The Great Beyond... [8.29.17]

Run run, my Beloved DREAMER
Awash in silk -- hair flying -- helm trailing

Lit up from with the deepest all-consuming JOY
Brow kissed with the hot, hard-earned dew
Of a thousand lifetimes of EARNEST PURSUIT

Run run, my Beloved SEEKER
Run now with all that you have

While you still have TIME

Time FREE
To find your own HEART deep in the thicket

Tucked away from this hardened hurried world
Hidden down under it all with the FORGOTTEN FRUIT
Of a thousand brambles and countless thorns

Time HERE
To collect your people one by one

PRECIOUS TRAVELERS
Forgotten friends
As fast as you can
From the far flung corners of this VERDANT STAR

Time LEFT
To remember them
AND FEEL YOUR SOUL SMILE IN RECOGNITION
To grab hold of their hands
FORMING A CHAIN AGAINST THE DARK
Of all this hurting world
ALIGHT now, ALIVE now
AWASH WITH LOVE

Time AWAKE
To figure out how to meet up again
On the next trip you take around the SUN
HOW and WHERE you will FIND THEM here

What will RECOGNITION be for you?
More CERTAIN SIGNS make for less WASTED TIME
Faster and faster you will FLY with each rebirth

Run run, my Beloved WARRIOR
Wake up, seek out, remember, connect
To RETURN to where you left off
To get there as quickly as you can

No time to WASTE
You are at it again

Bare feet on cold certain soil
Legs burning, blood pumping
Seeking, beginning, believing

RUNNING out against the INEVITABILITY of TIME
While TRUSTING the UNDENIABLE TRUTH of DESTINY RISING

LIFETIME upon LIFETIME
Up the chain of KARMA
LESSONS flying like SPARKS under the WHEELS
Rubber meeting Road

SOULS
RETURNING
Seeking
Making
 Churning
BURNING

LIGHT
ONLY Light
ALWAYS Light

YOU
I
ME
US
WE

BELOVED
DIVINE
Unfolded
UNFOLDING

Beyond the HORIZON
And just under the VEIL

Duck the curtain like the velvet rope that curves
Like a serpent there before the line
WAITING

It is just inside down the stairs
The rich DARKNESS thick with ENERGY
Like the RESTLESS BEAT of Saturday Seekers

VIBRANT
Vibrate
Relentless
Driven
VITAL

UNDENIABLY
Purely
Viscerally
ALIVE

Run run, my Beloved FRIEND
Find them quickly now
Grab their hands
HOLD TIGHT
Hands locked in wrists like knots
In the thick rope of ships sailing

RUN INTO THE NIGHT

Find the loose corner of your CONSCIOUSNESS
And all together surge against it
Like a high stakes game COSMIC tug-of-war

Until it gives way and you can duck down
-- bringing a finger to your lips --
Shhhhh.... 

Before you DISAPPEAR
INTO the UNIMAGINABLY BEAUTY
Of the GREAT BEYOND
