DIMENSIONAL LAYERS
XCVIII.
Out of life's messy mixture
Poetry rises to the top
Or settles to the bottom.
Highest aspirations,
Lowest tribulations
Expressing into words.

~ revolving door ~
You seemed to be a door
Appearing - suddenly,
Unlike all other doors
Before,
Or any that would be.
Cautious, careful, curious
Was my approach,
Wondering if I should,
And if it is good
To try the latch.
Then swiftly,
Unexpectedly -
The other side!
Amazed, I gaze around,
I glance behind me.
There is no door!
There is no you!
I am alone!
Was I the door
That you passed through,
The other way?
If so,
Perhaps it helped you, too.

Threshold, unfold yourself.
Behold your inner treasures,
Measures,
Pleasures,
Radiating from the source
To course along
A misty glistening stream,
A wispy dream
Become reality;
Reality become
A better dream.

Only one
Who knows my heart
Will understand
Its words.

paradox
We try
To explain
Where we are
When we
Want to get there.
When we arrive
Where we're going -
We'll still be
Where we are.
The journey
Is the thing.

Once I wrote,
Where have I been
All my life?
And then - I knew.
It's vital to re-know
To be renown
After a second lifetime
I still must be
Remembered
To myself.
