beautiful words (24 Dec 2007)

26 Feb

I have a limited view
so close my eyes
and am surprised

I feel this subtle wisdom
as vibrations
in all the empty spaces

words are rolling over me
I am pinned to the wall
of a life craft in choppy seas

in every pause for breath
I experience a lull
of movement

no matter
how honest or poetic or
pure the words

no matter who they fall from
I am the man gasping
for salvation, outstretched arms

ashen face. As if there is hope
just beyond my reach
I long to be still

I long for silence
to be the Unmoving
  or to move with Everything

I recognise these beautiful words

and can not touch them
