It's been a comfortable place, lately.
I know you don't understand,
because I've been here so long,
the other side of the coin of melancholy.
Aside, I might never have seen.
Still I know there's real hope.
You're there somewhere, I'm sure.
I just hope I can reach you.
If only we could see beyond ourselves.
There was a time when I could.
I tried to hold onto it and
I still want it back ---
I have it again now, still on the edge,
reaching out, no one knows to reach back.
I feel the razor's edge, nothing unusual,
an easy place, after this long.
What holds me here? You not here.
Do you see? If I weren't here, you'd be,
and I could only wail at your fall
knowing you'd never rise again.
*selah*
Autobiographical, poetic commentary emphasizing compassion,
ones search for truth &
that which cannot be found except from within…
Consider well the altruism found here (to the great chagrin of 'detractors').

That you fall not . . .
I have many facets, but I’m NOT here to help the world. - “The world” couldn’t care less from all I’ve seen these seventy+ years here on THIS planet in the backwater of our galaxy! - They ONLY want to be entertained and/or paid attention to, and that’s simply not going to happen with me. - I am exclusively here to help seekers, those who have received the love for the truth and nothing less! - Go within, or go withOUT, in EVERY sense of that phrase! - It’s not about money, ego or even perception (Aldous Huxley’s “Doors of Perception” notwithstanding). - Believe me, I know! - Don’t be an insect like most I see who are caught in the •amber• of perception, not knowing that all that’s worth finding is far beyond, deep, deep within, way beyond emotion & thought! - It’s NOT an hard place to find…, not the Rabbit Hole Deeper I found when I was seventeen after six years of serious meditation, imagination & ego both hogtied & gagged in the backseat… - *selah* - My latest poetry/posts are here http://bloggetry.net/BlogSpot/ where I pull NO punches. - Don your deep-water waders…, eh? #smh
