One

 

 

 

I am not here

I am not there

I am not anywhere

I see you now

You see me here

Can you feel smell of snow

As it lashes against the sky

And watch the fleeting sleet as if hammers down  below

To form an ice shell that covers all the ground

Have you seen my shattered self that lies beneath the ground

Have you felt my bitter pain you gave up upon the greater pleasure as I lie here all alone

Take my hand and lead me to the once green promised land

and I will

Take you by the hand and show you where you fell

When Moses said he would

Part the path that led instead to a greater Promised Land?

Was it really so great, so wide, that newly parted path

Or did you see that, once you knew: he was talking shit instead?

There is no peace not change or fame when you tread the path of shame

Give instead your mighty self and see the Greater Self

And don’t think you have the answer

 for the silence once so grand

Is only silence in your head when your voice is asleep or dead

And your soul will fly the great Blue Sky and shine into the sun

for you think that your being will live on and on

but you know that you are wrong

 you are nothing

you are not here you are not anywhere

you are an imaginary something in the mind of a Greater One
