This poem is wonderful. Did you write it? For me - I think of it without time stopping though - it's like looking into the self when the the ego has collapsed.
I especially like the part of looking into the chasm and the emptiness - the dying emptiness. And that somehow makes the Eternity sound so hopeful. mm > > > When time stops > and the world fades away > The senses collapse > and the ropes begin to fray > The heat of knowing > gradually growing > burns through the bonds > that lead me astray > > As the waves flow through me > one after one > Even though I'd thought one goes blind > staring into the sun > All words escape me > and shrinks the thinking mind > As the life-force rises > on its ecstatic run > The sun shines brightly > and my blind eyes see > finally that I am > That Eternity > > I argue and fight > and flame and flaunt my might > but when I look deep > deep inside the chasm > there is but emptiness > as I deal with it's dying spasm > I am dying yet I live > because I'm not whom I see > finally I am -- That Eternity > > > Moq_Discuss mailing list > Listinfo, Unsubscribing etc. > http://lists.moqtalk.org/listinfo.cgi/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org > Archives: http://lists.moqtalk.org/pipermail/moq_discuss-moqtalk.org/ > http://moq.org.uk/pipermail/moq_discuss_archive/ > > No virus found in this incoming message. > Checked by AVG Free Edition. > Version: 7.5.516 / Virus Database: 269.19.19/1258 - Release > Date: 2/4/2008 10:10 AM > > No virus found in this outgoing message.
