Out of Body Knowledge

I slipped off my body to fly in another realm. The cold clay awaiting my return lay upon the bed; a lump of the elements. The places I went, the deeds that I saw; no one had a clue of my attendance. Deeds good and bad I witnessed; recorded in mind for later review. Quantum slides in and out; from one universe to another; Recorded on electric sparks to, be replayed over again. Cosmic movies to be viewed by, mortal mind and spiritual eyes. How I hate re-dressing; the physical form leaves nearly everything to be desired. Even with the movies playing; the event is too uncomfortable; the entertainment; bittersweet. Body clothing is painful; Irritating to wear; confining to the soul and mortally devastating. It is pain; agony that no movie can depict; it distracts the mind. And so, I slip off my physical suit to live for awhile each night; as lump sleeps; I live.

Thank you so much, Connie. I just went with my feelings on that one. Everyone has some sort of pain, psychological, physical, emotional...I thought that if only everyone realized that they could find a moment of peace and serenity on Earth; life would be easier. We do have so much to look forward to, after this life, but we all must complete the cycle before that reward.

That's the beauty of poetry, Jack. Like an abstract painting, everyone can get something different, from it. Glad you stopped by again, to read and comment. Have a great day.
