MINDSOUP FOR THE SOUL


Giving my mind away is easy, it's a soup kitchen, and now it serves the grass, beneath it, the source, meet yours today and enjoy... (There is a rumble in that one, Scribbler. Better rethink that last bit about grass.) Actual grass from the ground that is cultivated in our yards, if you love your yard, show it, if you love all, show it, if you love being humbly righteous, you've arrived just in time to have a conversation, we've been needing to have a pow wow for a very long time... Shall we?

(Look, Mommy! It's Heavenly!)

It is that, my child, it is that. Had I but been the one to instruct her steps, might have all turned out a bit differently, had I paid attention... I was not indifferent, I was reactionary, I was going backwards, lest we forget. Thank God that I even arrived here!

(Yep.)

I Love you.

sdrawkcaB nruT (Turn Backwards)

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

Per Plex Ed

            PER+PLEX-ED When you haven’t heard the truth in so long, when you do, it rings a most familiar s ong. That’s the human song, the truth rolling out exactly when it should.      (If a truth is told and nobody is around to hear it, does it make a sound only to the one that spoke it?)    Yes, but our ears aren’t strong enough to hear it.     [a perplexed silence] © 2017 Mark Richard Prime
