Echo and Spirit


The echo of spirit is, I believe, something we should listen to, it is not the same thing as an intellectual echo...

The echoes found in the spiritual lesson is not a chamber, it's more a reverberation of reflection, it's the self and spirit having a silent "conversation" within us, so to speak.

T speaks to us inwardly, yet does not come simply come from our "thinking", but from an unknown place, a voice echoing deep from within the forest, we follow its plea until we get near enough to it to begin to make out what it is saying and what it is. Often I fail to locate it, or I get tired of the search, or, and this is rare and more of an intrigue than a hinderance, but I sometimes find that I am wary of the answer that I am sensing within it. These particularly mysterious echoes are the ones that I find myself gravitating toward rather naturally and with a bit too much zeal.

It is the spiritual echo that I seek regularly, often finding the answer to be a dream that I recognize, like an old familiar song that's finally unfolding again within Me.

Once experienced and traced, it becomes easier to follow these spiritual echoes within to a place that seems to have no ego, only answers that always seem to surprise me.

Peace

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

Waiting for It

Why do they stay there, between war and peace? Sky’s tapestry doles out guns, bombs and rocks while flesh and bone swim away from the ache yet live on as the food for the murder of peace. Why do we hide from the truth as if it were an ogre while death makes a home inside their living and war dispatches a raven to their door, smirking with the teeth of empire? Why do we wait, stooped for another wink? The sky’s drapery has tossed down ample clues, peace is breathing in harmony with war. (Road-maps are useless to blind leaders.) Why do they hold there, hunched in the gloom? Hatred’s bird cackling with bereavement needs end. Are we not rightly dishonored when we fill its trough with blood? © 2007 mrp/thepoetryman
