the ecstasy of what is

March 7, 2009

the ecstasy that is

isn’t push nor pull

isn’t a double-sided debate

nor war in which to struggle;

the ecstasy that is

is much sim

pler just taste

the blessing of this

here now ever

mistake reality for dream?

dream for reality

let the real be itself

shed armor of separate

ever think of what’s underneath

what’s hidden beneath

the seam

the thoughts afraid to be

verbalized

placed permanently on the out

side of reason

the taste and the season

of what arrives

belongs only to itself

knows only its own

desire and the
instant

need only

be born
