Image of A Ghost
Should one’s delineation
of the Mothers voice,
be presumed sound
in virtue and understanding?
The complexity of Her creation’s
forget the limitations of their speech,
amidst the abundance of sensory experience.
To feel, to listen, to understand.
Her children scour
for their frequency.
Having not realized,
they seek only in the light.
Yet,
She exists in shadow.
When the deity approaches
it may move through you,
to mend and to build.
In return,
taking what is owed
in preparation for a second;
a day not given.
The fallacies of our creation
suspend us in abandoned wonderment.
A selfishness to approbate
continual satisfaction,
with mere and bleak
understanding of what’s secular.
Thus,
there exists solace in
Her storms; power and rage.
Existence remains presented
in fragments of illusion,
cut with callus intent
to avert our gaze.
The journey appears as a window.
As She declares the way open,
take no more than a seconds pause.
The ledge becomes you;
Jump.
