closer


the surface of this world
is like a painting

a painting
ripe with symbols

symbols
that point like signposts
to the deeper places

the richer places

the places that you
have felt
with your intuition

the places
that have nothing to do
with this place

no words
no ideas

~

my eyes
close

my heart opens

then my self

then i am
no more

  5. pauline - i'm not sure. i haven't really thought about what's left behind. there are memories, visual tags, sensory pieces, but energy - well i don't know. you see i don't have any experience of ghosts and so i reserve comment on such matters. what do you think? steven

  8. "...and then I am no more." And yet, on some level you (and we all) "are" always...

  9. I think energy is the most mutable of forces and that when our bodies die, the energy that made us alive mutates into something else - I like to think of death as our "change form" day. WHAT we become is open for discussion...
