THE BEAUTIFUL ROOMMATE
How could I ever forget the day I discovered,
The Beloved had returned with me from Heaven,
And against all that the jurists declare,
Had taken up Residence in my Heart.
Since that day, when Grace was made manifest,
It has not been easy for all who inhabit this House,
Most tragically for our roommate, the mind,
For She refuses to speak in his language.
“This is not helpful!” he turned to me, frustrated.
In spite of relentless, desperate enquiries,
She will not reveal to the poor fellow,
In any way comprehensible to intellect,
The Who, What, When, Where, Why of Herself.
“This is not helpful!” he turned to me, overwrought.
And he is not alone in the discord She sows,
For without asking, She has gone through me,
Tossing traditions long reverenced, held dear,
Breaking “beliefs” into tiny pieces, unrecognizable...
Leaving the mess for me to clean up.
When I asked if She might stop for awhile,
Or help, at the least, in cleaning the mess,
The Astounding Confusion left in Her Wake,
She Kissed my Heart, and I Fainted in Ecstasy.
“This is not helpful,” the mind bemoaned.
For reasons that remain a Mystery,
She left a piece of Faith intact upon the mantle,
But when I asked what this Faith could be for,
She Kissed my Heart, and I Fainted in Ecstasy.
“She will not help.” the mind sighed.
When the Light of Her Presence became too great,
I tried to ignore Her, locking myself in my Room,
But found Her there, within myself, as my very Soul,
And overwhelmed by Her Beauty, Fainted in Ecstasy.
“I have no need of help,” I whispered, then Vanished.
Had I foreseen what would befall this House,
How in handing The Beloved the Key to my Heart,
She would Destroy these walls, and all within,
Leaving this Illumined Ruin…
I would have Fainted in Ecstasy.

AFTERNOON
Someone
- our parents, teachers, analysts -
hypnotizes us to see the world and construe it in the right way.
These others label the world,
attach names and give voices to the beings and events in it,
so that thereafter,
we cannot read the world in any other language
or hear it saying other things to us.
so that we become undeaf, unblind and multilingual,
thereby letting the world speak to us in new voices
and write all its possible meanings
in the new book of our existence.
Be careful in your choice of hypnotists.

The writer, at his most productive moments, just flows.
He gives of that which is uniquely himself.
He makes himself naked,
recording his nakedness in the written word.
Herein lies some of the terror
which frequently freezes a writer,
preventing him from producing.
that must be entailed in letting others learn
how one has experienced
or is experiencing the world.

Excursions away from peace.
