
It's a dangerous atmosphere, not the kind of danger that makes us shudder,
but the kind that increases the heart rate,
the breathing, just enough to feel our animal emerge.

I say I only seek the truth and perhaps that's not the way to proceed. Perhaps I am scribing the pathway for Me to follow? I do not know.

I am becoming familiar with this dance, in and out of prayer.

I do know, but it seems, at this juncture, to always be accompanied by not knowing. A blessing or a curse?

Blessing...

I have been witness to the four pillars and see no reason to carry death there. Doesn’t the world know that life moves for more than just the sons of Abraham? O! I see the stunned throats floating by in the dusk to their stiff-limbed sleep as metal rains down over the Jordan’s western prophet, children dying there. I am here, waiting, breathing in the dusk under the shadow of the patriarch, asking, can we again build the shrine inside the soul and leave our flesh to time? © 2008 mrp/thepoetryman

SKYFALL

Skyfall... We continue to play along with an unnatural game that has serious consequences, soon we'll find ourselves enslaved without recourse to the system. (Is that true of local charades?) Yes. (Why can't we free ourselves from the system?) The madness of money. (It's not money, it's people, right?) It's both, money and us in tandem, thus assuring money's might and our adherance to its loudness. (Madness...) Indeed. © 2017 Mark Richard Prime

THE ROCK HOLDS

The rock holds the soil in and from the soil springs the tree, the green of LIFE rolling from the blue, rising to the occasion of itself. . “Be!”, the (H)eartH declares, “Be what you are!” . (We thought we were!) . (We think we are!) . “You are, but not freely, therefore, only a thought, and a thought without much thinking, as if you were scared into it.”, the (H)eartH added. .
