Inbetween












Somewhere
between the moment
and its passing
there is a blank space
stuffed in those invisible nothings
you were there
a world hidden
waiting to be seen
not even revealed
but waiting.

I asked it "what purpose do you serve?"
Standing in the garden the Voice rose up like thunder
to make a lover of you
to show you the path to love
to be this love
which is beyond all others.
And in looking back
it was right
for it has gone beyond all conception of what I thought it could be.

This was the secret garden of time
where the true measure of our stay
unfolded before us
like a closet bursting at the seams
when it appeared empty.

In the empty moments
there was something rustling there
between the books lay volumes
that were carefully tucked
and hid.
You and I waited
not realizing
but wishing
the sheaves of our writing
worlds of story and creation
lay hidden inbetween
the great silence
and promise
of our becoming.

I gladly proclaim
that our old dry canals
got it wrong
and we are turning it 'round.
We must ressurect
not in some false sense of piety and purity
but in a raucus explosion of passionate wonder
that the world could be so alive
so vibrant
and living inside of us
ready to push us beyond what we thought was possible,
tearing at the veils
at each other
as we wax passionate
desiring
in the cosmic.
This is the drive
for that one true love
the Ultimate.
For it exists...

Come,
each of you
I have a gift.
You are not here because of an accident
but through a purpose
your soul has considered for you.
This is here eating and gnawing
at the tenderest parts of you
beseaching you to let go
and slip into these warm waters
where love will embrace you
and fill you
and change you.

The ancient pagans knew
the earth contained
a passion
which they became vessels for.
This passion was larger than they
hence they were mere vessels.
But in these alliances
we found aspects of our higher being
and religions would demonize their truth
and make dirty
what was profound.

So come,
you,
come into This.
Your soul knows there is something more
has known since forever
and you feel if only you could awaken from this slumber....

I am here to tell you
its all inside you
and there are no mistakes.
The way forward is simple
so simple in fact
that you can't really teach it
but it can be inspired
and sometimes passed
from one to the other.
Together we vibrate
the collective awake
and more and more awaken
as we dream of dams bursting
and the world coming alive
juicy
and delicious.

Somewhere in your own moments
there are those invisible places
which come alive to us
incomprehensible
seemingly
yet are wed to us so deep
they only seem new.

And in your own sweet time
in your own sweet way
you will find a love inside of you
so remarkable
and vast
you wondered how on earth you missed it
or lived without it.
It will take you
as it took me
as its cosmic lover
living in this simple moment
resurrected in the flesh
hidden in the inbetweens
and made manifest in this Now

I read this comment and smiled because I wanted to copy and paste the same verse... as I prepare for the Equinox like a bride veiled between the delicate layers between night and day... Spring awaits it's birth...spiraling energy seeks to muse and infuse... the day when the moonlight equals the daylight.. nature's gentle reflection of our own inner wedding.. yin and yang spiral as one....
